Bert and the boys have a big weekend!

The boys had a good time at home while the girls were at the beach. They had a big 2-day bonfire fueled by all of the wood that the recent storm blew down. The boys helped Bert work in the yard, work on the shed, work in the garage, etc. And Bert made them a new toy hand gun out of scrap wood. Later, they all took a ride in Jeb Stuart's 1960 Mercedes 190 convertible that he is restoring.

Meals consisted of Cap’n Crunch and pizza and they got to eat in the TV room because that is the rule for "boy boy" time. In the evenings, they watched Brain Bug, Men in Black and Johnny Quest. The boys got to stay up late and sleep in the big bed with Bert. Saturday night at about 11:30 as Trip was finally running out of steam and drifting off to sleep, his last words were "this day just keeps getting better and better!"
