so
I spent yesterday
in the morning doing the big brother thing
and helping my sister train her horse
and
then in the afternoon doing the uncle thing
with all the little people
we went to a park/campground type place
that had go-carts and mini golf and stuff
lazed by the lake and watched the kids swim
then pulled a huck finn
[shirtless with khakis rolled up]
to take the neices and nephews
out on canoe rides
then it was off to go-carts
for some fun
my neice was too short to drive her own cart
so she sat in front of me on mine
and we schooled everyone else
my nephew was the first to crash
getting stuck on a boundary tires
after not making a turn
my other nephew followed suit
shortly afterwards
and while the attendant guy
was getting first nephew unstuck
the second was rammed by his younger sister
who failed to navigate the same turn
in the same fashion he did
luckily everyone was alright
but they were a bit scared
so mother and my younger sister
piled into their carts with them
and
in the end good fun was had by all
in other news
the second date with the swiss girl is on thursday
[the first was saturday]
who will be forever more known
as "the swiss miss"
because
apparently she bears a striking resemblence
to the girl on the packaging
besides being a lil hottie
I think what appeals to me most about her
is her grace
without being wussy
she can manhandle a stallion
when she needs to
but otherwise she moves with poise
a certain sense of dignity and decorum
of course
she comes from a fairly old and respectable
european family
so it rather makes sense
but watching her trot and canter her horse
did stir desires for another type of riding
indeed
anyway
enough oogling and drooling for me
