Ice Cream - End of April

 

Yummy Ice Cream!

Imagine RIT

 

Here I am learning how to be a DJ.

In this place, I got to make my own print using an old ink press.

This is cool, a bit of work, but kinda awesome

They even brought out the original Spirit - the RIT Tiger Mascot. They made him into a rug.  Now that is cool!

In the College of Business they build the world largest kerplunk setup.

Since it had finished off the last set of pulls, I helped get it reloaded.

They afterwords I got to get the first pull.

It's time for my favorite part - playing video games!

This one is awesome!

Mom popping in behind me.

On to the next game.

Dad watching me playing a game.

Me and Dad both playing video games.

Gamer creed held on to.  I won in the That Damn Goat competition!

Won me a Goat!

Sword attacking a shield was kinda cool

I was one of the beta testers for the human size hamster wheel, so I need to get my practice in it.

Time for some more video game playing

Light saber fencing with Dad.

9th Grade Dance

 

Off to the 9th Grade Dinner and Dance - should be fun.

Ever Break a Driver?

 

What the heck! I replace the grip on my driver and it breaks on the first swing.  This sucks!

Passover

 

It's time for a Passover Seder

It's a long meal, but a good tradition.

Escape Room!

 

We escaped for this room!  Woop!

Golf

 

Eh - it's a bit wet and rainy, still seems like a fun time to go golfing to me.

And that it not a bad drive, given the weather.

Total Eclipse (of the clouds)

 

Well, it is 100% cloudy for the full solar eclipse hitting here.  Will we even notice?

Somewhere over there is the sun about to be covered by the moon.

Hard to tell at the moment if much is happening, the moon is eating the sun, and we can't see that.

Okay, it has gotten dark.  Like one instant it was still light, and then it just started getting dark...

Okay and in just 1 minute later it was full on darkness - WOW!

I mean just wow!  You can barely see me, yet we can see a sunrise in the west!  It turned out soooo cool!

And just like that its back to full day light.  Even if we couldn't see the sun, it was such an experience and we got to see such cool stuff where the sun moved through the clouds...

Zoo Trip

 

The big cats are always my favorite thing at the zoo.

It was a nice sunny day, and in the morning the animals were out.

It is nice that all the animals have nice outside enclosures nowadays.

Check it out, the Red Panda is out and about!

Yep, that is a lion's butt behind me behind glass.

There is an otter just behind me, he looks awesome!

Now it's time to wander on the logs...

Okay I am going to do the rope walk, I got this.

It's actually a lot harder when you're bigger/taller... You have to push down on the top rope to keep your balance.

Half-way there....

This is definitely tougher then it looks.

The end is in sight!

I did it!

Darts!

 

I love me some crazy darts!

I've got really good at darts!

Minigolf - April First

 

I need to work on my putting. So I headed off to the mini-golf course. 

I do love me a nice weather day in early April, for some mini-golf.

Some times you get that hole in one, some times you don't
