Saturday: D&D
Isaac has been working on his own D&D champaign for several months. He has spent a lot of time on it. It isn't finished, but it is far enough along that we decided that we should just start. We started last week but it was just a introduction section.
Today we went into the forest. We met a shady character but nothing happened. We met a wandering traveler and didn't buy his shiny rocks. We ran into a group of goblins. Joshua is the most charismatic of all of us (and I was a warhorse) so he decided to talk to the goblins and see if we could just go safely by them.
They wanted his shield. (Of course not.) They wanted his sword. (No way.) They wanted something shiny. Oh no! We didn't buy any shiny gems. Without missing a beat, Joshua offers them the shiny wrapper of his granola bar. They decided they also wanted the granola bar. And, just like that, we were able to continue on our way.

Friday: no school
Yesterday Joshua came home with his baritone. It's so big compared to him. Luckily though, the school has enough baritones that he can have one at school and one at home, so he doesn't have to lug it back and forth.
Today was nice. We went on a bike ride in the morning. The weather was lovely and the road was nice and smooth. (There have been a ton of scooters and roller blades now that the road is smooth. It's been fun to see.)
In the afternoon we went to the other rock climbing place. It was a good time. There were some fun routes. Joshua only had a medium good time, but we did a take-away and he bought himself a donut and then read for a bit.
