Pinewood Derby

As you all know there are times in our lives when Dad and Son are not to be disturbed and one of these times are when the Pinewood Derby comes to town. For those who arent familiar with the Pinewood it is a racing event for Cub Scouts, with the help of parents, build their own cars from wood, usually from kits containing a block of pine, plastic wheels and metal axles.
I don't think that I have ever seen two kids so excited about a little car race
(yes, I said a little car race. I was put in my place).
Mont and Connery had been working on the cars for a week yes, cars. Mont had helped Connery sanded it with his dremal and Connery helped Dad spray paint it and with Moms finger nail paints and some nascar stickers it was all about Mont and Connery. They did a wonderful job and just as Mont was putting the last tire on the car.............it split.
Connery was crushed and Daddy was so upset, but no fear Dad told Connery to run down to our friends and get another piece of wood, with only a couple hours and the car having to be turned in by 9:00 AM the next morning to weight in Connery and Mont were able to pull off an amazing car that not only made them closer in being Father and Son but, Connery won 1st Place yes, First.
Way to go Connery and fast working Dad. You guys did great and Moms proud of you.
