Greg,

With the exeption of the Barrie Flea Market and CC events, most of our trips are day trips. One day out of the weekend dedicated to the hobby does not put too much strain on my family life. I am lucky to have an understanding wife, and Bob's wife likes me hanging around Bob to keep an eye on him.

You are lucky in that you can walk to your truck, and you have one of the foremost authorities on CMPs as your neighbour. The trick is to get your oldest interested in the hobby and kill two birds with one stone (work on the truck and keep an eye on the boy).

Childhood is fleeting, so taking care of the kid(s) usually trumps hobbies. I guess one needs to find the proper balance in life and set priorities. When Jesse is a little older, I'll be dragging him along to the barn more often to earn his keep.
