Fall Camping – Sleeping Bag Test: #5DadsGoWild

October 1, 2019

Last year we froze. I bought the cheapest, last minute tent I could find ($29 poorly spent!) and I got in my sleeping bag after a long first day of meeting the other Dads at the first ever 5 Dads Go Wild camping trip. I was snuggled in but couldn’t help feeling the breeze from what I soon ...

Pink Shirts to Stop Bullying and Be Kind

February 15, 2019

Bullying is the worst. During a pretty long period at school, I was bullied. I was jumped on, called names, made fun of, and pushed around. I’m sure that most of the time they thought it was just good fun. Well it was, for them. It made me feel like an outcast. I felt like I ...
