[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd tell him to ride his bike. I'd take or go get him though, if there were lightning.  [/quote]

If it were lightning, I don't think he'd need to turn on the sprinkler.

He should ride his bike and hang out for the hour. And really, 20 min to ride 2 miles? I run 2 miles faster than that. Surely he can at least hit 10mph hour on his bike, making it 12 minutes each way. He will survive. [/quote]

It's slow riding. 20 minutes is pretty optimistic. Several busy streets to walk accross, a few hills, two traffic lights...

I'm not trying to make this sound like he's going uphill in the snow both directions, but I see his point that it's a pain for $5/ day. Im just more of the mindset that he got himself into it.... My husband is more sympathetic, so I was curious what other opinions are.

DSS is also a jr camp counselor all day, we pick him up at 5pm and have dinner. So, this task really does kill all his free time in the evening. (Again, worlds tiniest violins, I know, I'm just trying to show his point of view)[/quote]
