    Taking the girls to sleepaway camp after breakfast tomorrow morning - should be a nice long mid-day listening sesh lubricated with either bourbon or IPA's (or both)... followed by a nap. I probably shouldn't look forward to that as much as I do I suppose!

    Happy Father's Day to you all out there - I hope you get to spend it in a way which makes you happy!

    We're driving to Minnesota to visit the zoo and the childrens' museum. Family trips aren't necessarily relaxing, but no gift can replace the look on my kids' face when they experience things for the first time.

    Happy Fathers Day Gents. We went out to dinner tonight to celebrate, but if the rain lets up, ol' dads (me) is going to hit the mtn. bike trails at dawn. Its been raining here for a week straight, and I have been itching to get out. Fingers are crossed.
    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

    My two grandsons have been visiting since Wed. and my oldest daughter and her husband are coming to have dinner with us and to collect them. As far as my young grandsons go, both their visit, and their departure are a welcome gift.

    Happy Father's Day.

    A quiet day at home with the family away from the crowds - going to play some catch with the boys and do some bbq'ing for pulled pork later.

    Music and cold beverages for the right mood!

    Enjoy your day!

    Father's Day gift was given little early for me (Friday). My daughter couldn't wait any longer to give me the gift she had made for me in school. So cute.

    Nice pics Ken, I can only assume your feet look swollen from using that magnetized bracelet looking for lost jewelry in the sand. :)

    ...or maybe not. Could just be the many trips to the bar too.
