I guess I'll be the one to start this thread this year.

But happy father's day to the dad's and step dad's grooming the next generation of race car drivers.

Happy father's day!

I've had a decent day, stayed up trying to watch the 24 all the way through failed and passed out at some point. 

Woke up with two hours to go in the race. Still don't know what happened to the Corvette. Mowed, weed eated and trimmed trees. Edged everything and cleaned up. Decided it was time for a beer, took a sip, looked at the clock and it was  only 10:30.

Oh well, it's father's day.

Been sitting out on the back porch drinking beer and watching the wind blowing the trees for a couple hours. I haven't done this in probably twenty years. Feels pretty good.

Hope everyone else's day is going as good as mine is. Love y'all.

My birthday was yesterday.  Fathers Day today.  I’m on vacation at the beach house.  Had a very nice “wake up” followed by the kids cooking breakfast.

Can’t ask for much better than this.

Woke up early and watched the last 4 hours of Le Mans. Smoked a tri tip roast. Getting ready to eat and enjoying a beer.

This wasn't the right card for my dad, but I hope someone on here got this:

Got back from a week in the Canadian wilderness last night. My wife informed me that as of next week, she’s off of a certain medication and, OBGYN recommendations be damned, we can commence to trying to make next year a much happier Father’s Day. 

 

Today we went and visited Angela’s grave, saw my parents, and are seeing my in-laws for dinner. As good a day as I could hope for in the circumstances.

Happy father's day all.

My son and I got pancakes together, went to the park, children's museum, and bought a few books from the used bookstore.  It was pretty good.

Now he's back at his mom's for the night, but my dog and I will celebrate this evening with some netflix together.

I did.  I "feel the love" from my three boys.  Not a mushy card in the bunch...

I got to clean the gutters.. which actually was great. They needed it and it had been bothering me for some time.

I also found some problem spots that I got to try my new tool out on:

It was awesome. I put in copper mesh backer and spray foamed some openings in the house. The foam is much more controllable with the gun and the long probe makes it easy to get it into places that the awkward spray can doesn't work on. However, the gun cleaner is acetone and if you get the foam "runoff" on your hands it's not coming off with soap. So, definitely don't get it on your hootus.

We also got to have a nice extended family meal and time outside in beautiful weather.

Unfortunately I also got to fish keys out of our locked minivan when my wife did her absent minded professor routine. 45 minutes with a coat hanger and pliers later and we were back on the road.
