How did you spend your father's day?

I took a nap, answered phone calls from the sons, then taking my father to dinner later this afternoon. Then perhaps a little river monstering tonight if the rain stays away. :hello:

Went back home to visit Dad & mom, about 100 mile trip, brother and sisters where there. Dad is 77, we did a little MDing until he wore out, found 1 wheaty.
Then just sat around and visited, mom made a little brunch of ham, home fries, baked beans, and shrimp cocktail, ymmmm, good.
Just sittin here at home now having a few alcholic beverages, on vacation for a few days.
Happy Fathers Day everyone.

Received tel calls from off spring and his two sequential off springs, who, as a group after saying 'hi", suggested that they had financial problems that granny could fix up sigh.

Obviously they come from true treasure hunting stock. snicker

Re: How did you spend your father's day?

I don't have a family (never married, no dad), so I didn't even recognize it until I got a message from an X-GF's daughter saying, "Happy Fathers Day! I know your not my father, but for a while you were a father figure. Thank you for those great years. I miss you and love you!". That really made my day.
