Happy Father's Day

June 14, 2013

Made some calls on the way to Raleigh Wednesday and ended up on the floor at my old high school. I've been in there a few times since they made me leave, but only in the gym. We walked through the halls and classrooms, saw all of my athletic and academic trophies that I earned; yes each and every one that I earned was on display.....or should that be each and every one I earned were on display? That question should give you a clue as to where they is, ain't, are, or aren't. They're going to make a middle school out of this, fun to go through a quick walk through. 

Sum sum summertime, and the living's easy. Mixed metaphors there but you know what I mean. 

Speaking of the US Army and their 238th birthday today, saw nephew Kevin and his crew Wednesday night. Been a long time, but now that he is an officer in the US Coast Guard in Elizabeth City we hope to see him, Heather, Caroline and Grace much more often. That dog is so sweet, but I sense he has the devil eyes, the devil eyes I tell you, DEVIL EYES!

This weekend the weather will be absolutely perfect for offshore fishing, and the Fishin Optishin will soon be on his way. We don't have a chance, but it will be fun. Since we're all out of fathers around here we get to make our own plans for the weekend, and it involves going to a few artificial reefs off our coast. 

Maybe some pictures next week, but I'll leave you with a picture of a car model which would be a suitable replacement for the motorcycle.....someday, not today but one day in the future. It's a BMW Z-4, such a beautiful shape of a car, and of course as SWMBO has decreed, a convertible. So let it be written so let it be done! Anyway, this was seen in the parking lot of a customer in Williamsburg last week; could they have picked an uglier color? 

And what a great post! At no where in here did I post the video of my sister-in-law brushing the "icing she sat in" off the back of TAR's dress! Yea me!
