A nice relaxing visit with the kids, and a few sips of some exquisite whisky.

A nice quiet day. Hope the kids and grandson drop by but if not --- quiet with an adult beverage of choice is fine.

I would love a nice quiet day. I'm not going to get it, but I would love it

Only my 2nd Father’s Day so still getting used to it. Overall I want a quiet peaceful day and maybe to get the boat out with the family.

A visit from the only grandson would be nice, but they, the father is stationed in Northern Manitoba as RC, so that probably won't happen.

I think if the weather holds up, it will be a nice bbq with the kids at home, and then hopefully a range visit to hit steel out past 1 km.

I'm kinda hoping one or more of my kids takes me to Ramona's for pizza. If not, I may take myself. Thinking either the spicy italian sausage, or the Philly steak.

Got what I've been wanting for a good while last weekend so I'll just say one good nights sleep. Been a long long time without one.

Oh man. The boss asked me the other day if we should have another kid. I told her the same thing when she asked me before we had our boy. I'm just hoping she listens this time. I'm getting too old for this

For fathers day I always ask for the same thing. Let me sleep in, maybe even cook me breakfast. I'm easy to please.

Default Fathers day

Well my Son's bought me a flight on a B17 bomber. 45 Min flight out of Medicine Hat on June 30th. They both will accompany with me on this flight.
This will be hard to beat on future Fathers Day's. Medicine Hat is one of 3 only stops in Canada , Cranbrook and Victoria are the other . So looking forward to it Phil.

Before after and possibly during. The kids are my blessing, so are their significant others, and then there’s the Grandson! That’s what the day is about, being wowed by the ones you helped create and those they helped create.

Nice quiet day with my wife, who gave me the 2 greatest kids. That is what "Father's Day" is all about...

PS: And I hope those 2 kids don't forget that either...
