Hey, we owe all of ourselves a big happy father's day - - hang in there, you can make it. And then come the grandkids -- our reward for not killing our kids when they were teen agers. ......

Got a card from my youngest son.

Front:
Dad, I will never forget many of the things you've told me.


Inside:
Or understand them
or do them, really.
But I'll remember them.


At least I raised him to be honest.

Gee, looks like everyone is on vacation or very busy. Just got off Skype with our youngest son and his weeone - - going on three. She is a cutie - - we have so much fun with her. She had to sing us a bunch of songs. This is their first. He is so funny - - he says every day of having her gives him a new appreciation of us. He had no idea taking care of him would have been so much work. Interesting how our perspective changes when viewed from a different angle or experience level.

OK, heading in to keep the blonde company. Have a gudurn,

Bob

Happy Father's Day to all, especially the boy I never knew I had. Before you all get confused, I'm talking about Lary. Things picked up a bit here last week so I wasn't able to get back on much. It was a good week overall, lots of tasks completed. They roll the sidewalks up around here on Sunday's so our only option for supper was the truckstop diner which sucks and is 15 miles away, or the bowling alley's bar, which only has frozen pizza. we went for the pizza. Last night supper was to die for though. We had walleye filets, thin sliced, fried potatoes and a salad with raspberry vinaigrette dressing. If I could have gotten sweet tea too it would have been perfect!

Reading through last weeks breakroom brought some old names to the top. Glad to see some of the elderly and infirmed that Scott talks about getting along so well. Checking out for the night, y'all stay safe.

If the drunks don't go to bed around here soon I'm going to have to go 5-0 on somebody.

Oh boy - - great response - - which just increases the drama and stimulates the imagination. ......................good man. .............

"The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth." Scott - - that one reminded me of something that my dad used to jest - - when I die, bury me with my Model T - I was never in a hole that thing could not get me out of.

Bark sounds about the same - - wonder what he looks like??? ....

Gorgeous day down here, so grab a cup of ph00 and get to work. Have a gudurn.

Bob
