Happy Fathers Day



My parents having Lunch at Racing North Turn in Daytona Beach today.

My Dad Playing Golf

Good morning everyone. I want to wish my Dad and all the other Fathers out there a very Happy Fathers Day today. My Dad has always been a great father. He is always willing to listen and he gives great advice. He is also one of the smartest people that I know. If you didn't know already my Father is an astrophysicist. He also has a great sense of humor. When I was a kid my friends were kind of intimidated by my Father but he tried to make them feel at ease. I remember one time when a friend of mine came to our house and my Dad answered the door and made this face with his hands upside down over his eyes and sang "Junior Bird Man". That was so funny watching a 6.6 guy in a suit singing that. LOL I also remember another time when he had to take a trip to Florida to do something with the Navy and he brought me along. It was just me and him. That was really special. We went allot together as a family but nothing beats one on one time with your Dad when you're a kid. Thanks for all the great memories Dad. I Love you.

I hope all of the fathers out there get to do something that you enjoy doing today, as for me I am going to do some yard work today. I love working in my yard.

My sons Mike and John called me yesterday to wish me a happy Fathers day and my daughter Cindy and my son John also called this morning. Mike has to work today so he wasn't going to be able to call today, I really enjoyed talking to him.

My son John called last night to tell me that he ordered me a Walmart gift card for fathers day and that I should have it this week. I am going to buy a new lawn mower with it. Thanks in advance for the mower John, I really appreciate it, my current mower is on it last legs and sputters as I mow. There is nothing more satisfying than mowing the lawn, you go out and the yard looks like crap and then you spend a little time mowing and it looks great. It's that instant gratification thing. :)

I hope you all have a great day.
