Nothing cool from my boys (ages 4 and 2), but I don't want anything either. Might take the AMG SL out for a spin if this dang rain ever clears up.

I gave my Dad a hangover...honest. We sat on the porch too long and drank too much last night. Solved all the world's problems too.

But, in addition to the hangover, I gave him one of the three custom Berry Hill Farm flags I had made. He's flag nut and I designed a flag for our farm and had some small ones made so we'd have one to fly from the mast of our canal boat while in France. Since he lives at the sovereign farm of Berry Hill, a flag seemed cool.

dinner of crabs casino, crab cakes, salmon stuffed w/crab, hearts of palm and asparagus, and a nice chardonnay. Everyone (wife, daughter, son, and me) behaved. A 5 drawer, wheeled craftsman tool box from W/D/S. AND an hour plus on my R1100R this morning before the temperature reached 90+.
Happy Father's Day to all fathers.
regards,
Mark

I visited my mom and hung around with several of my sibs and their kids, got nice calls from my kids and put a yellow lily on my dad's grave.

All in all a lovely weekend.

My 5 year olds mission for the day was to serve breakfast in bed even though I was already out of bed for hours, she made good on her wish.

and it's the best feeling in the world.

Thank you very much Mistress.

I went to a wedding Saturday night and while we were out my daughter made a cake. I though that was pretty cool. She even cleaned up the kitchen. She's 14.

My girlfriend got us tickets to see Deep Purple with Edgar Winter in July.

I went to visit my Mom and stepdad yesterday. They got me a case of hand rolled cigars. They were pretty good. They went down to Ybor City to get them.

I bought my stepdad some nice pipe tobacco.

Woohoo

I got a "rich" dinner at Ruth's Chris, and a new hammock to relax in afterwards.
