Fathers Day

Post by Bushman »

Wishing all Fathers today a Happy Fathers Day and hope you have a relaxing day planned. For me all my kids will join us for dinner tonight. It is suppose to be a great day and for dinner I am smoking a 7 lb Brisket that I started two hours ago.

Thank you, and Happy Father's day to you as well.
Ours will be here today with the 5 grandkids so I'm feeding them corn on the cob, salmon, black cod (fished out of the deep up in Alaska by yours truly), potato salad and steaks.
I don't know if our 16 month old youngest granddaughter has had corn on the cob yet so that's going to be fun.
My Primo grill will be busy today!

Summer solstice, I did a work party out at my friends property in the San Juan Islands last weekend as they have about 100 people out camping on his 40 acres to celebrate every year.

Happy Fathers Day to all fathers, daughters, sons, pets, and partners! Enjoy and share your time together well from far and near. Have a dram or three later today and fire up the grill or order out! Celebrate don’t celibate!

Cheers,
J

Enjoying a few drams after steak and lobster dinner at my son’s house, served between NBA games.

Happy Father's day to all of you guys. We're actually spending the weekend AWAY from the kids.(they're 27 and 22)
Four day weekend in Washington wine country.
Never a cheap date, taking the wife and the RV to wine country, but it keeps her happy.

Nice!
Shared some Bourbon with my son in law, ate steak and cooked for 14.
It was a good day!

Should be a great get-away. RVing to you is probably like boating is to me. Enjoy your time we have some great wines from Chelan to Walla Walla.

Smoked about 10 lbs of baby backs, a dozen sausages, and some fresh corn. My daughter and both grandsons arrived from Switzerland and my son and his soon to be bride were over to celebrate.

It was a good day

Went to the swimming pool (only just reopened the other day) and ate inside a restaurant!

My kids don't come and visit... they're still a little too young to be able to kick them out of the door!
