It’s a big day around here today. Not because I have a (living) dad, and not because I’m anybody’s dad (stepdad, yeah, but that doesn’t really count for much – let’s just say I’m not anticipating any cards, ugly ties, or phone calls today). No, the big thing for me is that it’s the Father’s Day Fly-In Pancake Breakfast at the little airport in our town. That means that the skies will be full of single-engine planes, ultralights, and maybe even choppers (last year they were doing helicopter rides that flew over my house every 20 minutes or so). <\/p>\n
Otherwise, it’s gonna be hot (again) around here. We haven’t had a lot of rain lately, and the grass is getting kind of crunchy (and not growing, which I consider a bonus). So there should be lots of pool time today. I really ought to brew a batch of beer, but I don’t think that’s gonna happen. If I’m really ambitious I’ll get one kegged. Otherwise, I think I’ll just hang out by the pool and watch the airplanes.<\/p>\n
And try not to think about having to go to work tomorrow.<\/p>\n
For those of you who are dads, or have dads, or have dads in your lives, have a happy Father’s Day. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
