Father's Day

Dad with his 1949 Hudson.
It still seems weird not to call and wish him happy Father's Day.

He was not always an easy guy to get along with, but he was who he was, and if you didn't like it, it was your loss. It was a lesson I'm still trying to learn.

Scarecrow is planning to spend Father's Day preparing burnt offerings on the grill. He started a couple of batches of beer a few weeks ago, which should be about ready to drink. I expect a good time will be had by all.

For all the fathers out there, it's a tough job; thanks for doing it.

  1. Having a relationship with my father has been/is a continual lesson. He and I banged heads a lot in the past. He was not an easy guy in earlier years - partially due to brain trauma and meds. It wasn't until later years that I came to appreciate certain qualities about him -- course he mellowed a lot too.

    Your father has quite the jaunty challenging presence that jives with what you say. Not a wall flower. Cool pic.

    Hope the grill offerings weren't too burnt and the home brew just right.
