I got a book on my other favorite hobby... beer!
Lost my Dad last December, and that hurts every day, enjoyed the time with the kids and the Fazh in law

steve'62 · 06-17-2012, 11:28 PM

Sounds like everybody got what they wanted, so sorry for the ones that couldn't be with us today. I got to wrench on the truck all day saturday and spent today with the family.

Hey, I grew up in Galt. I was back there last fall for a wedding. Lots of memories there, but it would be tough to move back after being out west for 30 years!

I picked up a set of new Patriot ceramic coated headers for Fathers Day, after spending the day with my boy at the car show. Was a beautiful sunny day and my bald head shows it!

Cash for the truck fund! And a t-bone steak dinner. Great weekend overall.

Tim,
Thats the best gift, I lost my dad a while back and miss the hang out times'

I think Darrah had a lot to do with my present since we have her rockers on the way.

Anyway they picked it up at Tractor Supply.

My wife took me to see Bill Engvall on Friday Night! Great Show and a fantastic Fathers Day.

**MisterC** · 06-18-2012, 07:19 PM

No items for the truck, but I did get something to "recharge my battery".

Father's Day package at the spa, which includes 90 minute massage and a Gentlemen's Pedicure.

rambler · 06-19-2012, 12:19 AM

Posted this on another post,, but still pretty proud of it... also got a poster, have to get it scanned to show.. I prefer these things, as if its "store bought" means I usually paid for it one way or another.. LOL.. ( did get some new shirts though.. )

Haha. I never have been but that all changed on a recent trip to Vegas. When done at a spa, it's very relaxing.

Don't get me wrong, I would have rather had the cash put in my truck fund, but I love the thought that my family put into it.

PAWS 72 · 06-22-2012, 02:55 AM

set of side pipes for the longbed.My son asked what he could get me for father's day day ,so I told him and his friend asked '' are you serious'' I said yes and they got my Speedway book out and ordered them.I didn't know it.

Here's the kicker,his friend lost his dad about 4 years ago to cancer.Him and my son were in school together from kindergarden to graduation and he asked could he call me dad also,what can you say when they ask you that when they think so much of you?

Didn't mean to hijack thread but I had to get it off my chest.His father was mean to him and his mom.
