Go to the shop early and work on installing the new vented brakes and new 911 struts on the 914. Install the new A arm bearings too while I am at it. Maybe start on the engine assembly and cleaning. I feel like I am turning into Qarl, effin new parts are stackin up around here when they should be going on the car!

Might play with the Elise a little... but I am tired.

Father-in-law is coming over in the evening for Chinese Food.

Oh... and I'll call my Dad in Michigain tomorrow and wish him Happy Father's Day. Unfortunately, he is never in Florida on Father's Day... sad.gif

I plan on taking the family out for dinner. Visit my Dad.
Watch US Open golf.
Did anyone catch the story on my Dad today (BUd Chapman) during the US Open coverage, the oldest US Open entrant ever at 82 years still eligible to qualify carrying a 1 handicap.

First let us address Lisa's avatar.
This item should be illegal or at best deleted .Even as a very happily married man it is pictures like this that remind me of my days as the only straight guy in a ballet troup of about 40 young ladies. Very fond memories indeed idea.gif

Back to the subject at hand,
Ribs in the smoker since yesterday eve, Called pop this morning, breakfast in bed and now headed down the street to the marina to meet another couple for a day of sailing on Miss Mari's Catalina 22. Probably a few beers and a shot or two of Cassadores. Maybe pull each other on the surfboard behind the boat for laughs blink.gif

Have a great day everyone!

JT and Miss Mari

Spent the weekend up in the high country with the fam. Came home today to have our dads over for swimming and a BBQ.

Posted by: Jake Raby Jun 19 2005, 05:18 PM

I spent the day with my dad and also scored another VW for the collection- But this one is for him.. Its a 1974 Type 181 or Thing... It needs a resto but all I plan on doing is getting it running and stopping and letting him use it around town... He enjoyed the thrill of the hunt since we used to buy, sell and trade VWs 2-3 times a week and have not done it in a few years together.

When we returned we dug up some earth worms and took a trip off the side of the hill to our fish pond, wet a hook and came home with 6 Bass and 3 catfish before the rain ran us home... Now its time to give him his gift- I'm taking him to Vegas next weekend because he loves to play slots and win money and he has never been to Vegas before, neither have I.....

Just got off the phone with my Dad.

I'm surprised he was home and not down at the track betting the ponies. =-)

Almost 70 and was telling me about his new girlfriend. I can't keep up with 'em.

Guess he's going to hit the beach/swim today and see G friend tomorrw for some extra curricular activites... I need to wrk out more..... laugh.gif


Happy Fathers Day. biggrin.gif

The prodigal children have returned, so it's sort of been a lazy family day. Dad's BBQing, sister's cooking, everyone else is kicking back, doing nothing. Father's Day is great!
