Happy Fathers Day...

Happy Father's Day to my dad, brother, brother in laws, and all fathers in the field of friendship out there reading my blog today! I hope you all have the chance to take time with your respective children and take some time to smell the roses.
I am certain Scout is snoring at Skip's feet right about now, as they are both out on a fishing trip. This is the first fishing trip that Scout has gone on with her dad. She usually has to stay home with me.

My dad is resting, after triple by-pass heart surgery, in the condo in Seattle. Adam (his home nurse these days) took some time off to go play at the condo over at Lake Chelan. Dad thought he would be feeling up to going with Adam, but not quite yet. My family is doing well, and I got a chance to talk to dad who seems to be recouperating nicely and therapy seems to be working on his stability and mobility. Thank you all for your prayers and notes about his health and we are all so happy that it is behind us.

It was fun today to watch all of the soldiers, sailors, marines, civilians, and contractors enjoy the dining hall festivities for Fathers Day. They held drawings for them so that prizes were awarded and the smiles of winners were priceless. Others enjoyed the baby blue frosted cake, and/or the "HOT DOG BAR" just for them. Since the power went out in our camp I spent more time today watching the fun!

Happy Father's Day Dad, I hope you are taking part in something in Seattle that will make you smile!

  1. Talked to Dad, back on Bainbridge this evening. Tired, but sounded well.
