BiPolarBear 476 Posted June 15, 2019 I got three kids. Two are out of college, and the youngest graduates next year. My two girls are taking me out for breakfast. My son is in Florida. I will see him in August. Â Oh, and Happy Father's Day to you too. Â Â Â 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,078 Posted June 15, 2019 Down in Portland for son's college graduation. Only bummer is the timing, as I'll be missing the annual Washington Brewers Beerfest that is always held on Father's Day weekend. To make up for it my son and I are heading to a taproom near his new apartment.  2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Djgb13 2,338 Posted June 15, 2019 At my sisters house right now. Everyone came over for Father’s Day. Swimming, drinking, eating, playing some card game. Was a good day. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Observer 641 Posted June 16, 2019 Happy Father's day to all my geek friends. I hope all the dads get a chance to see their kids. And if you're lucky enough to still have your father alive, do whatever it takes to go see him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drizzay 648 Posted June 16, 2019 This is my first one. Going out to brunch in a few minutes. Then going to putz around in the garage/yard all afternoon. The wife bought me a Weber Smokey Mountain, so I'll get that seasoned up with some cheap fatty meat. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah, they just prefer driving. A couple times while flying out at Xmas time they got screwed on connections due to weather so they like to just make a long trip out of it.  I at least got them to start using the magical Google Maps on the smartphone they just finally switched to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The graduation is being held in the Moda Center (where Trailblazers play) so my Dad asked my wife for the address. She looks it up and he starts writing it down on a piece of paper. I then showed him how to just search for it in Google Maps. He was going to manually type the full address into Google Maps! Baby steps. Baby steps. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Check out the Heater Meter and Roto Damper. A couple of guys put together a blower/temperature controller mods for the WSM out of a Rasberry Pi and some other parts.  It is supposed to make the smoking process much easier. Plus i am kind of a computer/electronics nerd, so I am excited to solder the parts together. I have both on order, and hopefully they show up before next weekend.
