Father's Day with the kid(s)

[JohnR]

I've gotta say this was one of the best Dad's days I've had. Cub Scout camping with the kids - first real tent camping. Bonfire, whittling, kids making their own first breakfast, fishing, etc... great weekend. And when the "camping' was over, one of the other adults and I took our boys fishing and the kids were catching smallies, perch, for a truly memorable day.

I hope many of you were able to have such a great day or reflect fondly on those days in the past when you could. It was priceless.

Nice

I did the same thing this weekend. We camped out Friday through Sunday up at the Salisbury Beach State Reservation. Got the boys up at 4:00 AM on Saturday to throw a few lines in the water. We lugged the stoves down to the beach and after we got all the lines in the water they cooked up a breakfast of Blueberry Pancakes and Sausages on the Beach. Unfortunately the fish didn't cooperate and we through the skunk.

Later they did a Service project and picked up trash all along the river side.....they seemed to enjoy it a little too much....maybe it had something to do with the abundance of bikinis since it was 90 out.

Later for supper the Dads threw some money together and we had a clambake for supper, Lobsters, Steamers, Corn on the Cob, Baked Potatoes, Burgers and Dogs.....w/ some water melon for dessert.

Finished the night w/ a campfire where we held a Court of Honor (awards Presentation) and then Elections for the new youth leaders for the upcoming season.

All in All a great weekend.

One of my nephews's Cub Scout troop had a fishing derby at Horn Pond in Woburn. My sister asked if I'd like to come along as her "expert" fisherman .
We did manage to catch a few fish, and see a couple of decent ones pulled in by others. They had a cookout with burgers and dogs with chips and watermelon.
They gave each scout a patch for participating and they all got a small prize.
They had one scout that was visiting from Florida. (They had opened the derby up to any troop that wanted to come down.)

They all had a great time as well.

Took the kids swimming at my brothers house and then to a cookout at a friends house on Saturday. Sunday did some sweetwater fishing and the sunnies and LMB were very cooperative. Got a sweet pair of Patriots shorts to go with my "New England's Best Dad" T-shirt from last year. The ex was cool with me keeping them overnight Sunday night so we made S'mores Sunday night.

Great Father's Day!

Golf in the morning, then a cookout specializing in fresh caught fish! Cleaned out the freezer oh the latest catch with friends and family. Great day.
