Happy Father’s Day

I spent Fathers day morning helping my daughter hook up the haybine then making sure things were running properly after all the repairs we made. Nice rain finally after lunch and a nice chinese food supper at the daughters. Also got some wheels added to my 22lr bullet trap so it can be moved easily, i kind of over built it. :)
 
I had the good fortune to have dad come by the shop for the afternoon. We made him up a little a little bracket for his scooter/mobility aid so he could carry a small table behind his seat for impromptu picnics at a nearby park.
Good use of the machines, good visit with dad.
Happy Father's Day.
 
I got to spend all Saturday with my Dad tearing out and fixing a roof leak in his trailer, then yesterday I woke up, watched MotoGP with the kids while eating the breakfast they made me, and then I got to cut ALL the grass in peace (4 hours), and started building my coal forge. Got a lot more done that I hoped to, and capped it off with a double header of lob ball last. I'm sore today. I'm hoping I can perk up a bit before Golf tonight :D.

Had a great weekend, I wish they all were like that.
 
Had a fairly good Father's Day, daughter came to visit, didn't get anything done, but O.K. with that. Hope everyone had a good day.
 
My son came over for a bit as usual before going to his room that’s used for his guitar, amps, and keyboard while I went to Timmies. On the way home someone parked in my spot and had to park on the opposite side and while turning around I saw a magpie trying to get a baby rabbit, I walked up to it and it ran to my hand then I found its sibling and put them in a more dense area with some cover.
