Summer came a knockin'...

...and I was ready. Well actually Opal was. I suggested a camp fire she suggested...

...a weenie roast...

...and a marshmallow toast...

...and a smore's sundays....

...and an outdoor theater experience. Who was I to stand in her way when presented with such genius. Her follow thru made me proud and I was given a perfect excuse to get our outdoor living quarters in shape for margs on the deck and bbq season. All I need is for two vintagesque/awesome chaise lounges to materialize at the proper garage sale so I can put my dogs up in style....

My dad is a bad ass. Between being a lazer physics genius, and a sahara desert explorer, he also managed to race motorcycles in France in the sixties. Even raced the famous le Mans race course. Yup, that's a lot to live up too...I may have to join some extreme sports and invent teleportation....
