What's your ideal Father's Day?
For me, it's spending all day at the outdoor range (but not in this hot humid weather), by myself. If that makes me a crappy father then I plead guilty. I'm with the wife and kids every weekend already, can't I have a day off?
The girls are 5 and 15 - too young and too indoorsy to share my interests.

I wouldn't mind a new varmint hunting rifle. I'm just undecided what caliber? I'm thinking Ruger American in 22-250

My family treats me like every day's Father's day. No complaints. Only thing different is I get to pick what's for dinner, and I usually get a gift card I can use for ammo.

My kids (never had a DNA test but I think they are mine) usually don't admit publicly that I'm their father.
I'm not sure what the ideal Fathers day is but I'm leaving in the morning driving to Reno. That is definitely not my idea of the ideal Fathers Day. Probably 8 hours behind the wheel and that only gets me to Kalamath Falls Oregon. Then another 5 or so Monday to get to Reno. Course the following Saturday have to drive home, straight through for 13 hours. That's even worse.
I said after the first year I'd never do it again, this is my 3rd year. Boy am I dumb.
I fail miserably of course but I believe we should treat each other like everyday is Christmas, Valentines day and your birthday all in one.

Why don't you just fly?Originally Posted by Bawanna

I flew to San Diego to watch my son graduate Marine Basic. First time in 30 years. Reminded me how much I really don't like to fly.
I don't like to travel nekkid.
No restroom facilities on any commercial planes for derelicts.
Plus seldom a rental car or van that I can drive which means I'd have to rely on the wife to drive which can be scary in itself.

A nice motorcycle ride with the missus, oh crap, gonna be hot as hell! Guess I'll sit in the pool, watch the grandkids be foolish, and drink some beer! Low ambition day.

Father's Day Barth Style
I was not so patiently waiting on a Big Taco stainless RSA for my Walther PPS M2.
It arrived today!!!
Three 8 round mags and Mep NS are still inbound.
But the gun came with a 6 & 7.
So I bought out the three 7 italian mags at the LGS - LOL! (can't have too many mags right?).
Anyway, I'm starting out my Father's Day shooting my present to myself!!!

My Daughter is making Lemon/pepper chicken and roasted asparagus for me tomorrow. We went shooting yesterday.
