Father's Day

We had a fun weekend for Father's day. We stayed local and just hung out around town. Saturday was pretty gloomy but nice enough to go downtown and hang at the park. We got yummy Nonna's sandos and Gavin had fun playing on the playground. We got Gavin down at a decent time and we watched Gran Torino.

Sunday we started the morning with bagels in bed for Steve. I packed up a yummy picnic and we tried out a new hike up on the Grade. Can't say we will do that hike again but at least we tried it. It was along the freeway up in the hills. It was sunny and kinda hot but with some wind. It was a serious incline most of the way up. Gavin was a trooper for most of it but then wanted to be carried the second half.

The afternoon was lazy as Gavin took a nap then we got sucked into Fried Food Paradise on the Food Network. I had a meal of risotto and salad planned and we nixed that for a delicious treat at Longboards in Pismo consisting of fried zucchini, fried mushrooms and burgers. We got turkey burgers but we should have splurged for the real meat. Oh well. It was tasty but we felt kind crappy afterwards. It was worth it when Steve said... now that is a Father's Day dinner. Score!

Gavin and Steve packed up the car on Monday and headed up to Pine Mountain Lake. They are going to go up to Yosemite and play for a couple days. Gavin is very excited to see Papa at the lake. Fun for them! I am back home working. I will either me really productive or soak up the quiet.
