Father Knows Best - Happy Fathers' Day! Coffee Break # 14

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

Sorry, but the last thread was giving chilblains. I hope the sun comes up to warm up our plants and my bones. Happy day to all the fathers of all kinds out there - the fathers and step-fathers and fathers-in-law and those who serve as father but not recognized by one of those terms by law. (Step-boyfriend?) Take a day off, all you hard workers, and the rest of you, we'll buy you a card. (Nobody on this forum is not a hard worker, but we all know they're out there.)

We came from here.

Good morning. I wish I could send the heat up to y'all It will hit 98 today and 100 both Sat and Sun.

Cute puppy.. Andre loves every one who come here. He has no idea about being a watch dog.

Time for my nap. Talk to y'all later

Love the cartoon.

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

wren that is hot - we would be happy with 75 - 78 here - 100 would send gardens into shock!

North Augusta, ON

Cloudy and damp today but I ain't complaining...gardens are loving this cool, wet weather. Things are lasting longer and nothing is stressed out. Not that we ever get hot enough up here to stress things out. Mosquitoes are nasty though...will carry you off if you stand still too long.

Jacksonville, FL(Zone 8b)

We have the Mosquitoes too, you have to ride a bike to be fast enough to escape them.. To hick with the gardens stressing out how about the poor gardeners????

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

Everything does look lush, lovely, and a little blurry.

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

i think i like this thread title - does this mean what father says on Sunday goes - sounds like a great day for me:)

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

GASP!

Thomaston, CT

LOved the cartoon, & Riley's escapades! Dave, we adopted an airedale 6 years ago---he still wants to bite everyone except us----we brought him for training classes, bought books, sent to Tufts for an evaluation---at least you can pick up the Griffon---our guy weighs 70lbs.

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

Well, at least it's a warmer thread title! I still wear wool socks and layers - who needs AC?

The Monadnock Region, NH(Zone 5a)

There's been so much rain lately that now we are under a flood warning for the rains that are expected Saturday night and into Sunday. Sheesh!

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Robin, Oscar is huge in his own mind! But yes, much easier to control.

Finally had some sun this afternoon.but it will pass soon. Is there global clouding?

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

one of the bosses at my job has two airdales.... nice looking dogs... Rileys new thing today was playing in the puddle in the tarp we have covering the wood rack... I love to watch this puppy learn new stuff

Jacksonville, FL(Zone 8b)

Good morning y'all Who needs a/c I DO!!! LOL Really wish I could send y'all so of this heat-will be over 100 to day and tomorrow. Do not be surprise If any of y'all find a strange women with a large hairy dog sitting on y'all front porch . LOL

Thomaston, CT

Right now you would be soaked----it's pouring again! Happy Fathers' Day to all of you guys out there----hope your day shines, even if it's not sunny.

Huron, OH(Zone 5b)

happy Father's Day to all the guys. Sorry Victor, I don't know how to do the card thing, you'll have to send your own.

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

You have to pay Jacqui Whatshername a pound of flesh, but then you can send as many cool ecards as you want. (We have other friends who send those cards.)

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

It's really very cheap when you think about it....19.00 a year and I spend way more than that on Hallmark cards! lol

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

You could just send us the 19 bucks...

Pepperell, MA(Zone 6a)

did not rain here

Nor here - Its official - 1st day of Summer!!!

Salem Cnty, NJ(Zone 7b)

Happy Father's Day all you men! Enjoy it to its fullest!

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

Happy Fathers Day!!!

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

Happy Fathers Day!!
Sorry I already spent the 19 on cards Dave.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Thank you. Happy Fathers Day to all!

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

Happy Fathers' Day! See, if I spent the $19 for her cards, what would I give/send all the people who hate sweet, tasteful Labrador retrievers? And I really try to stay away from Hallmark, although that's mostly what I am given; Papyrus or even American Greetings are nicer. I REALLY like the one-of-a-kind or at least not mass-marketed ones.

South China, ME(Zone 5a)

But not all are Labs.the have fairies/pixie's, birds, Teddy bears,and cats too!

Can someone explain why so many garden plants look like they're suffering from ED, while the weeds look like they're on Cialis???!

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

Extra rain, not enough sun?

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

No - why the difference?

North Augusta, ON

What weeds? (looks out window) I don't see any weeds...

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

(I don't know what ED or Cialis is, but weeds don't mind the rain so much whereas garden plants say "this is not the correct number of full sun hours I was bred for.")

Southern, CT(Zone 6a)

Carrie, You know it was a joke,right? How about if he said Viagra & ED?

Nice card & thank you Pixie and everyone.
Homemade presents from my kids--the best! My daughter made me a paper mache Jon Stewert, son made a card with coupons and made a lego envelope for the card.

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

David, I got that whatever ED and Cialis are, the weeds are thriving and the garden plants are behind, at least up here.

A lovely Fathers' Day here, too. My DDs spent the day with their real father, then came home and spontaneously rushed up to DH and hugged him and said "you're my favorite father!"

central, NJ(Zone 6b)

Awww that is so sweet Carrie, bet it made DH feel great.

Happy Father's Day to all you dads out there.
Took hubby and his dad to the german american club for lunch, yummy!!

Southeastern, NH(Zone 5b)

Just want to pop in and wish all you fathers out there a Happy Father's Day. I made my man his favorite dish of baby back ribs today with his fave pasta salad.If I do say so myself I think it came out better than ever before. Mmmm Hope you all enjoyed a good time, good peole and good food too! : )

Milton, MA(Zone 6a)

I hope so. He always thinks it's planned or contrived or calculated. It made ME feel good.

Denville, NJ(Zone 6b)

when I brought all the dogs out this morning... I tapped on the slider to tell Randy they were playing.. he ran upstairs and videoed from the bathroom window... how good is he

I am so happy FINALLY everyone was playing nice
