One of my sons is here visiting this week and they asked me what I wanted for Fathers Day and Birthday. I told them as much pine bark mulch as they can haul in. Of course they looked sort of puzzled but I have a special need for it and they told me what ever $50 will buy will be here. Now if Home Depot will only run a special. Lol

Pebble...Sounds like me. I generaly ask for something I need for gardening like gloves, etc.
One year for Christmas our daughter asked what I wanted and I said a palm sander. She sorta laughed and asked what I wanted that for. She didn't get me one but my DH did.

Jim...Pine bark mulch sounds like a reasonable gift. Hope you get it.

I was born on Fathers Day, That year it was June 18th. This year it is June 16th. It is always the third Sunday in June.

Sounds like my wish lists! I actually gave my son-in-law a load of garden soil for his birthday one year. Granddarling had a ball running up the mound for several days before it was spread. Now I wish "someone" would decide to reciprocate, as I badly need soil to make my lasagna garden.

Sounds like a great gift to me. I was surprised earlier this spring by my DH and DS when they came home with a bunch of mulch, topsoil and some other things for me. I loved it. I hope you get your father's day wish.

Happy Early Father's Day Jim!
