A perfect day.......very cool

10,000 Maniacs sang:

These are the days
These are days you'll remember
Never before and never since, I promise
Will the whole world be warm as this
And as you feel it,
You'll know it's true
That you are blessed and lucky

A great song and time for me to reflect on a terrific day yesterday.

A rare day here ....all the girls are floating this weekend with the Girl Scouts....now before you say, that's what was great....no not at all. It did change my house to the "man cave" for the weekend however.

The weather....95 degrees with a nice warm breeze.......Bright blue sky

My son's first tackle football game at 7:45
Got up early and cooked him up a man breakfast....lots of bacon, eggs and toast!
The game was a scrimmage of all the Jr Lancers from 6th grade to High School attended. They had the little guys stretch out with the big guys. 200-250 players all lined up grunting and shouting and getting revved up....it was .....manly.

Then we decide to go ice sledding.....yup....Chris, his buddy Gavin and I went to a County park and slid down hills on blocks of ice. We were so filthy at the ned we needed to change for the ride home....Excellent Time!

The park was about an hour a way.....GREAT ride....we had the weather, the top down, great tunes....and of course 25 cent slushies.....both ways!!.(.the Cards had scored at least 6 runs the day before).

We get home and break out the man dinner. Denise had given me Omaha Steaks for my birthday....so Chris and I cooked up two filet migons with bacon wraps, potato slices and sweet potato slices....onions and red peppers on the grill. We broke out the little dining tables and ate in front of the big screen. The flick.....we rented "The Bridge on the river Kwai" This was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid....It still was great and Chris loved it.

Topped off the evening with an intermission to Silkys......

Didn't hit the rack until 11pm....

could it get any better?

great day.....Thanks Chris!
