My husband and Dad have always had so many hobbies that it was easy to buy for them. This year my Dad is no longer with us so I'll will just have to look back and remember him over this weekend.
This is my Dad Manny, he was a tire man who loved his job and people so much that he won Tire man of the year a few times. He also loved reading history books, fishing, birds, and gardening more than anything. I miss him so much and when I am out on our deck and see all the birds and flowers I think of him and smile.
My husband Steve loves so many things and much of his hobbies are very expensive..lol he never does anything small, he is a perfectionist when it comes to anything he does with the one exception, and that is he is my Hobo ! my guy could live in total disarray! so after 26 years I've stopped trying to change him and seeing that's pretty much my only gripe with him I've decided to let it be.
Getting back to father's day this year is a little tough for me, after all these years together he pretty much has everything aside from a Patton boat he would like to have so we can go fishing on one of these huge lakes we have here. So I have been scouting around like a nut this past month or so trying to find something nice for him with not much luck until this morning, I finally came up with something! I think he is going to get a kick out of it and love it. I can't say what it is but I will post it after he gets it. I should mention though everything he does like is expensive, photography, shooting, coin collecting, ect he is the kind of man that is so appreciative with anything he gets no matter what it is. For heavens sakes he still to this very day thanks me for every cup of coffee or meal I ever give him!
This is my Steve and his two best buds Yankee and Dixie.
