Fathers Day Road Trippin’

My father seems like a private, taciturn man. However, if you get to know him, you will come to know is that he is funny.

I had bought some zucchini bread at the farmer’s market and put it out on the kitchen counter with a note that said “zucchini bread to share.” The next day a package of seaweed snack appeared next to my zucchini bread with a note that said “seaweed to share.”

When I was younger we were driving past a cemetery and my dad asked “do you know how many dead people are in there?” I, of course, had to ask “how many?” To which the answer was “all of them.”

One of his newest ways to be funny is to take photos from places he and mom visit and then add funny captions to them. This is one from their trip a few weeks ago when they were trying out their new travel trailer.

He also likes to share old photos and stories of the family farm. This is one he emailed just this week. It is of my dad, his sister and brother and their cousins.

Today in honor of father’s day I treated both mom and dad to lunch and then we took a long two-hour drive around the area outside of Ione. It was a really nice day.
What did you do for Father’s Day?
