King for a Day

                                               
Dad was the King of the Castle for the weekend. Susan and I took him out to dinner Saturday night. I had Sushi, Dad and Susan had the cooked variety of sea dwellers. A new bistro opened up near the house that is above the cultural norm in Palm Bay, i.e. flip flops and tank tops are not worn under roof. They even have a grand piano with a decent player  and a Koi pond. Suffice it to say, we will be return customers. Also suffice it to say, the restaurant probably won't last in Palm Bay. These here folks like their hot dogs and chicken wings.

Susan and I got Dad a BEER TENDER made by Krups (www.beertender.com) for Heineken. Dad loves it. He asked how it works and Susan and I just laughed, "Right Dad...you don't know how to pour draught beer", he chuckled then expertly tilted his glass up to the tap and poured his first beer perfectly. DELICIOUS. He loved the cards everyone sent and got a chuckle out of some. I took him to Denny's for breakfast on Sunday then we watched the Cubs win. Back to it allllll being about me and Susan around the house today. Dad gets one weekend a year.

Looking forward to our trip to Tampa to see the Cubs vs. Rays. Go Cubbies.
