Fancy restaurant Friday night at the casino, shooting in the desert on Saturday, brunch in Gardnerville NV Sunday, smoking baby back ribs Monday with all my kids (last son returning from Long Beach for the summer). Going to be a real nice weekend.:)

Memorial day weekend usually means a big family 3 - 4 day get together at my house because my birthday is the 25th. The smoker comes out and a brisket or pork shoulder and racks of ribs get done to perfection but not this year. My son just recently had serious shoulder surgery and it would be very difficult for him and his family to make the 300+ mile trip at this time so I told everyone to stay home. Fortunately I have the Indy 500, the Monaco Grand Prix and the Coca Cola 600 to entertain me.

Chuck - I'm sorry about your son and hope his recovery is a speedy one. Let 'em know that next year it's "game on" again. Memorial day, to me, is a time to reflect and be grateful for all the people you love and all the freedom you are blessed with. All you need to do is look around . . . Syria, China, Ukraine, N. Korea, Egypt, West Africa, and the list goes on. With all that's going on in this country it's still the best on earth. I'm going to take my baby girl to the mountains and shoot pistols until our arms ache. She will be leaving for college in the fall and for the first time in my life I will be an "empty nester." I still have time to make some more memories with her though. :D:D
