Toasting to Dad

My two older brother's and I got a rare treat today. We got to hail a toast to our Dad on Father's Day. This may not sound so unusual, but for us, it was the first time in 28 years (at least) that we were able to be with our Dad in person on his day. We had a wonderful breakfast at the Trolley Station on Warm Springs, near his home. He looked fabulous, still has his charm and wit at age 84. Later, Mike, Dallas and I hiked up Table Rock and had a grand view of the Treasure Valley. It was cool and overcast, good for a hike. We sat on a rock at the top and watched a little lizard having a sunbath. He was very cute, trying to blend in.
I also went over to John's Dad's house and gave him a card and a brownie. He was happy to see me, he sits and fiddles with his stuff. Ora wasn't feeling well and had been asleep. Hug your loved ones whilst you can. They may not always be around.
Good day, good times with good people.
