Dinner Date for Two


Boy, I haven't posted this much in a long spell. But tonight I had a very nice dinner with my oldest son. I suggested we eat before six PM and take advantage of the early bird special at a local favorite hangout of mine. A nice little restaurant at a riverside resort that has the best view and you can't beat the steak dinner for $7.99. Patrick made a special fuss about wearing a suit (even had it cleaned and pressed for our date). I think he's really enjoying his time away from Army life in general and will be glad to finish up his time. We had a great "date."

What a good looking son & Mom! The view of the riverside looks like a dream place to dine. The world is full of wonderful places....I'm glad I came over to visit and got to enjoy a bit of your outing.

You indeed live in a beautiful spot, and there is nothing quite as special as a son taking a mother out. Just one time and you would change all the diapers and fix all the bottles all over again.
I love the forest, so my son would take me on drives up in the woods. I cherish those memories.
