Fathers Day Weekend

Wow, 5 kids!  So this weekend we were outside all the time, it was hot but sunny.  The kids wanted our photo taken on the 1965 Simplicity Landlord, and the kids had fun because I got out Alex's 1963 Simplicity Broadmoor and Livy's 1968 Simplicity Yeoman.  They love their tractors.  My brother took his airplane on it's maiden flight, and unfortunately due to an abnormally long takoff run and a freak gust of wind, it ended up in a tree, 60 feet up.  That was fine, but it took us an hour and a half to sling a rope through the tree and rock it hard enough with the tractor to shake it loose.  Than it fell the aformentioned 60ft and uh, well, it was done.  So we went into town and drowned our sorrows with ice cream!!  All in all, it was a great Fathers Day.
