Unique Fathers Day Gifts??

[wink-_-wink 1]

Anyone get any?  My wife tried to 1 up me because I got her an iPad mini for mothers day.  She got me some ammo which was expected but really hookedit up on the second half.  She got me a flying lesson!!  It has always been a dream of mine to get my private pilot license.  This is only a one day course that includes at least an hour of actual flying!!!!!! I am so pumped.  and no matter where I go, that 1 hour counts toward the FAA minimum of 40 needed to get a PPL!  Wifey did good!  Anyone else get something unique?

That's awesome! I've always wanted to take lessons, never have, and I've been around planes most of my life.

I haven't opened my gifts yet. Now that the kids are old enough to handle gifts on their own, me and the spousal unit don't give each other "parents" day gifts, just leave it to the chilluns.

Flying lesson - that is super great.

Andy, it is at princeton airport and is pretty affordable for the intro lesson.

she got me the 179 one so I could get the extra time in the air!  no words right now....

Very cool. Princeton runs a good operation, from what I've heard. If you pursue the the license, finding a nonprofit flying club (I belong to one) is a great way to hold down costs. That 40 hour FFA minimum is rarely achieved-average time to license is closer to 70 hours. Pm me if you want to chat further, though I'll be online only sporadically for the next week.

I'm scared of flying. 

 

Regardless, I got squat for Farter's Day. Yesterday was also my birthday. Got squat for that as well.

 

Wife still bears a grudge for those two tennis lessons she got me for Christmas long ago, still unused.

I get the same thing every year... I get to play softball and drink beer with the guys... Which I do most Sundays during the spring/summer... The present is that she doesn't bitch about it. Lol

My wife got me new pair of boots and told me the day was mine.. Caught 2 largemouth in the morning.. Then spent 3hrs at the range and blew 200 rds of. 22 on the 100yd range and 200rds of. 40 with my Beretta... And had the whole range to myself at twilight... If that's what retirement is like..I'm working extra hard today.. Nothing special but felt like it

WIfe got me a Milwaukee M12 3/8" Drill/driver, very nice cordless tool for around the house. I also have an M12 1/2" hammer drill/driver and an M12 3/8" drive ratchet. Very useful and powerful tools.
