Thanks Yarb!

Was a great day - AC/DC tribute band delivered as promised. SoCal weather was perfect.

It's funny and scary at the same time :) My boys are 14 and 17, 18 in a month.
The oldest is catching up, I'm 6'3", he's probably 6'2" now. He might not outgrow me. Of course, he's slim as a tiger, and I'm a fat fuck :D

The youngest still has a way to go, but he still has 4 years of growing in him. It's also funny to have seen their development from babies to thoughtful, intelligent young men. It's good stuff.

It's awesome man. My son is 21 now and works as a HVAC tech in Las Vegas. I just went visit him a few weeks ago and it's awesome to see how grown up he is and how well he's doing. He's a bit shorter than me but not much. I often think of when he was just a little kid and it feels like yesterday.
