So here we go - Father’s Day is Sunday. I realize it’s late on Friday - so you are probably well on your way to starting your weekend.

But here goes the yearly question - what do you plan to do?
We usually go to the Stone Arch Festival something for everyone there - cool vintage cars, art, photography, pottery crafts, kids activities, good food and great music. I think one of my favorite views of downtown Minneapolis is from St. Anthony Main. Plus it’s fun to walk down and take a close up look at the dam.

My husband is feeling like keeping it simple and NOT manuevering a double stroller around the masses. So we’re going to skip our yearly tradition this year.

I checked out other options:

there are Weiner Dog races at Canterbury

the Parktacular celebration in St. Louis Park

Back to the 50’s Auto Show at the Fairgrounds.

just to name a few.

But just like I felt on Mother’s Day - he is feeling like he wants to split some time to himself and to spend with the family (no crowds)

One simple wish? A solo run without pushing a 70 pound double stroller.
Check! I can grant that. What else? We’re still figuring that out.

What are dad’s out there requesting - where/what will you do to celebrate?

ps: We want to say a special Happy Father’s Day and congratulations from Cribsheet to the father we wish we didn’t have to know but check in on frequently - Matt Logelin .
I’m sure many of you have heard has a book in the works. Congrats Matt! You know we’ll all be anxious to get our hands on the book as soon as it comes out.
