Smoked some ribs, did some woodworking (hobby), played with the chainsaw. Pretty good weekend by my standards.

Woke up way to early (just after noon) Then screwed around the house for awhile.

Took the kids up to rock city (if you don't know it, do a google search) then went to steak & shake for some grub & to flirt with the waitresses.
