“Preparation Rain”

Deferring to technology, episode 17 solves incoming weather through a virtual forecast—-or so you’d think. Find your galoshes, the walk of shame is wet.

Feasting on Italian pleasantry, episode 16 hurls forward with a case of one-too-many.With kiddo “can I have another” plate requests, it may be best practice to recall what could happen if the answer is/remains yes.

In dinner-time remembrance, episode 15 moves from the slow cooked creations of yesteryear to today’s quick fix.No matter the food concoction, it’s all about the company you keep.

Searching for sustenance, episode 14 finds what could be the birth of cheese and at that—-a grilled cheese sandwich. As a great film once noted, “there are no points for second place.”

Headfirst into summer, episode 13 explores vintage/present vacation anticipation. From one country to the next, the trips that bridged US to Italy now move to Argentina. Travel is one thing—-home is quite another.

Strolling forward, episode 12 melds the soon-to-be holiday with a birthday and the maturity that runs with it. Different then a father’s portly adolescence, a daughter’s astounding independence starts off young.

Through Father’s Day, episode 11 attempts to link the hair battle of many to the earnest attempts of the work week.If seizing the day starts with spackling a hairline, you’re headed in the right direction.

As the summer begins, another educational year comes to a close. Reliving the experience, episode 10 walks the aisle from high school to Barclays.

Debating the potential enjoyment of films past and present, episode 9 canvasses its way to what should have been a sound victory. Sadly one father’s poor movie recollection served the opposite.Ice cream can’t solve a forest gone wrong—not even a little bit.

Knife fights, whiskey, tracks made out of mud—-just another day at Grandview. Previewing Pocono’s nation race, episode 8 relives a birthday commercial greeted with NASCAR. Could a daughter’s event interest compel the price of drivers admission? I think not.
