DIS Dads DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

Dads of the DIS talk about life, bacon, Disney, bacon, kids, bacon, cars, bacon, family life, and lots of other fun stuff! And beer. And bacon.
Hey guys,

I'm back from 2 weeks in the UK. Had an awesome time--it was our family's first overseas trip. Unfortunately, now I have to figure out how to pay the credit card bill. But the memories were worth it.

I was getting worried, though. After we left, we saw an assassination attempt on a presidential candidate, another candidate dropped out, and there was a global IT shutdown. We were starting to wonder if we'd have a country to come back to. Clearly, my family's presence here is more important than we thought.

Welcome back. :)
Saw some of the pics on Instagram. Looked like a pretty good trip!

Never leave again.

Morning, Fellas!

Hope all are well. I know, it had been a while, but I'm still here. While I haven't been posting in here, I have been to get into the Saturday night video chats the last few of Saturdays. There use to be a couple of guys from England that got in, but haven't seen them in a while. There use to be a lot more people who got in early. Ebb and flow, I guess.

Otherwise life is pretty normal for me. The play I'm in, Death of a Salesman, opens in less than two weeks. I'm just getting over COVID for a third time, and this time my taste buds were affected by it. I didn't lose taste completely, but the taste was off a bit. I am starting to taste normally again, so that's nice.

Took the DD to the county fair yesterday for a Daddy/Daughter day. Unfortunately the Mrs. had a wedding and a memorial service to play at, she's a harpist and does this kind of work for a living, so couldn't go. Today we'll be heading to the symphony to watch Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back in concert. They'll play the movie and the orchestra will do the music live underneath. Can't wait. We went last year to see A New Hope, so maybe next year they'll do Return of the Jedi. Can't wait.

That's all for now. Have a good day, everyone.

Sorry to hear that, but glad the taste buds are recovering.

Nice. :)

I'd like to do that some day. Should keep an eye out for it here.

Those concerts are always fun. I got to see the Philadelphia Orchestra perform Raiders of the Lost Ark live (my favorite movie). That was a treat.

Thanks. Thankfully this one wasn't that bad.


Had a blast.

This wasn't our first. Our first was when my DD was 4, maybe 5 (she's 11 now). We took her to Boston to see ET in Concert with the Boston Pops. Last year they did A New Hope, so I hope next year they do Return of the Jedi.

Those concerts are always fun. I got to see the Philadelphia Orchestra perform Raiders of the Lost Ark live (my favorite movie). That was a treat.

They are fun, especially when the 501st is invited to be in the foyer before, during and after the concert. My only complaint is that the orchestra was, at times, a tad too loud to hear the dialogue.
 
Happy Friday everyone!!

Of course not. It’s Monday.

Happy long weekend everyone! Or... anyone that actually has one?
I'm celebrating by being at work all day.
