Father's Day 2006
June 20, 2006
Concord, CA

We wanted to avoid the usual Sunday Father's Day crowd by celebrating Father's Day on a weekday.  It works out perfectly for me since I have to work on Sundays, and I usually get a Tuesday or Wednesday off.  My dad wanted to eat at Claim Jumper in Concord.  If you haven't been to Claim Jumper, you probably don't know about their large portions!  The portions are HUGE!  You can bet that any normal grazer can still walk out with "to go" containers.  Food is great, service is great, and you walk out overstuffed with food.  This place is not for a dieter.  In any case, it again was great to be out with my immediate family now that I live out on my own.  It always reminds me of old times when we were younger and doing family outings.
