A Few Fathers Day Items

On behalf of Guideposts magazine, I'm sharing out the Guy Fieri cover story that now appears in the June issue.  Guy writes about how his dad is the perfect role model.  Very timely with Father's Day around the corner

Here's the link: http://www.guideposts.com/story/guy-fieri-fathers-day

and here are a couple notable excerpts:

"Dad loves to tell the story of the time we built a deck. He'd tacked all the boards in place. They just needed to be nailed off. That was my job. I had my hammer and I was pounding big 16-penny nails into the wood. Sure I was only six but Dad had taught me well-those nails were going in straight!"

...

"I had other dreams to explore. If it weren't for my dad I would never have become an entrepreneur or had the guts to start my own restaurants. My very first business was a lemonade stand. I had it down - sixty-nine cents for the mix, a five-gallon jug of water, ice, cups, and a busy corner on Main Street.  Then one year our family went skiing in Squaw Valley and I discovered something more exciting than lemonade. I found a guy at the lodge who sold hot pretzels. Big, salty New York style pretzels slathered in mustard. I spent all my lunch money on 'em. Dad couldn't believe it. 'That's all you ate? Pretzels?' 'Yeah, ten of them!' 'That's good, huh?' Dad said. 'Want to open a pretzel business back home?' 'How do I do that?' 'Ask the guy where he gets his pretzels. Get the address.'"
