Mine are only 4 and 6. I can’t even imagine tjat yet. Although I can also see how they would become so annoying by young adult age it has to happenWell, there goes my Cruise idea
PS: Our youngest recently left the nest and my wife literally had tears of joy/sadness tonight
. As long as they come to visit often!

Maybe give him a set of Warhammer 40k miniatures? That he can assemble and paint. Or any other type of assembleable miniature of cars for example.
If only flying didn’t cost couple months of rent cost I’d be there by today eveningYou fly, I'll... fry?
Chris Reeves Sebenza, Marfione signature Microtech OTF, Benchmade Infidel. All solid choices.
If you want to go ultra-extra-ultimate exclusive knife stuff, this dude does some remarkable job.
Funny, as I can't imagine having a 4 and 6 yr old at this point in my lifeMine are only 4 and 6. I can’t even imagine tjat yet. Although I can also see how they would become so annoying by young adult age it has to happen
I can see why you are proud. You’ve done well there mate. Also goes to show I should never judge a person by their username!Funny, as I can't imagine having a 4 and 6 yr old at this point in my life
But those are such fun ages. Still innocent kids but learning the ways of the world.
My oldest leaving was definitely a bit a reprieve because like his dad, he was a bit of rebel.
He ended up getting a 5yr Architecture Masters from KU and now in Denver so very proud dad I am.
My middle boy is relatively close to us. He is a Civil Engineer, and the most like me.
My youngest is the Youtuber and he lives in LA now. Just visited and left last night. Wife and I were so proud as he cleaned up his room and bathroom to the point you'd never know he was here. Very respectful and mindful. Love them all.
Lisa, back on topic, another idea is one of these surprise camping trips (I forget some of the company names) but you fill out some basic information and then you don't find out where you are going until the last minute. Our friends did it and loved it. It is on our bucketlist.
Edit: It was called On A Whym.

Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.My Husband's Birthday is in about a month and want to get him something special, but he's been quiet on wants. So, I really have no hints or clues for this year. Kids aren't really any help as they're not around much these days. Don't really want to get him anything music gear related since he's kinda wanting to get rid of a few pieces of his unused gear anyways, but am open to it mostly in the hopes that mods think it's on topic and this thread doesn't end up in OTC.
Did you list what his hobbies or interests are? I think I missed it?My son told me that he was serious about the airplane thing, but not going to be ordering an airplane kit or anything like that.
Am looking at flight schools for both of them to take courses at over the summer, but looks like I will need to involve him on as it's not a straightforward process and they will have to devote a few days a week to it. Still open to other ideas of things. Thanks y'all for the input so far!

I saw guns, guitars, hunting, spending time with family?My nephew is doing that. He is 15. Wants to fly commercially. He has the plane identifier app. Kind of like the Cruise Ship Mapper app.
It is strewn through-out the thread. Like a puzzle.

is he working on any cars? That is fun to do with your son, it's one of my favorite activities. Damn though, with that many options, you are wide open for choices! Personally, I would pick something that both your son and your husband are interested in, especially if he's leaving the coup. My son is leaving this year, and I'm sick about it.
yeah, my bro in law(rip) owned a junkyard for 40 years. I learned the first Christmas not to get him tools. I ended up working for him during summers in my teens, and he kept the damn crappy tool I got him, lol.

so honestly, cars are probably becoming "work" at this point, judging by the projects. A break would probably be appreciated.
sounds just like by bro in law. Working was the only time he seemed really happy. He had all kinds of properties that he liked to actually take care of, in addition to running a business. That in addition to hosting clam/shrimp/oyster frys every year. He had a bar that he bought just to have parties for his friends, lol, full industrial kitchen and all!Not really work for him.
He rarely relaxes and loves to keep busy which is the only reason he's not retired.
