One group of guys in our neighborhood has it all figured out. Nearly every day after work, when it is nice, you will find them congregated in “a” driveway...7 to 10 of them depending on the day.
No wives, no kids. They have “family” parties too, on the weekends with the wives and kids. But, the after work hours are only the guys hanging out...they migrate from driveway to driveway. Often, the women and kids will be down the street in someone else’s driveway/garage. In the Winter, they migrate from garage to garage...all are heated, and complete with big screen TV’s. These enterprising guys have made their own traveling “pub” and can simply walk home after a few beers.
This same big group of guys always take their kids out for Halloween trick or treating. They herd the large group of kids around while pulling a little red wagon full of their own “treats”...12 packs of beer...LOL!
I'm not trying to make a funny, I just wish I had friends like Hank Hill.
Drinking beer in the back alley, saying a-yup, but at the same time, they do care about one another. And help each other out in times of need.
I wish I had male friends like that.
I used to, but as I get older, not so many opportunities to make new friends.
Oh, I stay in touch with friends that I had in college, but it's on facebook. Not the same.
This past Halloween we took our son trick or treating in our friends’ neighborhood because our sons are good buddies. All of the neighbors seemed to know each other and were all very friendly. I noticed along the “parade” route a community keg stop for the adults complete with red solo cups. Hilarious.
Sounds like a nice neighborhood. lol
