    Talking Re: Gift ideas ???????????

    I'm glad you posted this question on this site too...it's making me realize a lot of the regulars on here have more class than I previously gave them credit for...ok that's a joke...I think.

    Man, a 2009 60' Sundancer, WOW!

Just kidding!! Keep the gift ideas rolling. I'll report back with what I gave em' and how it went over.

    Oh, and those of you who mention the beer cheese I have that taken care of as I am a partner in a newly started beer cheese company here locally, I am taking plenty of that down with me to pass around!
    I sure wish I could take credit for this idea bourbon, but I mentioned this post to my wife, and she made a good point. If her parents can 'drop' a million on a boat, they don't need a gift that money can buy, so the best gift may to give them complete confidence that their little girl will be taken care of as if they were here to do it themselves. So, it's not about a material gift as much as it is about instilling them with the belief in your character. Yes a material gift is probably in order, but I imagine something simple, classy, and then your best behaviour and the confidence you leave with them, that you are a man of character.

    Tight lines,

    Very well said, I definately agree with with you and your wife that it isn't about the monitary value of the the gift as much as it is showing the appreciation for the invitation to share time with them and their daughter on this trip and exhibiting a bit of character and thoughtfulness that comes from being a kentucky raised gentlemen. That is why I turned to you folks here on the board for ideas as I know you all are good people and would help me come up with some great ideas to help me extend my gratitude.
