Big day requires extraordinary EDC.
on: May 19, 2012, 01:14:51 PM
Last evening, we went out to dinner with our kids, their SO's and my in laws.  We were celebrating my son's graduation from Georgetown Law  :).

This has been a LONG time coming, requiring a lot of extra effort on his part.  At the end of it all, he graduated 0.02 points from the honor roll--a fantastic effort.

So, I had to have a special EDC. :ahhh

I settled on my 1962 Victorinox Soldier, an Atwood Wrunt and Lummi NS Raw flashlight.

AND:
The Soldier received active duty :salute:.  My son needed to cut a final hidden tag off of his new for work suit.  :D

(Hopefully pics to follow...)

Congrats and well done to your son!

Obviously he has a good head on his shoulders! Not an easy task to accomplish.. Well done Dad!

I can only hope my sons (4 and 10) can take life by the horns as well as yours has!

That's great Nate :tu:

Plus a classic tool and you got to use it 8)

Although something has me worried. A family of Equestrians, Lawyers, and Physicists, sounds like a plan for world domination to me... :D

Great photos!  You have a good looking family and congrats to raising some good kids.

Time for him to get out there and make some money so he can buy you some good multis.

I take it he wasn't carrying a multi since you used yours.
