Boston Red Sox Game
If your dad's a baseball fan, he'll love catching a game at one of the nation's most historic ballparks, Fenway Park. Each Father's Day, Fenway opens the gates for families to tour the warning track and see the bullpen up close, so be sure to swing by for the free tour before the game.

Drive Along the Pacific Coast Highway

Steak Night in Dallas
For a Father's Day-worthy dinner, head to Dallas for a Texas-sized steak. You'll have dozens of choices, from the upscale Nick & Sam's to the more casual Pappas Bros. (they have their own cigar room). Call around, as many area steakhouses offer special menus in honor of dad's special day.

Golfing in Albuquerque
Cool morning temperatures – even in the summer – make Albuquerque the perfect place for a Father's Day golf getaway. Golfing in the high desert means there's very little chance for rain to ruin your day. After you've played a few rounds, head to a local restaurant for some red and green chile.

Walking Tour of Charleston
Take advantage of Charleston's warm Southern hospitality this Father's Day by taking a historic walking tour together. Depending on your interests, you can opt for a strictly historical tour, or a ghost, Civil War or pirate-themed tour instead. On Sunday morning, sample some of the city's famous lowcountry cuisine for brunch.
