He’s 80yo and likes to go to the coffee shop with his buddies every evening. So I thought I’d get him a gift card there, but they don’t sell them online and my dad (and the coffee shop) are 5 hours away from me! He used to be an avid sportsman, so he has all the magazines/catalogs and equipment he wants. He likes the outdoors. But at his age, he doesn’t do much that’s "outdoorsy" anymore. Socks seem like a cop out. He doesn’t wear ties. What else can I get him?
Here are a couple ideas for you.
Beer
Beer making kit.
Cigars
Hip Flask
Books
A briar smoking pipe
Pipe tobacco
Cigar cutter
Smoking Jacket
Power tools
Get him one of these:

Then he can use it at the coffee shop or anywhere else he might want to.

call the coffee shop and give them your credit card he phone and have them mail you the gift card, then remail it to your dad, or have the coffee shop give it to him directly. not too hard.
