Wife, son and I are up at our cabin for the weekend. Enjoying a nice cup of coffee on the front porch with nice weather and a good breeze right now.

My Dad has passed so there is that. In his honor, I think I will grab some pos youngster and teach them how to do carpentry, plumbing, electrical, roofing, automotive, small engine and everything else under the sun. I don’t believe there wasn’t anything he couldn’t do.

He also had a cup holder in every moving thing he operated so as to have a place to put his beer. Used to always give me first drink much to my mothers dismay. Beer seemed much colder when you are only 5 or 6.

That's a great memory. My dad's been gone for 15 years and I still miss him constantly.

Mine's gone 24 years this year.
That forker could fix anything. Stripped out gears in a Yamaha 175, rotted out laundry room floors, you name it.
If I think about him for more than five minutes my eyes will start leaking.

Ditto. I remember crawling under the car with him to "help" him with whatever he was doing. I'd make sure to get grease and oil all over myself so I could look just like him.

He'd always get mad in a loving dad way when I'd strip a nut on my bike while I was modding it. Good Lord I miss that man.

My respect and sympathies Smooth and OETKB. Maybe men were different then but I am not even close to the man my dad was. As I said, he could fix anything but had a wall full of degrees and a chest full of medals/ribbons.

Used to take me riding around looking for pop bottles. Every Saturday. I think you got a nickel for each one. As I also said, always had a beer even when driving. Funny thing was when or if he saw a cop he would hand me the beer. How it was better to hand a child who couldn’t see over the hood an open beer is beyond me. Truly a great man and I miss him dearly.
