I can only laugh that the very first of our collection of trips out to Ohio, when you were going to meet him during your April school break and The Masters were on ... you actually said, "You don't think your Dad is going to want me to watch GOLF with him, do you?"<br /><br />Man oh man, you stayed on the couch with your books and your gradings, hardly touching them at all, talking about golf and life and having the kinds of silences men have when they begin to revere each other the more. He on his chair ... three days of bonding. Amazing how much further that took you ... as you go the distance inside.<br /><br />Thank*you for your concerns and bolsterings I was aware was always there this past tough weekend when I knew Dad would want me to be reaching out to all others. It did help.
