Missing Dad

Buckeyes, Dad, gone

Last night Dad went home to Mom and David.  It was quiet and peaceful, but now too quiet.

The Buckeyes are playing and it just struck me that I can’t call him.  For years and years we would talk during and after the games.  Though we were across the country from each other we watched the games together.

I can remember a year that we would watch the ends of the games holding our collective breath.  Buckeyes were National Champs that year.

So watching the game today is a bit hollow.  I’m sure that will go away and I will still talk to Dad and know he is looking down on the game.

The gates of the Promise Land are in sight for Dad. It has been a long journey and these last few steps are difficult. The love of his family and friends will help him the rest of the way.

God bless you Dad. Let Him be at the gate and take you to Mom, David, Nonnie and Papaw and the rest of the family.

XOXO

What a mess.. It only rains in SD a couple times a year and today is the day. Accidents, delays, cats & dogs talking to each other, the world coming to an end
.. Wonder what a couple of feet of snow would do to them..

The Cherry

The cherry comes from Mom & Dad wanting to watch the fights on TV.. TV’s were scarce in the late 40’s so they would go to the local bar in Baltimore to watch.. They put me up on the bar in a basket and feed me cherries while they watched the fights.. I love cherries to this day. XOXO

I’ve left the world of photos for a while, IT management for the time being.. In Columbus OH now.. And at the moment I’m sitting on the upper deck at the Shores Restaurant in La Jolla. Dad is recuperating at the hospital and it looks like he’s getting out tomorrow.. I’ve taken a moment to come to one of his favorite spots to think of him..
