Amazing Dad
Fishing With Dad
Every year dad would take our family to Leech Lake at Red Wing Lodge. We had so many wonderful family vacations there. We always went the same time of year and so did other people so we became friends with them and looked forward to seeing them year after year.
Dad would always come out swimming with us while mom watched from shore. She didn't care for the water. He taught us how to water ski. Never that one time when I fell Brad started singing the them to JAWS which had just come out!! That did it I wouldn't ski back to the resort I wanted back in the boat! LOL
Fishing with dad was always interesting. I loved fishing Northerns with dad, He would buy the big chubs and we would bobber fish. Then when a Northern would get on your line day would tell us how long to wait before we start reeling in and then if the line would go slack he would start saying reel reel reel reel reel until the line tightened and before you know the fish was in the net!! He was a good fisherman.
I remember dad taking Brad, Mike and I fishing from shore on the little lakes. Fun times and good memories!
Getting for Work
I will always remember when I was sick and sleeping on the couch listening to dad while he was getting ready to go to work. First he would remove his coins from the counter top and put them in his left pants pocket. Then he would put his keys into his right pocket. :) Also when I was little and mom would make us take a nap I would always climb onto your side of the bed dad because it smelled just like you, flour and the bakery. God I miss you. My heart is just breaking into a million pieces. :(
