Father's Day

Happy Father's Day one day early. I'm writing today because I doubt I have time tomorrow. I wish my Dad were still here to wish him a happy day. Dad died in 2001, and I still miss him. There have been many times over the last six years I would have liked to receive his advice, as crazy as that was sometimes.

My Dad was a bricklayer who wound up owning a catfish restaurant. While he and my mother rarely took my siblings and me to church when we were kids, I owe him alot. Primarily, I owe him the value of a hard day's work and the reward of a good afternoon's nap!
