Happy Birthday Dad

A picture that I came across recently was of Dad on a horse.  It was while we were on a camping trip to Kentucky Lake and I wanted to go horseback riding so badly.  I am pretty sure I had saved up babysitting money for my ride but Dad decided he would come along.  I don't remember if it was his first time on a horse too but I expect it was.  It was a great thing for him to come along with me, especially since I doubt it was a big dream of his.

The other picture that I love of Dad and that always brings a laugh is from an early family picnic.  It was a relay race, "running" while holding a carrot between your knees.  And those plaid shorts he wore.  Good times!

Today would have been his 90th birthday.  Yikes.
