My dad recently came to visit from Washington state for a real good visit. Heard the boat was out of the water with a bad rod bearing. So we rebuilt the motor together. Had a good time hanging with dad as an equal.<br />Best part was he paid for all the parts.<br /> :cool: :) <br />Later,

My guess is, him paying for all the parts wasn't the best part. Hanging out with him was.

Re: Quality time

you are right BoatBuoy. Hanging out with my dad for those days was very cool. We hadnt hung out like that since I was a teenager.<br />Bassy, If you will replace the sister I already have. That wpuld be a good trade.<br />Later,

Re: Quality time

This post has made me feel down.<br /><br />My parents split up when I was 11, dad moved on and did not keep in touch, I always told myself I would find out where he was but never did.<br />5 yrs ago I had a phone call at work from his new wife telling me he had died. Because it had taken her a few weeks to track me down I didn't even get to go to his funeral.<br /><br />I no I can't turn back the clock, but I wish I had found the time to look him up.

My condolences and sympathy go out to you. That is a hard loss, just try to remember the good times you did have together.
