Starting in 1954 in Virginia my Dad took me everywhere and continued for many years teaching me and taking me along places like flights in his plane for fun and even to the Airforce base to help him work on jets at his job. I went fishing and learned how to clean fish and build homemade boats. My dad always kept me around when he said we were helping do things for the kids that came later: like I helped him paint small furniture he made for my youngest sister and he wanted me to "help" him teach my brother things like the cub scouts.My mom always said my dad loved me so extra much. Well I could tell and it was fun always going places for fun.
