My Dad was a good man, although he did not talk much, well at least to me. I grew up in the 50's. By 1960 I was 14, so you see it was a different time zone then today's ideas of what a Dad is all about. The BBQ was a time I remember..........we were raised my our Moms .....the fifties -the neighborhood Dads played golf, bowling was big, the kids in our neighborhood did not play golf --it was an era of bicycles and swimming pools and lakes for us---the Moms in the neighborhood took us to the lakes and stuff-----Dads worked, Moms did the raising,,,,well that's the way I saw it and I'm 68 now.............................PS ,,,My grandfather took me fishing and some hunting, he is the one I remember for all that kind of stuff---Grandparents are not so stuffy imho. So now I'm a grandparent of 6,,,there is not enough hours in the day for 5 boys and a granddaughter--where does time gooooo.
Yes I take my grandsons to the range to shoot and we have a big time, fishing,,not their bag. We are into driving my car now,,,that's a big thrill for them..........there is still not enough time for 6..
Happy Fathers Day...................................
