Ran across this recently going through some of my Dad’s old papers . I vaguely remember him writing this from many years ago. He will be gone 30 years next year. Thought you might get a chuckle out of it. This was certainly true of my Dad and now that I think of it, me as well.

Well done. Maybe he wouldn't mind this being put in our club newsletter?
I got the bug at about 8. Uncle joes coupe (Rialto, Ca) rides to get provisions, and a Cracker Jack for me. He and my dad enjoyed each other's company, and I watched the gas gage bob around. That was the time of the first home TV sets, and party phone lines. |

Very well done. I'm sure everybody sees themselves in that article and it is a newsletter candidate for sure, if you are OK with it.

Thank you for allowing this to be used in club newsletters. I bet your father would never have thought those words would be reprinted in Australia!
