…on a serious note.

Dad in Alaska after a hike

 

Dad passed away last week. It’s a difficult thing trying to re-group and get over the shock, but I’m doing my best. Dad was an adventurer. He loved the latest gadgets, especially if they were  somewhat obscure. His most prized electronics couldn’t be purchased at a best buy, they had to be ordered. He was kind of a “techno-hipster.” Dad loved watching movies next to a fire on the days that most people look out the window and sigh (due to all the falling rain). He was an avid bicyclist and competitive when it came to leading and passing other bikers. He loved golf, and as often as we played together, I never beat him…which I know he was proud of =).

Dad: in India next to a snake charmer...(me: taking the photo...no where near the poisonous snake)
