Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to my dear husband, Jim.  I think Dan and Anna would agree that he's been a remarkably great dad over the years.

Happy Father's Day, too, to my Dad.  Above, we are seen playing shuffleboard at Mitiwanga in Ohio a fair number of years ago.  He has the patience of a saint and was always a great teacher.  I love that he taught me how to use tools and read maps and put things together and make a bed the Army way.  That's him below when I visited in April--still raging.  Thanks, Dad.  Have a happy day.

"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

Father's Day

This is my Dad, Daniel C. Warner, about 1942. He's a veteran of World War II and will celebrate his 90th birthday in December. Besides teaching me to ride a two-wheeled bike, my Dad played catch with me, taught me how to use tools and do household repairs, explained how things worked, showed me how to read a map. He also taught me to make a bed the Army way! This was pretty revolutionary back in the 1950's before women's lib. I always believed I could do or be anything I wanted because of my Dad. Happy, happy Father's Day to you, dear Dad.
