Tom , your dad is very lucky to have you for a son, and you, him for a father. Cherish your relationship with your folks and spend a much time as you can stand with them.

You should have picked a better driveway to stand by for the pic! JBB is going to use this as ammo against the thatch bashing!

Tom, I absolutely love reading your long posts!!! This one is the best, honestly, I just got choked up, and it takes a lot for me to do that. I envy your relationship with your dad, you obviously appreciate it and that's rare these days.....
Funny though....I always end up hungry after a Tom Brown reading....

Tom,
Thank you for the wonderful read this morning.
Your father has a lot to be proud of, 54 years of dedication to his work and even longer to his family. Your story really shows how much you cherish your time together. Trust me, there is never enough time, glad to see you are making the best of it.
There are so many good stories out there, thank you again for sharing yours.
Your friend,
Mark
PS. Your butcher friend, is an ARTIST!!
