Cats are on the upgrade
Oct. 18th, 2005 10:06 pmI went down to the bay area to visit my dad today after not seeing him for almost 4 months. He turned 76 last week. We walked around his little town and he pointed out all of his favorite places. He loves the local library--he gave me a tour and told me all about its ups and downs.
He particularly enjoys the travel section. He showed me the books he checked out to read up on his last trip to England, Ireland, Iceland, Greenland and Newfoundland. Kind of an odd trip, but he is geared toward the exceptional rather than the average.
After the walk we had dinner and talked about life. It was probably the longest conversation we have ever had.
He doesn't understand the internet at all. I tried to explain im's to him and he just didn't get it. That's ok. When I was in Baton Rouge, he called and told me he was proud of me. He doesn't need to know about im's.

I like this picture very much.
