Sometimes our best memories dont have to include larger than life or colorful characters. I have very few early memories of fishin with my Dad because he was always too busy or he got seasick. The ones I have are later in life when I took him fishin, instead of him takin me.

But these are all priceless, including the memories you have of your Dad, Monty. Whey they're gone, that's all we have left of them.
