A thought

[seamonkey]

I often think about dad, and the times we went fishing together, many, many moons ago. It seems like another lifetime, a time when younger and free from the anxieties that one has. Years ago, my dad had a boat in Sheepshead Bay, Bklyn. .
On this day though, in March, I wanted to fish, as a I always did. So dad got us some blood worms, a can of corn and a therom of Dunkin' Donuts coffee. We always had the DD coffee on those cold days. Back at that time there weren't many DD's around, but the one on Emmons Ave. was the one we all knew.

Yes things and times were so much simpler back then. You really captured the essence of what it was like to be a kid and love to go fishing. No fancy gear or plugs, just wroms, corn, clams, etc, and get out there and go fishing. Thank you for sharing that. Beautiful.

The older days were the best. We had no money and had to find simple ways to entertain ourselves and get out fishing if we wanted to go. I sure do miss them and memories of my Dad. Nicely written Sir.
