Another of your stories that sends me back to to enjoy nostalgic recollections of my own family. Dad - and my Mom - could turn a phrase in memorable ways. Thanks, Amy.

I love the languages family speak inside the home. English. And in this case Dad.

Luke and I joke about what voice to text would do with my Dad.

Amy, your stories are great to read! I keep telling my dad to write down his stories and jokes. I call some of them 'Dadisms'!

My memories have lots of holes and I should write the ones down I remember. Keep up the wonderful writings! Love you, my BFF!!

YOU are in many of my memories!! I think you were the one who tagged the adult in my column Chasing The Shade. 😉

Your dad was a treasure. Thanks for sharing his stories.

What lovely memories and a legacy he is building in you, Amy! 💞 (I love those, "turn where XYZ used to be" directions - especially when XYZ became extinct 2 generations ago)
