May 2012

My Dad loved his yard and my guy loves his yard.

My Dad smoked cigars and my guy smokes cigars.

My Dad lived for sports and my guy lives for sports....my Dad would watch a game and turn down the sound and listen to the play by play on the radio.....guess who else does that?

My Dad loved to cook on the grill and my guy loves to cook on the grill.

My Dad treated my Mom with respect and my guy treats me with respect.

Both are hard workers.

yeah, I live with my Dad....
