Sending BIG happy birthday wishes to my Dad! Here is a mobile phone photo I took of the two of us in July, when I was up north for a visit.
You know Dad here on the blog through his comments, posted by DK Wight. He enjoys reading the blog and ALL of the comments posted, and considers many of you, dear readers, friends. He thinks it's wonderful that there are readers from all over the world, and really enjoys what you share.
Happy Birthday, Dad!!
Hope your day is marvelous!!
Happy birthday seven days late, Mr. D. K. Wight! I thought of you when my dad was up here last weekend. I gave him two Patrick McManus books for Father's Day, and he read them while he was here and laughed and laughed until he coughed. He insisted on reading the funny parts to my mom and me. Do you ever do that to your poor wife and daughters? Hope your birthday was marvelous!

Happy belated BD, Mr. W. I hope that was Moose Drool "beer" you had for dessert, not "bear!" I always love your DK comments from up there in God's Country. I remember the shadowy St. Joe, too. sigh

We just got home from a couple of days on the shadowy St. Joe River in North Idaho. Near where I was born great scenery and fishing. Caught some fish and some fresh mountain air. Had broasted chicken for B-day and some coleslaw, and a bottle of Moose Drool Bear for desert. Thank you to all those out there that posted and it all makes the world so much smaller with others to chit chat on Anna's site. Lori is feeling better by the day and the surgery has been a complete success as far as we are concerned. The kids and Lori's sister AntiPasto were worried that we had been kidnapped by aliens, Ha! no such luck and I already rewritt the will anyway. Old people can run away from home too! Ma is busy taking the grub out of Anna's rolling cabana so I had better end and get to work too.......Love, Dad

I've been away from blog land for a while (so much to do when you are building a house) The well drillers are down 360 ft and only 4 gallons a minute (and we are in swampland!!!!!) they must've hit a BIG rock!! However, nuff 'bout that. DKW is another year better!! So glad I popped in before it was too far past commemorating the day. Hope the past few days find you basking in the sweet wishes still. ~belated but BEST wishes to a great dad and man (it is evident just by "seeing" you on Anna's sight;)!!

Please shoot me now. I have no worthy excuse for missing sweet DK's birthday yesterday. I am just now getting around to checking my Google Reader and just found this post - ode to your wonderful Dad. I am hanging my head in shame, but nevertheless send my warmest, albeit tardy, birthday wishes for your Dear Dad. Have some cake for me, DK. Happy Birthday big guy.
