It's Father's Day

First one for me without my dad.

Here's a photo of him, as I remember him in later years, also with the cat who was "his cat" for pretty much her entire life:

And a much older photo - this would have been 1976 - of us at the Grand Canyon:

I learned a lot from him, and some of the good parts of my personality (and even some of the not-so-good parts, like the tendency towards perfectionism) can be traced to him.

I miss him.

I love the photos of him. is the cat sitting or standing on him?? bc either way it is funny.

I hope that looking at photos helped and that seeing him happy and healthy and thinking that he is safe where he is now helped as well.

I wish you good thoughts on what is likely a tough day.
