Favorite: Mom, Dad, and Me
There we are in the old house, the only house I really knew with mom and dad.
Uncle Bob took the photo, drawing forth the smiles and laughing.
Thank you, Uncle Bob.

Rereading Around, Again
In these two stacks, vertical and horizontal, you may find three or, perhaps, four books in my top 25 books of all time.
Frost.
Howden Smith.
Renault, certainly.
20 Years: Hey, Dad, I Like Remembering You This Way
1990s wedding photo for an uncle.
My father is the bright white-haired man in the collarless white shirt and tweed jacket.
He hated wearing ties.
I still wear that jacket to teach in at times.
I like to remember him at this age, early 60s.
He died in 2004 at age 70.
Today is the 20th anniversary of his death.
Farewell, father.
RIP.
Your son,
Matt
