WOW! Dad becomes hero!!! Love this!! As a Montana girl in my youth that spent A LOT of time in the mountains there, I’m very familiar with tics and also tics and kerosene. Great story and shows how cool our dads can be—outshining the ‘well educated’ with their awesome life experience. I had a similar type Father. Larger than life to me still. So glad they got that tic out of your ear!!! :D
Thank you. It sounds like your DAD was/is a great guy. My DAD, who died in 1992, is never really very far from my mind. He was the best man I have ever known. Honest, earnest, helpful to others, a father who loved his wife ( my mother),...a perfect example to anyone who would take the time to listen. I love him and my MOM. They died 2 days apart. They taught all three of their children to be Christians. I do not know how anyone goes through something like that apart from a Christian upbringing. There is not an hour of the day when I do not think of them. Thank you for your kind words.
