The other thing I remember about that was when he stood up, just how tall he was compared to me. I remember looking up at him, and him down at me, just for that second before he turned and walked away.
He was so big, and made me feel so small. I had never noticed before, that I remember, how aware I was that an adult was so much bigger than me. Odd.
What a memory. He was hoping to shape his little kid. AND HE DID. Bravo, Dad.
