My mentor could use a beer...

Parkside bar back in the day. I'm sure I crossed paths with your dad Dave. Cheers!

A story about Bookers came up. A few years back they did the annual "Burn" and on this year all 3 neighbors bought a bottle of Bookers. Usually, just one of them nought a bottle and they finished it while the fire was going.

They had decided that after the first bottle that they would finish all 3 bottles....haha! That was the night Jim passed out face first into the fire! LMFAO! Nope of them ever drank that shit again. I ended up with the 3rd bottle and no one knows what happened to the second🤣🤣
 
We had stopped by the church hall to set up for later today's celebration. Went outside for a round of cheer and heard a couple of bald eagles chattering. Looked up and spotted the 2. Looked for second at them as I pointed them out to everyone. Then I looked further and noticed there was 6 of them! We are a family of 6 and that was dad's favorite bird. It was a pretty special moment. 🍻

That’s awesome. Definitely a special moment. Again so sorry for your loss man. At strouds we’ll have a few cold ones for him.
 
Yesterday was a blurr. So many people stories and memories. And I can comfortably say that no one drank more than I did. 🤣

Thanks again for the all the support everyone. TOO really showed. I'd have to count how many showed face at some point the last few days. Probably close to 10 of you guys. One of you shouldn't have and that was a little extra special. Thank you TOO! Family has very little to do with blood.
