Took The Old Man Out Today...

[Fletch]

Brother is 85 and been bugging me to come up and go for morels across from my house.. We've picked brown shopping bags full there in the past, however it is so overgrown that you can't get through.. However on the top it's not bad... Appalacian trail goes up not far from my house... Currently parking area is closed so I drove down dropped him off, took truck home and walked back... He made it to the top with only one break... He found 2 morels up top... But he didn't miss a beat walking up or around... Illinois in Nov. Will be a piece of cake... So when we get back near the road he sits down while I go get truck... I come back and he says look in bag... While sitting there he spots a big blonde and then sees his buddy... Now he wants to go again...

Great post. Brought a huge smile to my face that's for certain. So good to see two brothers still carrying on like a couple kids and staying close after so many years. Thanks for sharing.
