My dad is an awesome guy.

He checks my car (a.k.a. Miss Pinot Noir) every time I drive up for the weekend, and every 3,000 miles, he services her (i.e. oil change, checking tire pressure, etc.). This next weekend, he will fix a problem with the front bumper.

| Hiking at Cascade River State Park last summer |
Dad accompanied me to Omaha in 2007 just so I could run a half-marathon and visit a state I had never been to before.

He puts up with a lot of crap from the women in his life, ha ha!

He has given me plenty of good advice over the years and has been so encouraging and supportive of my crazy ideas and dreams. He has always been a good provider for my family. He is now retired and loves to spend time tinkering in the garage, hunting, fishing, hiking and reading.

ReplyDeletep.s. - Yes, I've donated to Locks of Love twice, this past time was to the Pantene Program though (apparently they make wigs for adults, not kids). Such wonderful programs.
Such a great post Richelle. So blessed to have a father like that in your life and to walk you done the aisle!!!
