the slalom

sean and my dad discuss wind velocity 
and sunglasses they should or should not be leaving on the dock.
or maybe that was me.
whichever.
at 67 my dad still rocks the slalom like when he was in his twenties on lake Okeechobee.
of course he tells us he's not up to par because it's his first run of the summer,
but we all know that none of us in our thirties could even get up on that thing,
let alone 
get up,
be pulled up and down the canal five times,
and then go for a second round.
amaaaaaazzzzzzing.
yep, that's MY dad:)
so proud.
