We celebrated my incredible Dad's birthday a few weeks ago and I wanted to share a few pics of the birthday bash. My dad just turned 80! He's an awesome man, one that I have so much love and respect for. He is also one of the most talented men I've ever known. If he doesn't know how to do something, he teaches himself! I can remember when I was young, he decided he wanted to take an electronics course. One of his projects was to build a television from scratch. Apparently, as he was plugging away on the project, he somehow mistakenly skipped a step (or something like that) and the TV sat hidden in the corner of his work room for ages. We used to tease Dad about his TV, only because he could always figure out a way to fix things. His tenacity and determination where boundless! I think he finally met his match with that TV,though! I'll always remember the giggle and grin he would give us whenever we asked him how the TV was coming years later. Hmmmm, I wonder whatever became of it? It probably went to TV heaven, who knows?! I'm sure Dad will never tell!
