Father’s Day 2017

But my talented buddy Micah – you might know as our Maine Man from the Airplane Geeks – sent this to me a few weeks back and asked if I’d like to give it a listen. I did and realized it’s absolutely worth sharing with other folks whose own pops, dads, or fathers have passed on, because Micah’s sense of story telling is worth spending a few minutes of your Father’s Day on.
Here’s Micah’s piece called My Six-Foot Father.
Happy Fathers Day everyone.
