Sometimes it takes years to figure out your father. My father could be tough, and sometimes, I have been told, he could be gentle. That's what my mother said of my farmer father, the family disciplinarian. Not long after he died, she mentioned the obvious - that he was a manly man with manly attitudes and appetites. He relished baseball as a player and football for the fun of watching it on television. He killed his Idaho ration of one deer almost every year, occasionally an elk and no small number of ducks and geese. My grandmother - his mother-in-law - told me when I was about 8 that "for a while, we didn't know what we were going to do about your father. He was always getting into fights at barn dances"/Bill Hall, Lewiston Tribune. More here.

Question: Tell us of a fond memory that you have of your father?
