Ditto on what DJD wrote - Thanks for reminding me of what's REALLY important in our lives each and everyday.

An excellent post. Delivered as good a message to me as anything I've read in a long time. Happy 50th, and may you see many more.

BigPoppy --- wow --you said it all...like others who replied above have said already, you have put it all in perspective...... We should all be so lucky to wake up each morning whether it be to head off to work or to head off to the lake, but most importantly, just to be there another day for the ones we love...

Happy 50th Birthday and many more....keep us updated on your endeavors and especially your fishing trips to the H2O....... tight lines...

Thanks for sharing that story with us; it's so easy to lose perspective in our everyday lives. I wasn't blessed with children, but if I had been, that is what I would have dreamed of doing, enjoying the outdoors with our future generations. Happy birthday and God bless.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Puts you to thinking of what really matters most in this old world that we all tend to take for granted at times. Happy birthday and hope you get to make many more memories for years to come.
