Movie Star!!!








The Rockford Files and Star Treck... not movies ... 70s TV shows.

I watched these shows as a young girl and thought my dad was like James T Kirk and Jim Rockford. Maybe not so much how they looked, but you know... daring and dashing and wise and funny. DO-gooders. I have not seen an epsiode of The Rockford Files in years... I think the guy was a little scruffy / fly by the seat of your pants type. That obviously doesn't remind me of Dad but something about him did. He was a "good guy". Seriously, I thought my dad was Captian Kirk. I was so proud of him. Now that I look at the photos I think they were also kind of big chested like dad and he was sporting those sideburns in the 70s. Oh, this is rambling but cute, the other night from the bathtub, Rohan held up a cup of water to me and said that he had made a potion to let Grandpa come back from heaven and he would be back tomorrow. ah well.
I give Dana the "your comment ought to be a post" award again. so cute about the egg peeling Dad. I was listening to you and Sherry talk about going to Disneyworld with Dad and really wondering what that was like. He would have been so much fun.
Love to you all.... and it's almost Monday where is your Dad/Movie star post (excepting Becky)
