914World.com _ 914World Garage _ OT: Dads and Grads

Posted by: type47fan Jun 18 2005, 10:05 AM

It's that time of the year. . .just wanted to share. . .my daughter graduated from high school this week and it affected me more than I would have thought. She was accepted to Cal Poly and wants to be a cultural anthropologist. We'll see.

Daughter two will be in the 10th grade in the fall.

The past 18 years have zipped by and have been wonderful. Looking forward to things coming over the horizon, good or bad. Anybody else?

Congrats to all dads and grads. . . .
