Fathers and Sons

Going over my referrals I lucked out in finding this interesting bit of writing on Snugg Harbor and urge anyone with a teenage or older son to go and read it. I’m glad that I did!

From time to time I felt his presence next to me while I was driving. This was the first time dad made it to the house. I glanced up from the monitor, looked at the smoke curling up from the ashtray. I smoke cigarettes. But the odor of HIS cheroot was noticeable. He was here.

“Well, you see he is sorta spinning his wheels…you going to help em out? You know I would have talked with you, if you would have asked.”

“Yeah, dad, I know…..” Damn, am I talking to a ghost? …”
