He past away. We had a close relationship; actually in some ways more of comradeship. He constantly traveled and it was normal that i be his companion. Trips started as soon as i was old enough to travel, i think; since the greater portion of my dad's memory is dominated by scenes of distant places. In grade school, there were these occasions where in the middle of class i'd be pulled outside, told i'm exempted from study that day. As it was during incidents like this—my father would come for me as we were bound on an unexpected new trip. i thought impromptu trips were the coolest kind of all because it really made feel very special, even grown-up; plus the promise of a voyage to the unknown. i suspect the school viewed this with contempt, however. It was a great lost, my dad passing on. Now many years have filled the distance since his death. The pain of the lost is gone just a void in my chest that never seem to be filled, yet in the everyday things i see and experience and who i am bind me to the past where i can see my father's silhouette. —thanks, i really enjoyed this post. Even without your camera i could see the scenes you describe vividly, by just your words. i was touched and reminded of childhood. i lost my father when i was a child of only eight years.
