Every penny, every minute of time has not even come close to what this picture @Ms Tramguage took of my father's first time on the dock and feeding the fish is worth.

Did you really make Pops walk all the way to the dock from the house?

Nope rode in the Pioneer !

Sounds like you will need to give Bowen some driving lessons after TO. So he can drag Pops out fishing whenever he wants.

Yep!!!

Have made a little progress on the stock tank.

Assembled and installed a 18ft area rating windmill.

Put the Pioneer to work hauling the boat down to the tank.

Dropping in the areator stone.

Well it has been a long time getting to this point.
I asked my father if he wanted to go down and feed the fish this evening. Little did I know he was bringing his fishing pole!!!

Well anyone that has been following this knows this has been a dream of the wife and I to be able to have a safe easy access place for my 96 year old father to fish. Well today was THE DAY for the first catch!!!
My emotions are all over the map right now.
All the time,$, and sweat are forgotten when I saw that smile!!!!
Now he can enjoy this fishing spot with his grandkids and great grand kids. Maybe it is me that will get to experience these special events!!!!

Spending some quality time with my Pop's, im not a fisherman. Time is precise so I need to learn how to enjoy it while I have it!!
He will be 98 on November 21st , Lifes too short, so use it wisely!
I'm hoping to retire soon and spend more time with him. The things I think are important can wait.
