Last Father's Day I wrote of depression. This Father's Day I write of anger.

I have been struggling with that gaslighting, freeing … Continue reading A Father’s Anger

A Blast of the Past #161: Rip Cord
The RipCord has become a tradition, one we didn't miss two seasons ago when we toured half the Cedar Fair Parks.
