Four Years

I can not believe that it was four years today that my dad passed away, just five days after his sixtieth birthday. It doesn't seem like it was so long ago as I can still vividly remember that Sunday afternoon when I found out. I still think about him frequently, and will do so even more when I am on my tenth RAGBRAI next month. RAGBRAI was something that I with my dad from my first RAGBRAI in 2000 through 2004. I have ridden each year since then as well which means that after this year's ride, I will have been on as many RAGBRAIs without my dad as I was with him. I do really regret that he wasn't able to meet Emma, nor will Emma get to meet him.
