My dad was a great water skier !! When I was growing up plenty of fun times were had at Nickle lake. I was about 7 years old when he built me a little pair of skies and taught me how it’s done.! We had a great time fishing and water skiing together. Will always remember my dad as being a Jack of all trades and surely enjoyed making home brew and growing his own tobacco. Below is on of my favourite pictures of dad. He loved playing with littles ones especially age 2-4. This is his great grandson Silas.
