As for the treasure hunt, the location of the loot was revealed to me in a dream, as I told your kids at the time. Of course, I would have ignored it, but they insisted, so I merely showed them the very spot in the yard, and they did the digging. I'm sure we were only inches from the chest when we stopped digging, and there are two reasons why I believe this is more than the residual effects of the 60's on my mind. First, if you dig anywhere else in my yard, you'll come to large rocks within a foot or two of the surface. There were no rocks at the spot we dug, as your children will attest, and that suggests that someone had previously dug in that very spot and removed the rocks as he prepared the resting place for the Spanish jewels. Secondly, about four feet down, we found old pieces of worked iron. I have these on my mantel at home. Someone had dug there before! A little more patience, a little more digging, and we'd all be in Fat City today. Faith, my dear. Your kids know the truth, and someday, we'll get back into that money pit and find the chest. I love you. Thank you for thinking of me on my birthday, and thank you to all your friends and family who wished me well in my decline. By the way, I think the local airport had to change its air traffic patterns because of my corn. And there was that Fee Fi Fo Fum giant that tried to climb down my corn stalk ....<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/>The FatherhoodSaint Holidayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01531081133769195666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1972912984919271871.post-55903173167436239202008-02-06T11:59:00.000-08:002008-02-06T11:59:00.000-08:00What a great tribute to your dad, he sounds like a...What a great tribute to your dad, he sounds like a great man.

In the office, a prior worker left a plant. Your father has named the plant Robert. This plant has blossomed under your father's watchful eye. When he was going on vacation, he even emailed me on how to care for "Robert". And he's always the first to uplift all of us.

I love seeing how much he is like his dad. He actually quoted your dad the other day with the..."Best behavior for your Savior." Josiah sings in the bathroom too...I'll spare the words to the songs, but they are always from the heart! Fortunately, we don't have a window in our bathroom! <BR/><BR/>If you're reading this Dad,<BR/>Happy Birthday! I thought about you several times today, but was out and about for most of it. Hope it was a good one for you!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01497767747485229338noreply@blogger.com
