MY Dad

My dad is great! Today and yesterday he stayed home from work, this morning he said to us "I'm going to tell you a bit of history".

So he told us this so called "History" which was infact how my mom and him met for the first time. By the time he was finished, we shouldv'e already started school by that time.


Well you could say by this my mom looked a little annoyed. BUT instead of starting school like my mom wanted to........ Josh and I...... Maybe I should say I started asking more questions, like what Dare Devil type things have you ever done.

So he said, "When I was roughly nine or ten my friends and I made a ramp out of plywood", Now there was this creek that was taller than my dad at this time and little wider than fourty-two inches.

So his friends said I bet no one could jump the creek ( with there bike ) and guess who said 'I can said MY DAD' So they set the wramp up infront of the creek.

And he took off! Peddling and peddling until he hit the ramp he went up and, and, and, once he left the ramp he knew he didn't peddle hard anough while he was in the air he knew he wasn't going to make it.

So like most creeks how they have a ledge he hit it and started falling back INTO THE CREEK! Ouch submerged under the water with the bike ontop of him! So with his friends to the rescue,he was saved.

After he regained his strength. He said 'I'm going to try agian, BUT this time I'm going to peddle faster'! So peddling and peddling and peddling, Up the ramp in the air over the creek and safley on the other side. phhhew I personally would never do that, EVER!

After he finished I asked 'How many stiches have you goten in your whole life?' And he said, 'Around Hundred-fifty' WOW! And that is ONE of the many times my dad has been a Dare Devil.
