Dad

Jason just might be the only seven year old to stand on the top of Eagle Cap.

With huge blisters on his feet, disappointment showed on your face when Dad said," No you cant finish the 50 mile hike with the older Scouts."

Sleeping in a old red Tent with Dad (your legged) that week in the mountains was to accomplish everything the older Scouts did.

You were sick the night before we left Portland but as always -no complaints.  We drove 300 miles and hiked 3 miles up hill to our first Campsite. Once the Mountains were in your blood they stayed there forever.

Now with a boy of your own it wont be long before you will be sleeping in some old red tent listening to the sound of the night together.

Goodnight son---I love you.
