May 14

Lets pretend today is May 14, because I'd like to introduce you to Darrel.  He's the father-in-law of one of the least consistent bloggers ever.

That would be me.

Darrel's a pretty interesting character, and a fantastic father-in-law.  He's pretty quiet most of the time, until he's thought of a good "Darrel Joke", which are usually random, and always good for a laugh, even if we're only laughing at how funny he thinks they are.  He can quote every Mel Brooks movie, loves his wife's cooking (as do I), is exceedingly proud of his boys, and makes the women they married feel loved and accepted.

He's also a busy, successful farmer, and awhile ago, I went and did chores with him.  And by did chores, I mean I took pictures of him doing chores and pestered him with questions about cows.

I love cows.  

I took lots of photos, and he answered lots of questions.  Did I mention that patience is another of his virtues?  It was a good day, and I'm thankful to have him for a father-in-law.


Happy (late) Birthday Darrel!
