October makes me really miss my Dad. He loved this time of year, hunting season, college football (Go Huskers), cooler weather, and the birthdays of his daughters and his granddaughter, Kelsea. I adore this photo of three of my favorite Burke, South Dakota fellows, sadly no longer with us.

Left to right: Louie Tolstedt, John Lillibridge, and Jack Broome.

This is beautiful, Lisa. The three Burke fellas hunting together sparks an intriguing idea for a screenplay. My dad would have a cameo appearance.
Hummmmmmmm, a screenplay idea. Yes, of course, your Dad would have at least a cameo. Thank you for checking this out.
Your Dad is so handsome! I love October too. xox
