I can’t think of any fictional dads that stand out to me, but my dad is pretty cool. He’s turning 80 this year, and just bought his second recumbent bike. Last year for his birthday he rode his bike from Afton Illinois to Grafton Illinois, about 15 miles along the great river road. He has been doing some pretty amazing oil paintings, after having been a photographer all of my life. He’s had his artwork and galleries, sold it at art shows, and most recently had a one-man show at a prestigious gallery in Illinois. He’s also retired from a career as a systems analyst and programmer who most recently did all the data analysis for the city of St. Louis Police Department, all without finishing his college degree and having taught himself computing back in the 60s. And just a couple nights ago, he fixed my leaky sink. So he’s pretty awesome. :-)
He sounds like a super dad! I can only hope to be 1/3rd as active in my 80s. Mostly I imagine myself eating a deli sandwich and complaining to the nurse that my Metaverse brain helmet is too itchy.
Yeah, I’m with you. He has more energy than I do! And that’s with congestive heart failure, a pacemaker, and God knows what else going on for him. He’s amazing.
