Dad's sayings

I am sitting here this morning contemplating if I will go on my walk as I planned, last weekend I left dodge to get away from the snow and this morning there is even more snow than last weekend .  Oh well that's Alberta,  the birds are still singing.

Yesterday while driving home after being in at work and doing some errands a song came on.  It hit me that is was a song my Dad liked and it got me thinking. What are the things I got from him that got me to where I am today?

I started to chuckle to my self and thought it was sayings he said  all the time. I began to think about them and started to write them down:

"You can't have a bad time fishing"

"You can"t beat that sunset"

In the middle of a heat wave in the summer he would say "Let's go swimming before the lakes are covered with ice"

"0keydokey"

"That's a damb good fire tonight"

"Everyone has some good in them"

Those are the ones I remember, in the song he liked the saying that made both of us laugh was:

"If the horses tail is facing South you must be headed North"
