I find myself at the stage of life where you look at your families next generation growing up with admiration.
Having no children myself, my nieces and nephew are whom I admire. They truly are the best of us. Today I speak about my only nephew, Cbug.
Seventeen he is now. I’m sitting in a boat on a lake in Utah. It’s the 4th of July Holiday weekend. The water is freezing due to the excessive amount of snowmelt from the preceding winter. Cbug braves the cold though in his wetsuit, and shows off his mad skills on the wakeboard.
I see his Dad’s good looks and talent in him as I watch him glide over the water. I see my brothers in his personality. We all have many faults, but a few good qualities too. He is the combination of everything good we have strived for in our own lives.

How I love spending time up here in Fruity with family, but this weekend was all about my love for my nephew.
