Forgotten dreams...

Many years ago, dad and I talked about getting our HAM operators license's, but we never got around to it and life kept on going. I hadn't thought about it in years until my oldest friend mentioned that he had gotten into amateur radio and was waiting for his ticket to show up. Thanks to Rick spurring me along, I tested today for my Technician class license and passed. I think dad would be happy
