Dad and Mark

Big Sur - Monterey California

The picture above is one that my dad took over 20 years ago on one of his trips out west from Michigan. He would have turned 80 yesterday. My oldest brother Mark would have turned 56 today.

I forgot about it until I saw today's birthdays on IMDb.com, but Mark had the same birthday as Mark Mothersbaugh of Devo, one of this favorite bands. I saved the meme below several months ago, he would have liked it. 

The music clip is from The Old Crow Medicine Show when they were on Conan O'Brien recently. My friend Steve from work told me about them, and when I watched this clip I could totally see my dad dancing along, he always said he was a hill-billy at heart ♥
