dear old dad was a 100% pure icelander. a true viking. he had my back for 60 years and the thought of not having him watch my back was truly distressing so i took action. once again, he has my back. he is watching my back at this very moment:
i sealed a portion of his ashes into the regal viking. his is the first face i see each morning and the last face i see before retiring for the evening. my sister is not amused. she was upset when i sent her a photo journal of the entombment and ceremony i performed. she and i are polar opposites. so it goes.
i love you sons of bitches.

Well, maybe you could give her a share of the ashes to put in her chosen receptacle.
What you did was a lot more dignified that what Walter and the Dude did with Danny's ashes in the Big Lebowski. I wonder if that scene is available in You Tube.
I don't recall you mentioning your dad dying, when was that?
gb - i think you tube contains everything ever produced on the planet. those google boys are thorough.
king - earlier this year.
I might have a chance to visit Iceland this fall. Sorry about your dad passing.
Coffee is on
I'm so sorry...but if he's a true viking..then he's flirting with the Goddess and drinking beer made by Aegir...
dora - a trip to iceland, sounds like heaven on earth.
js - he's in asgard reviewing budgets and charting stars for odin.
A fitting tribute, and a good way for you to keep the conversation going with the old man...
thims - me and dad were always shaking hands are perfecting our grips. just like me and sonny do every time he drops by.
as long as you and i are here, put it there.
i hope you and atticus do the same thing.
