Vacation: Part 14 - My brother.

As I love my mother and father, I too love and admire my brother, Jason, very much.

We had a middle-class childhood and were never wanton for things. We had a strict upbringing and though we don't always agree with our parents, we always speak fondly of them. I have always said I wouldn't trade the experiences of my childhood for a million dollars. That is true. He is well-versed in many aspects of the outdoors - bowhunting, guns, fishing. He hunts deer, turkey, grouse, pheasant and other game birds. He is proficient with a boat on a lake and will fish or hunt long into the night - long before everyone else has called it quits. He's an electrician and works for himself. We're quite similar - and quite different. Perhaps that's why we get along so well.
