And a friend commented about "getting over" losing someone. No, I said. You adapt and go on because that is what we do to survive, but the loss is always there.<br /><br />Dad didn't shoot much after we left the Settlement. But I like to think my interest is carrying on his mountain heritage and that he and his father and his father's father and on back for centuries would be pleased as they watch me, my daughter, and, when it's time, my granddaughter learn the skills that were essential to their survival on the frontier.
