Sins Of The Father

Mr. Clark arrives at the dock ten minutes after his son Fred whips his crabbing boat out onto the river bound for the bay. Mr. Clark's mate loads the boat with supplies. Over my shoulder he watches me work, "I can wait a little longer if you need to finish", he says. No thanks I'm good. I've got it; I can get the rest from memory. With a life time of skill he backs his old boat from the dock with an arcing turn then with another he speeds out through the narrow opening. 7 days a week, same as my son he says.
