This brought me to tears. Heartwarming, man. Seriously.

I'm scared of this happening. My adoptive father and I don't get along at all, and I've never met my biological father. I know who he is, and i have his address, but I'm scared. What if he doesn't know about me? What if he does and wants nothing to do with me? I'm glad that you got to meet him, and that he was a good guy. Sorry about your loss .
I just ordered some new plugs. Going up again. 3/4" -> 7/8" for now, 1" in a few months. After that, no more.
