Whistle while you work.
My old man always sang that
sitting on the couch.

That has more meaning than I could express to you. My brother was a tugboat engineer. He loved the river and lost his life in it, in New Orleans. Funny I didn’t even see it that way when I wrote it, but it makes perfect sense. A very good fit.

Hardly could there be a life as romantic sounding as one lived as a tugboat engineer on the Ol’ Miss… I’m sorry for your loss.

Thank you. Being a Navy man, I’m sure the appeal hits you head on. He would run the Three Rivers area, up into the Ohio Valley as well. He died doing what he loved, does it get any better? Some would say he had it all. His life was a helluva story, most of it not for children though. Oh well, even in death life goes on…..
