Shortly after his mother died, journalist Bob Morris noticed with alarm that his 80-year-old dad, Joe, had uncharacterically begun to look for 'babes'. Bob was mortified. Then Dad persuaded his middle-aged son to help him find dates.
Bob must navigate this somewhat 'rocky' relationship, learning to see his father and life in a new way.
The Census Bureau indicates that 80% of widowers will remarry (ah... men you can't live without us women...). So this scenario is a common one for baby boomer children.
Seeing his intrepid father come to life again helps Morris realize what he was missing in his own life.
A funny, sweet story with some honest & outrageous insights and descriptions — not just of his dad but of himself.
