In loving, living memory, John Melançon 1928 – 2007
Mom told us this story.
Mom and Dad, young, camping the first time with a new tent (a big frame canvas one that Jakob, Dan, and I remember well from when we were young and the tent was old).
Mom eventually figured out how to get the tent set up.
Not long after, three attractive young women came into the next campsite. They could only see Dad, and came over and asked:
"Can you help us with our tent?"
Dad replied:
"No, but she can."
Pointing his thumb toward Mom in the tent.
They were very disappointed.
