Humanly Henry
Description:... "Daddy, Daddy!" cried little Megan as she sat gripping the seat of the small aluminum boat.
Henry had tried to ignore her. He was irritated that the outboard motor had quit in the middle of the lake, and he was now forced to row back to shore.
"What?" he snapped, now closer to shore.
"Daddy," Megan said with a tear rolling down her little cheek. "You are going the wrong way."
Henry looked at the shore behind him. He saw Belle and three little girls waving at him.
"Thank you," he mumbled to Megan as he turned the boat around.
He knew that his error would bring laughter to his friends, and he smiled as he thought of a way to embellish the story.
Henry Rimmer considered himself an average guy, "no better and no worse than anyone else." But misadventures seemed to find him more than the average person. Whether it was love, family life, or fishing and camping, his friends knew something would go wrong. Henry would struggle to find solutions, sometimes breathing a prayer for help; but once he resolved the problem, he would laugh and embellish the story as he relayed it to friends.
