This project is a memoir of my own memories with my father. No he is not dead, he is just not around that much. My dad is a helicopter mechanic and he travels a lot in his job going from one place to another and I don't get to see him a lot. Before traveling, he had a steady job at a hospital working with the EMS helicopters. I got to see him often and I had lots of memories of him playing and sharing time with me and going to all of my activities. But now those memories are locked up in my mind untouchable. My dad changed jobs and he got to travel and I didn't get to see him much, and I still don't. Sometimes it takes 4 months until I get to see him again. He has missed so much that has happened in my life and he and I wont get those moments back. I try to find something new, a new memory to gain, at least one that can make up all of that is missing. Life is short and time and life stages don't last long, so I'm grasping for the little time I have left for something to happen. Will I ever find a key to unlock something new?
