Hey Dad,

Just stopped by the old Wilson homestead to restock the RV and change our winter duds to summer duds for the next leg of our trip. Of course, ready to welcome us home were a whole bunch of inconveniences—like a broken dishwasher, broken mower, and a small infestation of rodents.

The good news is that the dishwasher is fixed, fellow Familyman Mr. T fixed my mower, and I've knocked off a few of Mickey and Minnie's cousins (the kids thought that was cool—and disgusting).

But I do need your help on two little items. First of all, I need your prayers. It's not about the RV this time (but don't stop praying about that one) but about my flight to Montana on Friday morning. Because of my stupidity, I scheduled the flight at the wrong time, leaving no margin for any delays. So would you mind asking God for a delay-free flight? I sure would appreciate it and so would the dads and moms in Montana—I think.

The other item has to do with nose hair. Yes, nose hair. I'm not sure if it's my age or what, but I seem to be sprouting hair from my nose like Indiana corn in the spring, and it's starting to scare me. I don't mean to be vain, but it won't be long before I start looking like one of the old farmers down at the local diner who has a shaving brush sticking out of each nostril.

I've tried scissors, but my mother told me to never stick sharp objects up my nose and so it feels wrong. A weed-whacker might work, but it would probably leave scars. One thing for sure, if it gets much longer, I may have to braid it. That's why I need your help.

I was over at the Familyman Forum the other day and saw that "EaglescoutJB" was looking for a line on some hair clippers. That's when the idea hit me to ask others dads for nose hair trimming ideas, gadgets, miracle cures, or home remedies.

So if you'll remember to pray for my flight from 7 a.m. (EST)–10:30 a.m. (PST) on Friday, and pass along any ideas for battling nose hair, I'd sure appreciate it.

You 'da dad,
