Every time my 14 year old son got mad

at me he would climb the mast using the mast steps to the spreader and stay up there until he calmed down. This went on about twice a month
for three years. It was the farthest place he could go to get away. Now that he's turning 40 and has three kids of his own we get a good laugh
now and then about it. It was just the two of us but we had a crew guy for about 6 months that he could talk with and then once we got to the VI he had my brothers kids to vent at so it wasn 't so bad. Good times.
