Story behind the name of Me & Billy (as told by Billy Collins)

I’m one of seven kids, number six in the lineup. From Davenport, we were fortunate to have a home at Lake Okoboji, in northwest Iowa, where we spent many happy childhood summers. Oh those days at the lake! Our biggest concern each day was what activity we were up to: fishing, boating, swimming, water-skiing, playing on the beach – the options were endless.

My little brother, David, and I were constantly looking for fun. His persistent question was “what are me and Billy doing today?” Our parents bought us a little boat, dubbing it the Me & Billy, to try to keep us busy. We have a photo displayed at the bar showing the two of us enjoying a ride on the lake!

I’m so thankful to my parents for the experience of those blissful summers at Lake Okoboji. I’ve been able to share my love of the lake with my family: wife, Mary, daughters, Frances (with her husband, Jordan), Tricia, and Sarah, and grandson, Luke.
