He wasn't known for his culinary prowess, but you might believe so after viewing this picture -- it's one of my favorites. What he did pass down, though, was a love for photography -- the same love that both my mom and I share. In fact, he probably developed this in his home dark room. It was the same spot where I spent countless hours building model ships at the butt crack of dawn and marveling at how someone could smoke a pipe without wearing any teeth. Well, dagnabit, he sure knew how to have a good time. Missing you, Grandpa.

What a cool way to remember him. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletekaroline,
ReplyDeleteYou have a great way of summing up the essence of who your grandpa was and how you have taken just a little of who he was for your very own.
Know we love you lots,
Maddy and Jerry
