And just to sort of keep this on topic, he loved the 69 Camaro his son (my uncle) bought when he came back from Viet Nam.

Awesome picture Danial. I voted on Friday to keep that rifle your grandfather is holding safe in the hands that own it, along with all the other wonderful freedoms this country provides us with!

YES! Whichever way you vote, I'm thankful we live in a country that allows us to make that choice!

OMG YES! My grandpa once repaired the top on my 68 GTO convertible. I pulled into my grandparents' sandy driveway and told him that the top wasn't articulating correctly. That man fabricated a part on the spot and installed it. I was about 20 years old and in awe.

I miss him. He was an incredible human being. Grandma was pretty damn cool too.

Dammitt I'm making myself sad now. Cherish what you have people.

Thank you. Yes it is. He was in the US Army's 101st Airborne Division. As tough as they come but with an incredible heart. I was living in the woods at age 15 and I would drop in once a week or so. Never asked for a handout and he would never give one but while I was splitting and stacking their fire wood or mowing their yard, my grandma would cook me a meal and my grandpa would give me a few bucks and ask if I needed a ride somewhere.

I have strived to be much like them for my own granddaughters.

Being a Grandparent is so cool isnt it? You get sort of a second chance of doing things right with them that maybe you didnt with your own kids. Now that we have a fair level of wisdom, we get to take alot of opportunities to teach and show them how to do things and how things work. My wife and I have been blessed with a grandson and a grandaughter and we love spending time with them.

You are spot on! My daughter has asked me on a number of occasions, why I treat her daughters "better" than I did her. I tell her that I'm making up for the goofs when I was young and less wise. Don't get me wrong, she wasn't treated badly, grin... like most parents though, I could have done a better job. :-)
