You did not say how long the trip is to get there, I hope that you and your son get to see him often. Hey Cal, he is doing much better. The trip is only about 45 minutes from our front door so we get to see him often, and he'll drop in on us from time to time as well.

The fishing hole was out back about 100ft Wow Charles! That does sound like a wonderful time you had in your youth. Sounds like a Tom Sawyer type of life!

There are many here in this very forum that are close if not the same vintage as my pops, and you guys are just from a different time where you made due with what you had, and you made it if you didn't have it. That's my dad. I appreciate so much the generation.

It's always enjoyable, my wife and I plan on living our lives out up there someday, once the hustle and bustle of work and kids is finished and they fly the nest for their own lives, once they are all settled, then it's our turn. We are also open to other areas of our country for retirement as well, but the transition to our local mountains sure would be an easy one.

He does have a neat flare for it, and he's not even aware of it which makes it even more special. He just does it, grabs a few sticks off the ground, some scraps from this and that, cuts em and glues em and paints em. It's really neat.
