Grandpa's visit!


Scott, Klay and Dad, came down for a visit last week, we had a great time! Scott came down to go to the motorcycle aution, Klay came down to buy a motorcyle and Dad came along for the adventure! They had a great time at the auction, Gordon, Klay, Dad and Scott all set out on Thursday morning for the big preview day, and you would think they were going to an after Christmas sale or something!! Some pretty excited guys..... All came home happy, especially Klay who found his mistress at the auction! She is a beauty and Scott found a couple of bikes to buy as well, so it was a successful day all around. They spent the rest of the day polishing and admiring their posessions! On Satureday we took Dad down to tour the Midway aircraft carrier so that he could relive his old Navy days, and it was a really wonderful day. The weather was picture perfect and the walk down memory lane was especially enjoyable.



Dad was explaining how he was on the "bomb squad". He was an "ordy", sounds like a slightly intimidating job, if you ask me. He served in the Korean War and was on the Valley Forge and the Essex.
