Spent time with my grandson on the lathe - gear jammer - 06-29-2016

This afternoon spent time in the shop. No phone, text, messages or whatever a teenager sees as priority. I had the greatest time and snapped a couple pics on an old camera I had in the drawer. It doesn't get any better than that and its living large.

In a very short time, your grandson won't remember what texts he had today, what clothes he wore, what the weather was like, or even what he ate. Like so many other typical days in his life, these things will all melt together. In thirty years from today however, he will remember his time this day with his Grandpa. It will be a warm and fond memory and he will smile, and the moment will live again in his mind and soul.

Good for you!! Good for him too !!
