Grandpa is an acrobat

Interesting story... I just learned that Grandpa accidentally locked himself out of the house, he didn't have his phone with him and didn't know my phone number. Well, he knew a nearby window was unlocked. However, it's a challenge for me to climb through so I can't imagine how he got through it. But he did it without breaking any bones. They did hide a key so that won't happen again. I still have a hard time picturing Grandpa climbing through windows :)

As of Thanksgiving 2009

I asked my Mom to arrange for Grandpa to wear his favorite sweater because I wanted to do a mini photo shoot for him to get a new picture for his blog. So here you go! This is Grandpa just after having turkey dinner last week. As you can see, he is quite content.



If any of his family or friends want a full size version of this photo, then please leave an email address in the comments and I will send it.

War stories and a message to Shae

Grandpa tells a story about how he got sick during WWII while in the service. It has some humor to it, he kept accepting cough medicine from different nurses and it put him to sleep for a long time.



This next experience happened after he recovered from his bad cough, he and some guys went out to explore.



And this one is mostly for Shae, sorry for taking so long to get it up. It was the last one in my "grandpa" file and I had forgotten it was a special message.
