We had a WONDERFUL TIME gathering again for the Thanksgiving holiday at Doug & Michele's. As usual, the food was FANTASTIC and there was plenty of it. I know full well there are many families suffering a financial crisis right now. And knowing too - many military families are separated for the holiday, I feel "We are truly blessed".
Josey and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with our son and daughters ... and I was back with my little buddy (Ethan) again. Being a grandfather is much more fulfilling than I ever expected. I can't explain it! I am so excited about it, I had to grow a gray beard to be authentic. There's just 'something' about seeing my own flesh and blood reproduced in a second generation that brings great reward. And my daughter, Faith is SUCH a good mother.
Then there is my fishing protege', Cassy. She "whooped" all the guys in a fishing contest at the pond behind the house - by cranking in two beautiful Largemouth Bass. My daughters are both gorgeous gals that know how to bait a hook, and are not afraid to get their hands fishy. I love that my girls enjoy fishing. That was a family activity we often enjoyed while they were growing up. And they are good at it!
