This is what my family and I look like!

If he's patient and keeps trying, she will most likely become more trusting. God bless him and his brisket!

Lee, the kitty loves them.
Elaina named it Butterscotch.
I just snatched some photos of the night he was up watching the brisket with the kitty in attendance.
Their lovely property up on that beautiful hill, and the brisket.
I never in my life thought Ty would be so into barbecue and smoking when he was a kid.
He's an expert!

My class… some had to leave early due to heavy rain and other commitments.

The short guy in the back, left, with the white mustache and I were childhood friends and fishing buddies. He still is an avid fisherman and would rather ice fish than warm weather fish. It was so good to see a lot of these folks but was so glad he came. I don’t think he ever came to a reunion before.

I got all the gossip about affairs and the like, too. Fun times.

Any old flames in that pic from back in the day? :yankchain:

No, but very good friends. The one old flame was supposed to come but her husband has PSTD from Nam and they left a few days before I got there. He doesn’t handled crowds well and is a asshole, from what I was told.

Post Traumatic Stress from serving in 'nam.
I have like 6 residents right now who suffer from it.
They aren't assholes.
They served their time and were left with a marked disorder, just like my cousin Kenny was and my Uncle.

Today we went to Heber City to shop Walmart and Sportsman’s Warehouse.
on way back we stopped at Heber City Dairy to buy cheese and get our
yearly ice cream cone. I got a salted caramel on the bottom and a ice cream
made by the Utah State Univ. Creamery on top. It was a raspberries and chocolate chunk
that was excellent.

True Aggie Night; chocolate and raspberries.

I've never shared a picture of my Father up until the time shortly before he passed away.
This was about 18 months before.
He and 2 of his best Navy friends had a fishing cabin in Florida.
After he retired from the service, he was ready to just be himself.
No uniform, no flash, just a Dad and a man.
Papa John.
