I’m glad you got to spend some QT with your dad in his final phase. I’m sure it meant a lot to him too.
My heart goes out to you... but I'm glad that you have each other and that you can share this time, to be with her.
I was blessed to be on a 28/28 day rotation during my father's "wind down" and I wouldn't take a million dollars for one minute that I got to spend with him.
Yeah she has gotten the shots. 1 eye is worse than the other. She only has peripheral vision... she wants to wear an eye patch .... it bothers her.... she can see to take care of the house etc.... her grandma was blind I suspect of the same thing because i remember when I was little that she would turn her head to " see a little bit"
One of my dad’s friends left his left arm on Iwo Jima. When the 50th anniversary of the battle was coming up, the VFW reached out to him to see if he’d be interested in going back for the commemoration. His quote…”I ain’t going back over there and shaking their hands. Those bastards tried to kill me!”
For the Germans and soviets weirdly enough. Henry ford was a virulent anti semite and my dad was Jewish, so who knows why he liked his fords so much.
And in southern va too! Every time me and my dad used to go down to Martinsvulle speedway to see the big modified races, we’d go get those pink hot dogs.
I had a great uncle who left 2 legs
That is a surprise..... but it was different times back then....
Germany and soviets started out as friends
Sometimes best not to know..... hahaha
So for the unwashed…here’s your BBQ primer…You know what? I'm happy to have all three and break the tie..... Where would you consider Central to all three to be? Southern Missouri?
That sounds like a great trip!
Happy Arrival to this World day! Enjoy! Have one on the house!
Thoughts and prayers coming B2.
Thanks! We had fun, were extremely tight, and yes, he told me stories he'd never shared with anybody.
LOL! When my uncle and I would go fishing he’d always bring Vienna Sausages and/or potted meat to snack on. He would tell me they were monkey peters!
I'm jealous I need to get back there
Mmmm ribs
Best thoughts sent.
Absolutely agree....i feel a BBQ crawl coming onSo for the unwashed…here’s your BBQ primer…
NC BBQ - split into Eastern NC (vinegar based sauce w spices) and Western NC (Tomato/ketchup/molasses or sweet)
SC BBQ - mustard based sauce. Good but not my fav…
Both of these mainly piggy
Tennessee - Dry rub spice
KC - a mix of dry rub spice and sweet sauce
Mainly beef and Tennessee mostly ribs
TX - spicer sauces with a healthy mix of the rub and others. Brisket is king
BBQ is kind of like sex…even when it’s bad…it’s still pretty good!
I need to wish you a happy day Miss.... So have a great day didn't be having a crappy day. Okay I could not resist
