Your story about your Dad reminded me of my Dad. I was the baby and always had a thousand questions. My Dad made up answers if he didn't know or was just tired of my endless queries. When I was little we'd go on a 6 hour drive to visit his parents and we went through a town that had a Continental Can Company. I asked what they made and he said CANS. 14-15years later I married and my DH lived in that town. First time he took me there I commented wondering about what size cans they made and for what. He told - it's a paper manufacturing plant they don't make cans. So see you could have been grown and married when you finally got it figured out. Thanks for jogging that remembrance.Khakihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02103243009454747880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-3593704322191235062010-09-24T14:09:22.217-04:002010-09-24T14:09:22.217-04:00Oh a photo walk is good for the soul.
