Super post…
My mother in law has so many wonderful interesting stories that I would like to some how document… She is in her 70’s now… And when she starts talking about the war… & how things were in Norway during the “olden days” I am memorized.
We can learn so much if we just take the time to listen….

Know what advice I seem to remember most from Grandpa? ” Whenever you are out on the road driving, just figure the other guy out there is a darned fool.” His way of telling me to drive defensively I suppose. I think of that everytime I see a driver do something stupid–which is getting to be more and more often. The good thing about that is that I get to think of Grandpa often.

This was a beautiful post and so true. I treasure my grandparents while they are alive and think about them often after they pass.

I agree wholeheartedly! Well-written and with a message. Would be nice to see more recollections from your dairy farm days. Seems like you had a glorious childhood…
