Wisdom from Grandpa ...

My dad sent this to me, and it made me smile.

Whether a man winds up with a nest egg, or a goose egg, depends a lot on the kind of chick he marries.

Trouble in marriage often starts when a man gets so busy earnin' his salt that he forgets his sugar.

Too many couples marry for better, or for worse, but not for good.

When a man marries a woman, they become one; but the trouble starts when they try to decide which one.

If a man has enough horse sense to treat his wife like a thoroughbred, she will never turn into an old nag.

Many girls like to marry a military man - he can cook, sew, and make beds and is in good health, and he's already used to taking orders.

Old age is when former classmates are so gray and wrinkled and bald, they don't recognize you.

Winter Trip to Gardner Village

Erin flew in from Hawaii this morning. Just before she moved there she took up knitting. Well, obviously the knitting supply options on Kaua'i are rather limited, so she's been dying to go to a knitting store she found at Gardner Village last October. We went this afternoon with Paul's wife Kelsey. Here are some pictures.


The three of us in the Knitting Shop.


Erin and Kelsey outside some of the shops. Brrrrr (Erin was dying! It was 80 degrees yesterday at her house).
