A little family history - this is a picture of my great grandparents on my dad's side. If I had been a boy, I would have been named for this handsome fellow that looks just like my dad. (They are all short...notice the rolled pant legs...)
If you want to compare, here is a picture of my dad at a similar age...
One better...
This is Grady (on the left, orange cap - pictured above on the right) with his son, my grandfather - Papa George (on the right)... super interesting note - Papa George always wore coveralls or overalls...seems like "father like son," huh?
This is my great grandparents sandwiching their children in age order...
I am going to do my best with the names (MB, Mom, Dad - help me)...Grady, Herbert, Henry (called Mac, the reason Dad requested to be called Mac by the grandkids), George (my grandfather), Ruby, Alma, John, Dan, Christine, and Corrie.
And I will leave you with this beauty...
Right to left - Allen (Dad's oldest brother), someone I don't know, Dad and the beauty on the right - Mom!
