Thirteen year old Alex received a letter from my dad the other day. After reading it he informed me with great excitement that Grandpa was giving him his old chevy pick-up truck and they are going to rebuild and restore it together!
I know that truck. Dad bought it used when I was in high school. At the time it was only a few years old. Now, it’s nearly 30 years old.
A couple of days later Dad brought the truck to the house.
When my son looks at it, this is what he sees:
But this is what is actually sitting in my yard!
My yard will never be the same.
You captured your son’s thoughts so perfectly with those pictures. I’m sure he will be delighted with his new lawn ornament..uh..I mean restoration project. What an insightful grandpa!
