    I didn't think I'd live to see this title bestowed.

    Today I'm a Great Grand Father. I think I'll have a Back Woods smoke and a beer.

    You sir are a lucky man, enjoy!
    I truly believe we need to get back to basics.

    Get right with the Lord.
    Get back to the land.
    Get back to thinking like our forefathers thought.


    May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you
    and give you His peace. Let all of the earth – all of His creation – worship and praise His name! Make His
    praise glorious!

    Congratulations

    I worked with a guy from Kentucky gave out cigars for his first grandkid he was 34 years old at the time his wife was 36 his daughter 17 years old and unmarried . I am afraid I upset him when I said "I do not think I would tell anyone"! He was laid off within the year I do not know if he ever got his job back that was 1980 the beginning of a recession .
    When I think back on all the **** I learned in high school it's a wonder I can think at all ! And then my lack of education hasn't hurt me none I can read the writing on the wall.

    Same here. 31 and 29. I am not in any hurry and just want them to be happy. Grandkids would be the icing in the cake. Congrats on being a Great Grandfather. My gf had her oldest out yesterday with family, including her grandson who is 16. She is five years younger than me. She let's me share her grandkids ranging in age from four to sixteen.

    Congratulations to all who know the joy of Grandchildren. My Great Grandson will be 12 in Feb/24. My Granddaughter, Great grandson and I spent 2 weeks at my cabin in August. This is the second year I have had the joy of teaching him about guns, shooting and reloading. Other years it has been berry picking, fishing and other outdoor stuff.
