gettin lei'd in fillmore.....

My Grandpa Jack is 80!! and you wouldn't even know it! he is the most active 80 year old there is.... there as been one day in my life that i remember him not working and not doing his hair! He still runs his farm and runs his theatre down in Funmore... I can't even believe how much he's seen in his 80 years... he's been in wars, been to so many foreign countries, and still works as hard as i've always remembered... and i swear he notices everything, that must be where my mother gets it from... when i took my cousin's engagement pictures at his farm he noticed that i had moved his pitchfork!! haha.. but what an amazing guy, and an amazing life....
And because i'm the favorite granddaughter i actually let someone take my picture with him.... :) i told him that its only because i'm the favorite... i'm always behind my camera... ok.. i'm pretty sure he tells all of us we're the favorite, but grandpa jack and i both share a love for photography. his old school 35mm was the one i learned how to shoot on and started back into it with. so with a lot of his help i take the pictures i do today... thanks so much grandpa jack! we hope you had fun at your Luau! we love you!
