I love how you write so much. Reading this I was right there with you. I had the same conversation with my Angry Old Salt (my Navy Vet husband) giggle.

Very similar but you put it into words so much better then I ever could if I lived two lifetimes.

I loved how you took the walk together, and the bonding that was as much as he could take in one day. hahaha HOw precious was that. Don’t ya just love them. Big smile.

I love how we both are married to our Heroes. God bless you and thank you for sharing and writing. God has given you a wonderful talent and I am so glad you share it with all of us that love your Blog. Thank you.

Sounds like my hubby!!! He can just take so much….then he wants to hibernate! But it’s great that he is your hero. I completely understand. It is a good thing to see your hubby as your hero, your protector.
Love the photo of your ancestor (on your father’s side, I presume!!).

BSC: Yeah - he’s my hero most days! Naw, when push comes to shove, even on a bad day, he’s there for me. And yeah, they can only take so much closeness then they have to clean a gun and change the subject or make a joke! lol

Yes, that’s my father’s grandfather - the grandmother died young and he remarried, so I suppose that’s my father’s step-grandmother, the only one he ever knew. Anyway, other side of the family. I do have a couple of interesting pictures from mama’s side of the family though. I’ll post them at some point. There’s some really interesting characters in our common ancesters

Sounds like quite the RetroSexual to me. The old fashioned guy who “takes care of things” and opens doors for his lady. He’s a keeper. ESPECIALLY IF HE COMES COMPLETE WITH HIS VERY OWN GUN!

And the photo of your Greats is PRECIOUS, just precious.

BSC: He only opens doors on occassion, he does ‘take care of things’ and he IS a keeper (most of the time). He comes with an arsenal of guns! lol

Great story. You and your beloved curmudgeon - glad you had a good day of bonding.

BSC: Well, like he said, there’s only so much bonding you can take in one day! lol What can I say, that’s part of his charm. I knew he wasn’t a girly-man when I married him! lol
