This post is meant for Jake's granddaddy, not mine, whose birthday is in November. As Dad says (the man whose birthday this is, I mean), we should refer to family members by their names according to the least common denominator. Or he said something like that. Anyway, we call people what Jake calls them, to avoid confusion.
Today my dad is doing a book signing...somewhere...(I know it ends in Salisbury, NC, tonight) for his book, In The Footsteps Of Daniel Boone. He has been on tour pretty much every week or weekend since the book was published and will be until November. Sometime soon after that, he'll be heading to the Alamo to do further research on his next book. And I've heard this rumor from my sister that he's been booked to speak on a cruise ship in the spring??
Well, before he was all that, he was still my dad. And Jake's granddaddy. We couldn't have asked for a more loving, genuine, thoughtful man.
(There's your present, Dad. That's all you get from me, but Jake might buy you a Transformer if given the chance.)
