Grumpy

"Grumpy" is my 84 year old father's nickname, and he's as far from grumpy as they come. Still ballroom dancing several times a week, plays drums for the senior centers, has to be told NOT to get up on the roof to clean the gutters. Married to his childhood bride for 64 years so far, and counting. He's my dad, and I love him so!

Now I know why you are always playful!

He looks like a great guy...I see now where you get your sense of humor! Very attractive man, he is! Your Mom and he must have been the best looking couple around! And, still are! Great shot of him, Gary! Made me smile!

Why do I think we'll be seeing a photo of you like this many years down the road?

They say you become your parents, at a certain age.
I'm confused on who became whom :)
Hi Dad!
My Dad gave up roofing last year with the last shingling job. Now he's stuck bumping out a living room 20 feet. He'll be 80 in March.

Like father, like son.

Looks like he's enjoying himself :) He reminded me of the grinch when I saw the thumbnail. His nickname cracks me up.

Delightful shot, and now this explains a lot where you got your sense of humor.
