Between the innocence of babyhood and the dignity of manhood we find a delightful creature called a boy. Boys come in assorted sizes, weights and colors, but all boys are the same. Boys are found everywhere … on top of, underneath, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around or jumping to.
Mothers love them, little girls hate them, older brothers and sisters tolerate them, adults ignore them and Heaven protects them.
A boy is Truth with dirt on its face, Beauty with a cut on its finger, Wisdom with bubble gum in its hair and the hope of the future with a frog in its pocket.
When you want him to make a good impression, his brain turns to jelly, or else he becomes a savage, sadistic jungle creature bent on destroying the world.
A boy is a composite … he has the appetite of a horse, the digestion of a sword swallower, the energy of an atom bomb, the curiosity of a cat, the lungs of a dictator, the shyness of a violet and when he makes something, he has five thumbs on each hand.
A boy is a magical creature … you can lock him out of your workshop, but you can’t lock him out of your heart. Might as well give up … he is your captor, your jailer, your boss and your master … a freckled face, pint size, cat chasing bundle of noise.
But when you come home at night with only the shattered pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with the two magic words, “HI, DAD!”

I love the park, being out doors, seeing the greenery and taking in the fresh air….awwww, did you feel it?? Mother Nature, shes beautiful.
Papa Al came in to town in an Easter visit. To set the mood the family went to Irvine Park…Have you ever been? It’s a huge park…HUGE!! The park has lots of rides and attractions, what ever your heart desires.
You can ride a train, ride a bike, rent or bring your own, ride a pony, rent a horse, visit a zoo, that’s right I said zoo and for the cost of only $2.00 per person, what a deal! Others attractions include an Easter egg hunt, a pumpkin patch and much much more.
Anyways I don’t get to see my Papa Al a lot, he works up in Detroit working on a project and he doesn’t have Skype yet, so here are some photos, I love his silver hair!
