My Grandad is in his 80's. He is in very good health and walks to the mail box and back everyday, a one mile trek. He does things most old men don't do. One of my favorite memories of him is him trying to teach my brother and I how to dive. He didn't have a swim suit so he cut the legs off a pair of wrangler jeans to swim in. He's a rancher, all ranchers in Texas wear wranglers, it's an unspoken rule. So, back to the pool. He proceeds to dive in the water but instead does a perfect belly flop! Have you ever seen a 70 year old man wearing wrangler cut offs do a belly flop? We could not stop laughing, including my grandad.
This afternoon my mom e-mailed me a photo titled "Dad's new toy"...

I can't wait to watch him in person!

He goes once, twice a day around the circle. His goal is to work up to be able to ride it to the mail box. It might take a few months but he said it's either going to make him or take him!
