The Sanctuary... The Day Grandpa Died

My grandpa Happy died this morning. I visited grandma and took these pictures in the back yard bird sanctuary he loved so much. The ducks and geese are nesting and laying eggs. A blog posting not a fitting tribute to such a man... and it isn't one. Just a look at the beauty of a special place on the day it loses it's caretaker and defender... who ensured it's safety for generations. And how that the place is somehow changed forever by his absence.

Hey Mike,

I am sorry to hear that your grandpa passed. I still miss my grandpa and he has been gone almost 15 years. It's amazing how certain people in our lives affect us and who we are.

Take care,

James, Ivone, Emma, and soon to be Liam
