This is exactly how I remember Grandpa Wasden, who worked every day of his life until he finally had to go to the nursing wing of the Lovell Hospital. You think you can't tend a garden in your 90s? Look at the size of his patch. And this photo of little Jim hightailing it in front of Jas. B. (no disrespect) always tickled me.
A picture is worth a thousand words. This is such a touching picture and what a story it tells.
ReplyDeleteThe younger has done well with the name. I am sure that the older must be as pleased now as he was then. The picture is a keeper
ReplyDeleteI've never seen this wonderful picture! So many pictures of Grandpa in later years shows him all stooped over. Love this picture of James and James! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWas this photo taken at the same of another photo I remember of Grandpa standing in the garden leaning on his shovel? Love this photo. The determination Jim the younger shows in this photo is definitely a chip off the "old" block.
