Just felt like sharing a bit of life.

The boy is about to graduate from high school and go to college...

Today was his last day of school...


It all started 13 years ago when he went off to Kindergarten....

And today....doesn't he look excited?

And of course there was Prom last weekend... Yep now he smiles...

Looks like he's having a "Napolean Dynamite" moment, "Gaw Dad, can we just go? What's the big deal?" :lol:

Yes congratulations Z!

Chris, you really know how to hurt a guy. It has been 30 years for me and it does seem like a long time ago. Back when I shot slides even and there was no internet or cell phones...

Jeez BDK, maybe we need to go down and get some Geritol...and dig out the Jack LaLane and Flipper videos....I think I know where I can lay my hands on a 2" video player.... sure could use some Ethyl for one of my cars...31 years out of high school for me. My two boys are 8 and 2....and as of now, early retirement in 2015 is out of the question. It's starting to look like I'll make the 40+ years at work before I retire. :shock:
