dells68 7,498 #1 Posted September 30, 2017 Sorry that my pics aren't so great, but it was getting late. Emory had been asking Dad to ride a horse with him for a long time. Dad finally decided he would take out my worker GT14. He's had both knees replaced, so getting on and off was a little tough for him. They had a ball! Emory was on his Lawn Ranger from @limited12, Dad on the GT14, and I decided to follow on the 701 I bought at the Big Show. All 3 of us enjoyed the night! 12 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dells68 7,498 #4 Posted September 30, 2017 He is doing great now. In fact, he made the trip to Charlottesville for the auction with us. Hope we can talk him into going to the big show with us next year. Nothing better than spending time with your family, especially on a horse! Great way to finish a busy day. On another note, Becca's Dad passed last Sunday after lung surgery for cancer. Please keep her in your prayers. He was a very nice guy who worked hard all of his life and proudly served his country in the Navy. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dells68 7,498 #7 Posted October 1, 2017 Thanks Richard. Becca is having a really hard time and I'm really dreading the holidays as Walter and I spent a lot of time talking while the others did their thing. I lost Mom 2 years ago Oct 13 and now Becca is going through the same thing. It's part of life, but that doesn't make it any easier. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The older I get, the more important I realize how important to make those memories while we can. I loved my Mom dearly and miss her daily. Her passing has drawn Dad and I even closer. I try to make all of the memories I can with him and Emory while we are still together. Becca is just starting down this road and is really struggling. She cried herself to sleep last night and didn't say a word. Today she will go to church for the first time without her daddy. Sorry to be so down, but life smacks us back to reality really quickly, that's why it is important to have our hobby as a release! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
