The last time we were home in Alabama, I hit the jackpot of old photos of my grandparents. Most were images I'd never seen before. I was particularly fond of a shot showing my teen-aged granddad leaning up against an old Ford, clearly dressed to impress in his Sunday suit. It's definitely a keeper. :) But while finding that photo was such a treasure... I like this new one below even better. I like the smile lines, the freckles, and the baseball cap he's worn for as long as I can remember.
Comparing the two photographs - one taken well over 50 years ago, one taken moments before - I was reminded once again that in life we are always changing, learning, growing. It is quite an adventure, quite a journey.
