Yes, today is National Grandparents Day, and let me say that I love being a great grandfather to Carson Thomas Lane. Here are a few of the things we did together when he was with us for five days recently.
He remembered picking blackberries when he was here years ago. So we picked the ripe, black ones and left the less-than-ripe red ones alone - for now.

So, what was next. We live off a road that is not a public way, and having Carson learn to drive at 13 years of age made sense. He handled it perfectly.
Carson is an avid fisherman, so I felt it was time to teach him fly casting. It went flawlessly.
Like many youngsters, he has an interest in guns. Teaching Carson the safety issues and dangers of firearms was paramount. He had no issues with my Ruger .44 magnum pistol.
My wife, Linda, and I also took him swimming in nearby Rangeley Lake. He was in the water for hours. Building a fire with no matches, flint or steal was also on the agenda and gave him a brief chemistry lesson. Working with a forearm-building ball containing a gyroscope was a physics lesson.
Linda and I are so lucky to have this youngster in our company, and we learn as much from him as he does from us. His late mom left us a gift.

My name is Craven, and I’m from New York. I used to suffer from Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and I want to share my story to show that healing is possible, even from illnesses that seem incurable. I know how difficult and frustrating COPD can be because I lived through it. Conventional treatments didn’t bring the results I hoped for. But everything changed when I came across (www.earthcureherbalclinic.com) through a simple Google search and contacted them by email at (info@earthcureherbalclinic.com). Their natural healing program made a profound difference in my life. Today, I am completely free of COPD, and I couldn’t be more grateful!!!
