That is both a precious photo and story. Yes anybody will come to Biasy's aid. I hope I spelled that right.

Hooray indeed! I lost both of mine a long time ago, and I always wished I had gotten to know them better . . .

Thank you for your uplifting comment, and Phil and I would understand one another.

Actually, those are pretty safe motorcycles.  The whole thing is a "float" in the parade with the cycles just sitting on it.  And yes, grandpa is a motorcycle man.

He looks a great guy. I wouldn't mind being on a motor cycle if he was steering.

I love it! He's creating beautiful, sunny memories for these kids, whose childhood is darkened by the loss of their Dad...

I love this photo and the faces of all three. I hope this is only one

of dozens of happy times they share.

Re: So sorry WileyJohn

That's the way it goes sometimes and it seems that nothing can change it.  Son #3 got Phil and his ex-wife got the other three and it has turned out with them like you say here.

I'm sorry to say that I haven't been able to be a good grandfather,I was a good father after I sobered up, but the kids seem to hate me for having been an alcoholic before they were even born. Their momma passed on a lot of hate.

That is so special and I do believe that Grandpa has the biggest smile on his face of all of them.
