irnsrgn Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Karl, I feel the same way about my granfather when I pick up one of his tools. He passed on before I was born, so I never got to meet him, but the old timers who knew him, say I look and act like him. And I take that as a great compliment.

mike-hr Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Karl, Good story! Thank you for sharing it with us. I used to spend summers on my Grandparents cattle ranch when I was 8-15 years old. My Grandfather would always involve me in his day. We would work together solving problems and fixing broken things. We formed an intense bond with each other, and I always think of him when I work my way through a tough challenge. I know exactly how you feel.
