Leap Year

Construction Man's grandad, Grampa Charlie, was born on this day in 1905 in Gobel, AR. He has since passed away, but we always remember him come the end of February.

He says they moved his birthday to Feb. 28th so that it came around more often!

He was a hard working man of the oilfield. He and Grandma Marg had seven kids. They followed the oil booms from Texas, to Oklahoma, to Colorado, to Wyoming. They never had much, but we sure did have some great family dinners when my girls were young.

Grampa Charlie called our three daughters "Charlie's Angels!" They sure are all that!

Happy Birthday, Grampa Charlie. We miss you!
