Talking Off Topic: Mentoring

Had an opportunity today to work with two of the most influential people in my life! These two have taught me pretty much all I know (no comments from those who actually know me!).
Here they are knocking down the body on their Gaucho, prepping it for new paint.
My youngest was also on call for the local hospital, hence her wearing the stethoscope.

Seems the apple didn’t fall too far from the tree. Lovely daughters. And another in the medical profession?
You must be exceptionally proud. Congratulations!

Permit me to add your lawn (festuca arundinacea?) is also getting along quite nicely. :)

Thank you boys! Yes, I am very proud and trying my best to keep myself in check, so I actually enjoy and capture these moments. Life, in general, is chaotic. It's easy to get caught up in it and lose sight of what is truly important. My wife, apparently much smarter than myself, reminds me that my car will never love me back...lol

My lawn secret....hire someone who is better at it than myself.
