Ya know, I'm actually getting ready for my grandpa's 93rd birthday party tomorrow. I edited a video about our lunches together that he is gonna play before the party.

He is very excited. In many ways it is a farewell party. He is going to have items from his life on display, and then give them away (to family or charity) afterwards. He has been going through his files the last few months preparing for his death.

He told me a few weeks ago:
"If a fetus had a choice, it would be terrified about leaving the womb. But it is a natural transition. The same is true with death. We are frightened of the change from one state of being to another...but we are ignorant as the fetus. We have no comprehension of what awaits us."

Amazing old man. And he LOVES Tassy and my hair!
