They’re both great, so I thought I’d share them with you.
The first is a photo of my Grandpa Hi-Guy (also known as Robert Joseph Steib). In this photo, he’s poking a stick at the one creature he feared most: a snake. Maybe not a great idea, but definitely a great photo.

The second photo is of my Grandpa Shady (also known as Robert Kenneth Shady). In this photo, he’s sitting next to his mother, my Great Grandma Mary. He looks like Little Lord Fauntleroy here, doesn’t he?

When I got home from the interview I printed a couple of the photos out; I figured I’d drop them off at his studio the next time I was in the neighborhood.
And then the photos sat here on a table for a year and a half. Last week, I finally decided to just send them out in the mail.
Yesterday, I got this in the mail:

He even signed it and told me to “stay shady” which, you know, I get a lot:

Obey Shepard here.
Thanks, Shepard.
Free books are the best books,
…and I shot a few (phone) photos along the way! Enjoy!
The dogs played in the water… and one of them got Cold Water Tail.

We made chili and drank a lot of booze!

And we saw a bunch of this crap, too.
