Great Grand-pa

Great Grand-pa

When I was 20 I met Rick’s grandfather, Hershel Baxter. Grandpa and I shared the same birthday and we also shared a love of gardening. Til he left this Earth for his Heavenly home he worked his garden. Always piddling in his shed and digging in the dirt. Yesterday I acquired Grandpa’s gardening tools at their estate sale.I know he picked these up over years and each had their purpose. I have eaten plenty of good tomatoes and vegetables grown with love and nurtured by his hands. His treasure certainly is in Heaven and til I join him there -I will cherish these tools he left. “There is nothing better for a person than he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil” Ecclesiastes 2:24
