We're back from our cruise to good news

We came back from our cruise today to some good news! The cruise was a great time. I won the ship trivia contest (3,000 passengers) and almost won the alligater wrestling competition. As for the good news, my daughter Becky had her baby yesterday (baby boy named Luke, 7 lbs. 2 oz., 20 inches). Becky and Luke are both doing great and will be back home on Monday. So, I am a grandpa. Humm. Not too sure how I feel...I don't feel old. I don't think I look old. Oh well. My first grandson. Maybe I should buy him a U.S. Savings Bond but I'm not sure it will be worth anything in the future.

Also, Scotty graduated also from Washburn Rural High School on the 17th but he doesn't like attention (very, very shy) so I didn't mention it before.

Wow, you won the trivia contest; your memory is still strong! Congrats on becoming a grandpa. My recommendation is to set up a retirement account for Luke.

Shouldn't I work on getting one for myself first? I have retirement pension from 20 years with the Church but I need more than that.
