The Writer as Grandfather and Son: Stretch, Stretch, Stretch those Generations

With my grandson, last week in New England: A Buster of a Boy, All Movement and Wide-Eyed Wonder

I was taught by my grandfather that anything that your mind can conceive, you can have. It's a reality.  Lenny Kravitz

I phoned my grandparents and my grandfather said 'We saw your movie.' 'Which one?' I said. He shouted 'Betty, what was the name of that movie I didn't like? Brad Pitt

I don't know who my grandfather was; I am much more concerned to know what his grandson will be.  Abraham Lincoln

I just spent five days in New England visiting family. Dad is doing great on his 91st B'day and we are aiming to emulate him. He's still walking and laughing and enjoying life, and still sharing a bed with Mom after 67 years. "What's your secret?" I asked. "Keep moving," he said. And he does. And laughing. Lot's of laughing.
