Mike they live about 3 miles away and thats not close enough. Since I retired I hang around with the 15 month old at least one day a week and when I drop him off it's depressing. Gave up two trips to go steelheading waiting for this little guy and it was well worth it. Enjoy your holidays with your grandson.
