10th Anniversary - Days 3-4

We stopped in to see my Grandmother for one night, and while we were there we crossed paths with my parents who were heading from Texas at the same time we were heading to Texas.  

This is my grandmother, Betsy Ross Tanner, in the middle. She's my mom's mom, and we call her "Bitty".


This is Bitty's dog, Andy. Phil is always fascinated by dogs with bulging eyes, and Andy's look they could pop right out of his head! 


My father in all his majestic glory. Just look at those suspenders!  


We visited the old farm in McKinney that once belonged to my dad's father, Charles. My dad put this KEEP OUT sign on the fence over 30 years ago and it's still there doing its job.  


We saw this beautiful old hearse in an old warehouse in Melissa, TX. It appears to be from about 1915 or so (judging by the wooden-spoked tires).  We wanted to go in and get a better look at it, but the "museum" was closed.  We called the proprietor, but he said he was busy celebrating his 75th wedding anniversary!!!
