As I've posted before in this journal, my grandfather (Papa - see corresponding tag) was the center of my childhood. I wanted to be exactly like him

Awww, this touched me quite a bit. I grew up in a rural area, and I loved the descriptions of the garden.

Thanks! I wish I had pics of the place. I think it's what inspired my love of botany.

I agree, this is very touching. What a lovely memory to have.

Farming and botany (and any hard work one does with one's hands) is often so beautiful.

Thanks! I don't think I have any memories of Papa that aren't wonderful.
