Well here I am in 1972 at the age of 4. I am with my grandfather as he builds my fathers workbench. 43 years later im building my own workbench. He taught me all the names of tools he could and by age 7 I could get whatever he asked for.

It is and its just to bad everthing has gone digital. So easy to loose memories. Yes i know you can still get film but man its so expensive to develop. But they will last a life time. Ive lost pictures of my kids growing up on sd cards. The gold prongs got scratched and opps cant recover the digital photos. Somethings are just best left alone.
