Carl Byron Dysart, Jr., 1921-1987

Hooked a big one

:)

Grandpa Carl with one of his latest catches.

Mom recently told me that when he and Grandma lived in northern Washington during World War II, they lived next to the water and threw all their vegetable scraps, etc. out the window for the fish. That was the first I'd heard of their ever not living in Walla Walla.

Miss you, Grandpa. Can't wait to see you again.

Happy Birthday, Gran and Neenaw :)

Mom, Ernie, Neenaw, BC, Mel, Gran

We had a birthday party for Neenaw and Gran at Van Giesen our house in Richland. Something happened to the cake that Mom had to "fix" and it ended up looking interesting.
