I/we continue to contribute to our grandkid's physical/athletic skills, academic strengths, pass on philosophies of our life and experiences in many different areas of our lives, thus far. My wife handles the academic portion as well as manners, tact, respect, support and love for one another. She teaches them loyalty toward friends and a strong commitment to a work ethic.

I've helped with physical and athletic skills; volleyball, baseball, soccer, football, track and cross country. I've coached my grandsons in baseball, football and track/cross country. I teach them commitment to their sport, practice, team and how to be a gracious winner and not to be a sore loser.

This past year, I've gone back to teaching/instructing young men about the fire service. Our eldest grandson is very interested in becoming a firefighter. He's joined the local Explorer program with the fire department and the fire department explorer post advisors, also firefighters, have asked me to attend their monthly meetings, make suggestions, share experiences and assist with instruction on various aspect of the job.

One thing we've worked on together to contribute to our girls and grandkids is what nudism is all about. We've exposed them to it on an intimate basis with just the two of us and skinny dipping in our backyard, to the social aspect of the nude beach, our club, a local resort and a nude vacation to a beach resort in the Caribbean.

We try hard to pass down things we learned from our parents and grandparents without sounding like or being too much like our parents and grandparents. ;-)
