We spent some time in the morning checking out Grandpa's knife collection and his model car collection. He takes pride and has stories about all of his knives. All of his scale model cars are still in the original boxes.
We drove to Wendy's to pick up salads for lunch. After lunch we shopped at Winco Foods, mostly produce. Grandpa Cal makes a salad every day for himself and Grandma Sandra.
Later that night we went to dinner at a Mexican restaurant that they like in Henderson.
On Wednesday morning Grandpa Cal and I drove to North Las Vegas to have breakfast with my classmate Andy from high school. Andy works over night in the ER at UNC. We met him at at a dive restaurant called The Tap House on Charleston. It was actually pretty good.
After we left the restaurant we drove to Red Rock Canyon Conservation Area. The views were spectacular, the day was perfect. Later that day we spent some time in the backyard checking out some of his ongoing projects.
Grandpa Cal is a master mechanic and has an incredible knowledge of everything automotive.
Thursday I was able to ride along with Grandpa to his medical appointment. After that we went to the farmer's market in Downtown Henderson. He bought a few produce items, a lemon cake for Grandma Sandra, and some local salsa.
During this visit Dad shared with me some of his wisdom and values which I will share in future posts.
