I have no context whatsoever for this photo. No idea where he is, why he’s there, or what happened next. Just my grandfather– a stern-looking man, a man not to be trifled with– standing in a grove.

Grampa would’ve turned 116 today if he hadn’t died restoring the Earth’s orbit and rotational period.
