Behave Yourself Boy

My grandson doesn't seem to be too intimidated by the father of his date for the Prom. This is the same boy that was sitting on my knee which seems like only yesterday. I thought this was pretty Redneck until I realized my grandson wasn't wearing a sleeveless shirt and his date wasn't wearing bibs with a Tee Shirt. No one was injured in the shooting (don't say shooting) of this photo. Pickups courtesy of Chevy Chase and Henry Ford.

...and Tick, it isn't "Redneck" when the tie and pocket hankie match her dress, lol. I bet you had a whole bunch of stuff swelling up seeing this grandson grow up. We have all watched him doing it over the years through your eyes and your camera. Enjoy it, my friend.

On the plus side that ain't a shotgun Pa is toting, so there won't be a wedding in the boy's immediate future.
A good capture of scene, TicK.

What is that guy...a Rambo wannabe? He must not be very intimidating to your grandson...he is smiling! Maybe he is thinking about the race coming up between his Chevy and that Ford. Pretty cool shot, Tick!

Lovely and very humourous Tick. Your grandson and his date look great and her father with that huge "shot gun" and an amused look. How time flies!

They soon grow up, don't they!..Ann says he's a bonny lad and had a bit of a swoon over him...while I drooled at his date!...lol

A proud moment for a parent/grandparent and one to be treasured!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Great photography! :)
Ron, your grandson and his young lady are very beautiful and stylish. Such a pretty girl should be protected if necessary and arms... Ron, your grandson is very radiant and good-natured young man - a wonderful young gentleman. This man would never hurt a lady.

The smile is genuine but he's shaking in those trousers. Do I detect a little underarm wetness? What a hoot, TicK!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

This is a classic Tick and I remember him playing baseball quite a bit younger in those shots!

Great glimpse into your family life and into American life. Proms are coming over here and teenagers end their school lives with a prom. I'm pleased to say that they weren't around here back when I left school!
