This is my Grandfather. 

He fought so that my generation might not need to.

Growing up, my grandpa would never talk about this time in his life.  The memories are too hard on him.  As he is getting closer (not too soon, I hope!) to the end of his life, he has began to open up. 

I’m going to frame this layout and take it to him.  Hopefully I can get him to tell me more (I’ll be sure to come armed with a recorder of some type).

I designed this layout as a sample for the new My Mind’s Eye blog challenge.  If you’d like to win new My Mind’s Eye products, just design a layout/project based on this line from a U2 song:

“Every generation gets a chance to change the world” Amber

You have until midnight, MDT on September 24, 2009.
