I'm still enjoying the
I Heart Faces blog. I had been planning on participating on more of their challenges but as of yet, haven't seemed to find the time! But this week is about hands and I have a favourite photo in the archives.
I've always loved this photo. To me the cards and weathered hands, made it instantly recognizable as Marlin's grandpa. His grandparents only play card games with
Rook cards.
When grandpa saw this picture of himself his only comment was "Why is my head cut off?" I could have predicted that would be his reaction!

I love it! I just plain love it!
Love this! What a story in this photo!
Playing rook! I love that game. Great picture and funny comment from your grandpa! :)
I love it! One of my grandfathers passed away when I was very young. The only thing I remember about him is he loved to play cards.
I had 2 old maid great aunties that always came to look after me when my parents travelled. They taught me rummy and numerous other great card games. Wonderful times.
Thanks for the memory jogger!!

LOVE this photo!! Reminds me of my Grandpa! Plus, I have a photo with my husband's Great Grandmother's hand - I think old, weathered hands are so beautiful!!
This is beautiful! These hands have done a lot in life and that is pure beauty in itself!
I love "grandpa's" hands.
