Two of my favorite people in the world.
I find it interesting that my father chose to wear a Granite Construction Company shirt on the first official day of his retirement. I think it’s symbolic. Dad worked at Granite before I was born and the day this photo was taken he woke up for the first time knowing he never would go to work again.
I always knew one day I would end up here. That I would grow up and be a cartoonist and be married to a beautiful and formidable woman and that one day my dad would retire. But now it’s here. Now it’s today. It’s just just something that is assumed I’ll reach one day in the future.
I bet you didn’t think all that was in this photo, did you?
