I would go, with or without your Dad. Your Dad still remembers him, and his step dad, so he can decide for himself. But you never even knew your own real g'father, being 2 when you saw him last. My Grandfather (Dad's dad) left and my Dad never had a relationship with him. I saw him a few times when I was a teenager, behind my Dad's and G'ma's back. Mom knew about it but it would have made both furiously mad. At the time, I was just curious about him. Now that my Dad, grandpa and ~ma are gone, we (Mom and I)have a closer and closer contact with my step aunt (his stepsister), and all of his side of the family, reunions almost every year, visits, etc. I would not want to miss that for anything in MY LIFE!! In the end, you can decide for yourself only, not for your Dad. And as it was stated before, all those folks really don't know you, and what I can gather it is not their fault either, but they are still living .... and so are you. On a very personal note, multiple girlfriends, wives, etc.....: My Grandfather started out as a Roman Catholic Priest....many "transfers", ....then Old Catholic (German splinter off the RCCh), ...protestant minister..... deacon.... layman...you fill in the rest. He still was my grandfather. Ralph.

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
