LOOKING UP, First Thing That flashed into my head was

While still actively reading @melinda010100 post, and being invited to, "The #lookingup tag is for everyone to use! Let's see your looking up photos!"

this was the very first thought that crossed my mind.
Here is a picture of that exact, most conscious, singular reflection I have had in some time.

These are my parents, Ethel and the original BIGSWEED, which was his handle on his now antiquated CB Radio.
Yes, and that is how he spelled Swede. Those of you who know me, and thought I may have just misspelled Swede,
it is in honor of this tremendous man that my HANDLE is #thebigsweed

Big man with a bigger heart,
Family man beyond anyone's imagination.
WWll Vet
leader of men!
In his book there was either right or wrong, no excuses.........

Ethel, tough as they come
Mother of 5, whom she would die for
A husband's dream girl
never ending energy.

Ethel and Bob
PROVIDERS OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
I Have been looking up all of my life.

They have taught me that and by looking up you will always have your chin pointed in the right direction.

This is the second time I have used the #lookingup tag.
I'm not sure that the tag was intended to be used in this fashion,
but I wanted to share with those still out there my initial thoughts.

Here is lookingup right back at you. thebigsweed
