Forgotten Spain picture warning: Without realizing it, morfar gave our guys a job and a memory to boot. Morfar has almond trees and a large supply of nuts he probably doesn't know what to do with.

We were outside playing one day and morfar dropped a big bag of almonds and two hammers and walked away. I'm not sure he said a word.

Pretty steadily for the next hour or so Dad, Jake and Sam worked on pounding almonds out of their husks.
Turns out Sammy liked to eat them more than hit them.
And Jake was great with the hammer.
Morfar gave us a small sack of almonds to take home.

More keeper snaps.
Almond trees in the yard! Neat.
Very industrious activity...and a great memory.
