Hi Gang,
We are getting some new visitors to Trainman45 and a lot of questions.
Here are the basics. Grandpa is 90 yrs. old as of this post. He was born 6/21/1919 in Brandon Manitoba Canada.
He is not Canadian, his Dad was working and living up there when he was born. Most of our family are from Minneapolis Minnesota.
Grandpa had 3 sons, Punky was born in Mankato Minnesota, Trainman born in Madison Wisconsin, and Terry born in Minneapolis Minnesota.
You might think Grandpa was a gypsy, lol, he just moved around a lot. The 3 boys carried on the gypsy tradition and we were spread all over.
Punky settled in Las Vegas Nevada, Trainman in Denver Colorado, and Terry in Omaha Nebraska. Notice I said "settled" in.
The 3 boys have had "sex, drugs, and rock & roll" played and lived in many cities around the country. From Atlanta Georgia to Oakland California,
and Dallas Texas to Kansas City Missouri.
The webcams were set up so family in Vegas, Omaha, and Minneapolis could keep an eye on Grandpa while I was at work or sleeping.
I take care of Grandpa he has macular degeneration, can't see too good, and alzheimer's, short term memory is gone.
We set up the webcams 11 yrs, ago in 1998. Started with a 30 second refresh cam then I just went nuts. !!
Now Grandpa has fans all over the world and we welcome all who stop by. Feel free to stop in the chat and say hi or ask any questions.
Stop back when you have time and check out the Gallery to see some pics of family, friends, trains, and members.
You might want to see some of the Videos also. Some are funny, a couple have Grandpa, Trainman and JJ my son in them.
Have fun and spread the word about "GrandpaCam". Thank you.
