As I turned into my drive, the car filled with my grandfather’s scent, cherry smoke and unfiltered Camels. – 06:07 AM GMT
He was my mom’s dad, a sharecropper from northern Missouri who relocated the family to Washington in the late ‘20s. – 06:08 AM GMT
He drove logging trucks after that until he retired, say 1930-odd until about 1970. He was huge, and kind, and funny, and laughed easily. – 06:11 AM GMT
The Camels got him, and he died of lung cancer and such in 1978. My brain is telling me something here by showing him to me tonight. – 06:12 AM GMT
Not that I have any idea what that might be. It was nice to smell him again all these years later. – 06:12 AM GMT
