Default Re: Gift Suggestions

iPod, iPhone, GPS were suggestions I was thinking of.

Or... a portable photo printer? I've got one by HP that has a battery pack and I take it to parties and other family events - even did a wedding once. People were THRILLED to be able to take pics of the wedding with them when they left the wedding.

Here's a link to one very similar to what I have - http://bit.ly/1GvHms

Got one of those digital picture frames for Christmas last year and just got around to getting it loaded and running this week. I now have it loaded with special pictures (one reason it took me so long to load was finding all my picture files) and I really enjoy it. Definitely a top choice but suggest it would be better if you preload some special pictures on there he would enjoy, sort of "prime it".

Now as a father myself and having lost my Mom and Dad in the past few years I will pass on some of the best advice anyone ever gave me on this very subject: When your parents get older the best thing you can give them is your time. I truly believe this and even though I gave a lot of it I wish I could give more now.

That's what I was thinking. Load up some pics of you "back in the day". Some favorite pics of your mom, siblings etc...

Trust me you will want a pic of the smile on his face when he watches that.
