Default 1st Grandson

As old as I am it’s surprising, but my first grandson was born 2 weeks ago. My wife is down in Cherry Point NC visiting my son Drake and his wife, so my wife is sending tons of pictures. They named him Walker in honor of the wife’s uncle, shot down in Vietnam
My sons lab just had a litter of puppies 3 weeks ago, so I’ll be going down later to visit and bring a puppy back for another son of mine.
1st pic is my son Matt holding Walker. Second, the proud, and obviously distracted, papa.

Yea Congrats...so what is the roadtrip time from Wis to NC? Looks like a great reason to get a Cessna 182 and pilot license.

My wife said 16.5 hours if you drive straight through, doing the speed limit of coarse.
