Christmas Uncles

christmasdadMy uncle was a man who took pleasure in the simple things. He loved taking vacations where he could seclude himself and listen to classical music. During the holiday season, he liked to drive through neighborhoods with Christmas lights with his wife. Sometimes they would even indulge themselves at an exquisite restaurant. His brother Frank, however, never understood why anyone would want to leave his own home where you can smoke on Christmas morning without even getting dressed.
-Even though this picture looks like my Uncle Johnny from the 1960′s, I’m pretty sure it’s someone else. I just wanted to make up a story around it.

  1. Looks like Jack Nicholson to me. Hope Uncle Johnny reads this, he sure was something and would be happy to know you thought of him.

  2. I remember John; especially when he and I had to go to the hospital for meningitis. That’s no fun.
