Papa

I got to spend some time with my grandpa over Thanksgiving.  His name is Joseph Aaron Jackson, but we call him Papa.  He's now retired from the Amarillo Fire Department.  I was really excited to get some shots of him with his old helmet.

He also had a lawn care business that he would run on his off days.  For my first job, he would pick me and my brother up at 7 a.m. and we would help him mow all day.  I was paid with Toot 'N Totum cokes and candy bars, but I didn't care because it was awesome.  He recently got a tattoo of a guy mowing on his head.  Does your grandpa have that?  Didn't think so.
