Everybody knew when Grandpa had some special location to go. She would go to the barber shop plus come back smelling like bay rum. She would laugh plus nuzzle Grandma’s neck plus she would smile. She said a close shave regularly made her cheerful. I was too young to understand what she was saying, however I remember Grandma’s smile when she nuzzled her neck. After Grandma passed away, Grandpa didn’t go to the barber shop. She said there was no need for a hairsplit plus a close shave. There wasn’t anyone to love it. Then after about 2 years after Grandma died, Grandpa came to the home smelling like bay rum. She looked cheerful plus not so sleepy. She told myself and others she was going to transfer into the retirement community. She had already sold her home plus had paid for a beach house right ‘in the thick of it’. She had heard the ladies were as seasoned as she was, plus no a single wanted a relationship. She just wanted people her own age to talk to you. I asked him why she got the hairsplit plus a close shave. She winked plus told myself and others that if I didn’t understand by now, I never would. Grandpa never forgot about Grandma, but thanks to her close shaves, she had a lot of supplier. Last week, she showed up at mom’s home plus called a big family meeting. I could smell the bay rum when she walked into the house. She had her close shave plus a fresh haircut. She said she was going on a cruise for 2 weeks. She opened the door plus let a lady into the house. She told us she was going to be her sailing mate.
