I think that must have been Jennifer's Grampa.. mine didn't chew tobacco.

I just now realized where I got my love of the woods.   Grampa started
taking
me on short hikes around the property when I was a toddler.  He pointed
out
things in the creek, and told me about the trees, and showed me where
the berry bushes were.    Now I *really* miss him.
