We have grandparents and grandkids this week!
Charles Ramos & Alexandra Reyes-Ramos (grandfather/granddaughter): Charles is from Tampa Bay, FL; he's a retired Air Force navigator, and he collects coins from different countries...and his wife gets angry when he gives them away. Alexandra and Charles went skydiving for his 70th birthday, literally jumping out of a working plane for fun (and no, she was not trying to get his inheritance).
Linda Phillipp & Riley Richmond (grandmother/granddaughter): Linda is from Stockton, CA; she collects salt & pepper shakers, and she likes to entertain for her big family (Pat insists that's not crazy at all...but spider body parts would be). Riley is from Los Angeles, CA; she's a senior at UCLA majoring in psychobiology and hopes to goes to physician assistance school.
Christine Humphrey & Jessica McPeak (grandmother/granddaughter): Christine is from Layton, UT; she has been married for 54 years (to the same man) with 2 kids and 4 grandkids, and she's a "fly-fishing granny". Jess is from Davis, CA; she goes to UC Davis and is studying design, hoping to go into user experience design.
