Pop's Tools

Oil on Board with Black Wood Floater Frame

After dad passed away, my step mother gave me his big red Craftsman's tool box with many drawers. It was so fun to go through the drawers to see what dad had collected over the years. One drawer was full of compasses. 21 to be exact. Another drawer had 52 screw drivers. Yep. 52. I didn't even begin to count the sockets and wrenches. At the bottom of one of the drawers I found a gift I had given him when I was about 16. It was a frame that said, I "heart" Dad, and my school picture was in the heart. After 40+ years I had forgotten all about it, but he kept it there in a drawer with all of his other treasures.
