Hey Wally why don’t you plan a vacation and go with her would do you some good, but wait you can’t leave your wife and babies at home by themselves. Wife might crown you for going without her. You go grandma. Anyone have an idea to grandma’s age? Or is that treading on dangers ground/terriotory?

@ kab2rb, that’s a loaded question! : ) Old enough to know better and young enough to ignore it, I always say.

I know I asked a loaded question and also some women my mom included do not like to give their ages. Val’s mom looks great for her age. My own mom at that age wouldn’t do what she does. Me I am older then both Val and her sister.

Sad, she’s about my mom’s age but acts WAY younger! My mom would never travel by herself either! Way to go Evie! I should show this strip to my mom, as inspiration? ;)

Evie must be in a good mood, or Wally must have delivered the line right – some cracks like that get you blasted with a hose, or ducking a makeshift missile!

I was read old Evie strips and saw in 2005 that she was 19 years older than Joan, and Joan was dreading her 39th birthday, so Evie was only 58 or 59 when she was travel to Africa and meeting Arnold. The shock was realizing I was closer to age to Evie than Wally or Joan
