    My grandpa started walking
    Five miles a day when he was 60.
    Now he's 97 years old
    And we don't know where the hell he is.

    He passed by my place several years ago but I didn't see which way he went. He was covered with those travel stickers, the kind you see on old suitcases and trunks, guess he has been having a good time. ;)

    HAHA sounds like something my grandad (dads dad) did many many years ago...he escaped his nursing home and made it to Cumberland Rd (from where the home was it was about 10-15 mins by car). He was trying to make it to Greenfield, which is about 30 mins east from Indy.
