Don't know if that's your dad or grandpa but he looks proud.

That furniture pattern. Every working class family I knew had at least one chair or couch like it for a time in the 70s and 80s .

My friend told me a story once about how he was reminiscing with his mom about good old times and happened to mention to her "You remember that time we camped out the whole summer?!" and she replied "Sweetie, we were homeless." He had no clue, but they were fond memories for him. He thought they were just really into camping or something.
