You wouldn’t know they were not related by blood.  Step brothers for nearly 20 years now; these two are often accused of sharing the same brain.  This picture was taken during one of our many family dinners.  The difference with this one was that we had the whole family, kids and all, out in public.   Who makes the scene?  That’s right; the guy wearing the shirt that says “I’m Part Of The Problem” and his sidekick.  They say friends are the family you choose and we are lucky to have our favorite fireman as both. I am lucky to be on vacation with the fireman’s wife.
