John Loves Great, Great Grandfather Isidore


Last week, we had a lovely time on Larchmont Blvd. We wen't to Chevalier Books to get some books for John. The reading lady just fell in love with our little man. She read him a couple of books and he was just having a grand old time. As we were paying for the books, we noticed there were a couple of books about old Los Angeles. Of note, there was one about the West Adams district near downtown. Back in the day, that's where the society types of Los Angeles lived. Maureen was flipping through it and found a photo of her great grandfather, Isidore Dockweiler. When we showed it to John, he had a giant smile and reached out for it. Here's a shot of our John trying to touch the book and Great, Great Grandfather Isidore.
Yes, John does get his middle name from his great, great grandfather's last name.
