Memories of Grandpas


I peeled an orange the other day this way...just for fun, and it reminded me of Harold Guy Jones who is my grandpa.  He always used to peel oranges this way.  He would also try to peel an apple with a knife so that the peel would be one continuous piece that looked like a big spiral.  Guy Jones, my grandpa, liked to take us to the church across the street from his house to throw balls against the wall and catch them.  He'd also take us to the schoolyard which was just through the block from his house to play on the playground.  You'll never guess which school it was...Whittier Elementary, the one where I now teach!  Who knew?

What is a memory you have of one of your grandpas?  Share it in the comments.
