whats your accomplishments?


I went to the Y the other day and everything looked the same. Nothings changed. But there was something different i did notice, it was a picture of my grandfather. A huge picture in the hall i never noticed before. I think it was a picture taken at a golfing event for the Y a few years ago. It made me realize how much he's really accomplished. My grandpa's been to africa and lived there for a few years. He's done so much even in our community. His accomplishments rage from anything to helping in africa to helping build bird houses with kids. If youve ever met my grandpa he's not very normal. He's loud, outspoken, odd, and offers to build or fix anything you have. My grandpa's favorite thing to do is build things. anything. If he hasnt made it yet he probably wants to in the future. He's made 3 bikes so far and two of them hold two people at a time and the third one the places where you pedal are higher up so your seat is lower. He makes swings, household things, boats, doll houses, and pretty much anything i think. And to top if off he just bought a sailboat and came over and showed it to me yesterday. I look up to my spontaneous crazy grandfather alot.
