I figured that since I have to blog about a family member that I would blog about someone who has been an influential person and had an important impact on my life. My grandfather is a great man who I have been very close to growing up. When I was young, my grandpa’s house was somewhere I went a lot and really enjoyed. I always had fun at his house. His house is located in the woods so there were a lot of fun things to do. I used to go on adventures through the woods on his property and he took all of us grandchildren on four wheeler rides a lot. I loved spending time with him because of the stories he would tell. He had so many sweet stories from back in the day when he was younger. He used to do so many crazy things when he was a kid. One of my favorites was when he had his Cadillac and ran from the cops. Something you can’t really get away with anymore. His war stories were very interesting too. He was a tank driver in World War II and was oversees in Germany for three years. My grandpa has been the biggest role model in my life. I credit who I am today from his life lessons. He has always been there whenever I need him. When I got arrested last summer, he was the one who came at 3 in the morning to get me out of jail. My grandpa is a very interesting man and I aspire to be like him.
What was he doing that made him run from the cops?
ReplyDeleteThat's what I was thinking. That's a hilarious story, Although I realize this is when he was younger, I picture an elderly man in a Cadillac being chased by a bunch of sirens.
ReplyDeletethe story i was refering to, he was mistaken by the local police to be a suspect who robbed a store. so they chased him but he got away. one of the police cars flipped in the chase.
ReplyDeleteAlso, he out ran the cops on a snowmobile once during a big snow storm.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome what a great story.
ReplyDeleteHe sounds like a great man.
he is a great man. i love going up to visit him, he always has something interesting to tell. especially when he's drunk haha
