I just love this story, you take the reader back to another place and time. I admire how your grandfather had so many useful skills and talents. He didn't really need any modern conveniences. His life is also so much a part of history with his background and his variety of skills. Your story is well written and holds the reader's interest.

I'm so glad you liked this story enough to award it six stars. You made my day. He wasn't Amish but he certainly lived like them.

What an amazing man your grandfather was! Yes, not only was he multi-talented, he treasured his time with you. That says a lot and it shows how you learned to love storytelling. Best wishes in the contest!
