We all have people we look up to. Who are yours?

Mine absolutely has to be my grandfather. Even though I didn’t get to know him for long he was the best. He never graduated from any school but was very smart he caught on to things very easy engineering/ electrical/he could do it all without having any education or training. He made his own welding machine/tractor/tools and built his own house (completely). A lot of the old time farmers around here knew him as the go to guy to get things done. I haven’t been to his grave for sometime but I’ve been meaning to go to his and my stepfathers.

I wish I had mentioned my parents and grandparents in the video. I’m glad you brought it up here. You’re grandfather sounds like one of the ‘greatest generation’. It is true. People back then were a lot more self reliant and your grandfather sounds like a prime example of that.

Thanks very much for your input.
