Where's Grandma? (contributed by Theresa DeLong)

Wheeeere's Grandma???

I had a weekend off and wanted to go for a drive, so I decided to go see Grandma. I went by my cousin Jane's place, and as she didn't have anything going on she said she'd go along for the ride (and the fried chicken that we might find in the frig).

We got to Claflin in the early evening and drove on out to the farm. We pulled up to the farmhouse and went to the back door, but found it locked and no car in sight. I thought she might have gone into town or run an errand so I went looking for the key to the door, but I couldn't find it. By then, Jane and I were getting hungry, so we went into town to get some dinner and beverages, thinking when we were done Grandma would be home.

After an hour (or a little longer) we went back to Grandma's thinking by then she'd be home. Well...to our suprise she still wasn't home, so we went back to town to wait it out a little longer. We went out one last time...and stil no Grandma, so sadly, we called it a night and went home.

When I called her a couple of days later, she told me she'd been out kid sitting and didn't get home until after midnight. And Mom and Dad thought I kept late hours! Well, that was Grandma. Always on the go!
