My Grandpa Terry
by Carl Rees

This story is about my grandpa Terry. My grandpa 
Terry Rees is my mom's dad. He is 53 years old 
and lives in British Columbia.This is me with my
Grandpa Terry. 

My grandpa works as a landscaper because the mine 
thing my grandpa did when he was little was he 
picked up a snake and chased his mom saying  
"stick".  The funniest thing he remembers about 
school is when his brother tried to jump out the
third floor window so he did not get the strap. 

My grandpa's favorite subject 
 was science and his worst 
chore was doing the dishes. 
For fun he played cowboys and
Indians with pellet guns.They
also built soapbox cars out 
of apple crates and put wheels
on them. Then, raced them down
hills. My grandpa's saddest
experience was when his dad
died.

One thing he would do 
differently would be getting 
more education. It makes my 
grandpa angry that criminals 
don't get punished enough.  
Camping and fishing gives him
joy. The advice he gave me 
was to get lots of education.
