Gift for Grandpa
Wednesday, January 12, 2011 By: LoveMyCuckoo
My grandfather is a difficult man to shop for. Though he has many hobbies, he doesn’t wait for birthdays or holidays to receive gifts related to his pursuits; he just goes out and purchases what strikes his fancy. I can’t say that I blame him. After all, he worked hard the majority of his life and deserves to enjoy his retirement.
This year I staged a real gift giving coup. One of my grandfather’s hobbies is building and repairing clocks. I bought him two Made in Germany cuckoo clocks: one that needed restoring and the other in good working order. He was absolutely delighted with the gift. The working one will be the clock he studies in order to puzzle out how to restore the other.
