Gram's 2 Cents

[The following was dictated to me by Gram:]

I didn't realize Brandon had any Norwegian traits, but when we landed at Clanton, Alabama, I found out differently.

We were in our coach and we were going to fix a meal for everyone who came to see the Born Frees. Brandon was standing beside me when I had just opened a great big pan of beans [Gram briefly leaves RV to double check how heavy the bean can was] - 7lbs 5oz! So I started to lift it and it was too heavy and I said "Brandon, can you pour it in?"

And this is what he said, "Do you want me to set the can in the electric fry pan?"

[Gram laughs and then composes herself.]

And I responded and said, "Brandon! We have to pour it in the electric skillet!"

[More laughing at my expense.]

So that's my first story.

Simon: That stupid car ... We would've been doing them a favor if we had lit it on fire!
