Grandpa and the RAT - A Slightly Wiser Story
Manage episode 434186571 series 3293377
In 1991, Grandpa, Don, was a development engineer by day and homeschooling and homesteading Dad at night. Some persistent and relatively large creature was eating the animal feed intended for the ducks and rabbits.
As the battle with the creature continued, Don came to realize that it was a RAT that he was dealing with. A very big and very smart RAT. Don outsmarted that RAT, or so he thought he had, by storing the grain in the family car.
The mystery developed as Don would keep seeing the RAT, on, or running to, the side porch of the house to greet him as he came home from work. It was as though the RAT expected to be fed by Don. Eventually Don does figure out the schemes of the RAT.
When Don figures it out he needs to apologize to his children. The RAT was just trying to survive and really wasn’t that smart. Grandpa was trying to get the RAT and really wasn’t that smart either.
Grandpa encourages parents and grandparents to tell their stories to their children and grandchildren.
