And To Think I Used To Wonder Where I Got It From - Tumblr Posts

I find myself missing my grandfather today.

Here is a fun fact about him: he had a cannon in his front yard. He told everyone it was a decoration, but my father confided in me that when packed when the right mixture, it would, in fact, fire.

Whenever one of my grandfather's neighbors annoyed him, he would rotate the cannon to point at their house.

When we were going through his house a couple of months ago, we found several smaller cannons. One is now in my living room.
