Grandpa's House

My walk yesterday took me past the house that my grandfather built. It is a 3 story brick home, and there used to be a road along the water right in front. The road is still there in front of the house, but most has washed out elsewhere along the shore. When grandpa built the house, there was no deck in front, nor garage. Nor did I ever see my grandmother clad in a bikini like the woman standing in the open garage door.
