TALE#2
GRANDPARENTS DAY

WESTBROOK SCHOOL
Here is a twist on the "HUNT" that probably
has never been done before. It just shows us that
someone is always thinking. This is very
cute ...... many of us don't qualify for this yet, but-
keep it in mind for the future.
GLENVIEW IL, APRIL29, 2005
Herb Weinfield's grandson, Robert Rose, invit-
ed Herb to attend Grandparents Day with him. The
invitation asked grandparents to bring items from
their childhood or young adulthood, to show the
children how life and times have changed over the
years.
Herb explains .... "Well, I showed up with my
MILLS FIREBIRD QT SLOT MACHINE and a
bunch of nickels. Not only did I want to make my
grandson proud, but I thought maybe some of the
other grandparents might have a machine hidden
away.
The kids had a BLAST. I let them keep their
winnings even though they played with my coins.
One of the men in attendance said he had a
BUCKLEY machine. Nothing yet, but I'm work-
ing on it!!!".
In the photo, Herb is shown with his grandson Robert,
who is wearing a white sweater with a stripe.
