I grew up as part of a large family. We were all very close and on Sundays we would all meet at my grandparents house. It was a traditional home with wonderful wooden furniture. There were many stately pieces of furniture. But the Grandfather Clock they strategically placed in the corner of the Family room was the most impressive.
We used to sit in the family room and discuss world affairs, political events an all of the key issues of the day especially those that impacted our daily lives. It was very pleasant to be in the family room and listen to the melodic chimes flowing through the house.
My Grandparents house played a key role in my growing up. Every major event of my young life happened in their home. I remember celebrating my birthdays, religious events, school graduations and sports victories. And through it all the Grandfather Clock was there. It chimed accurately and melodically. It was as much a part of my family as the rest of us.
Recently, I found myself in a specialty Clock store and started reminiscing about my childhood days. While browsing through the store I saw many different shapes and sizes of Grandfather Clocks. I saw some very expensive models that were Traditional Grandfather Clocks with elaborate cable movements. I also saw that there were several inexpensive models that featured key wound Grandfather Clocks. These discount clocks are very affordable. They are not as heavy or as intricately designed as some of the more expensive models, yet they still look stately and chime faithfully.
The more popular grandfather clock finishes are cherry and oak. Some clocks have very elaborate chimes while other chime religiously at the hour and half hour mark.
My Grandparents Grandfather Clock was handed down to my parents as a family heirloom. I plan to purchase one that I can pass down to my family. I hope that I will be able to create the same memories with my family, that I had with my grandparents. - 16492
