To Grandmothers House We Go


  Enter your response   A Mega-Prompt   Read published entries

A visit to grandmothers house is always a special experience: even if it's not "Over the River and Through the Woods", even if you don't have the snow, and even when you'll be riding in a 6 passenger Chevrolet rather than a 2 horse open sleigh.

For Me,

...thinking about visits to grandma's house for the holidays bring back a whole lot of fun memories. It really was a drive over the mountain and through the woods with a whole lot of snow along the way. I swear you could smell the hot dogs cooking miles from her house. I remember Grandma's old fashioned tree decorations, and the really cool, mechanized toys she had that were always fun to play with... Coach Hart

Tell about your grandma's house, or that of another special friend's, during the holidays. Use each of your 5 senses in a descriptive essay that will make our readers feel like they're along for the ride.
