my maternal grandfather's family used to own a wine farm...

so, somehow, i found myself entranced by my mom telling me about how, somewhere in the early 80s, my mom's father's family used to own a family-run wine farm until someone cam along and bought it. i dunno what they saw, maybe it was the chance to work alongside the white man (my family on both sides are people of color, so am i, hehe), maybe it was a family issue, i dunno, but they sold the land to someone and now, they have a few shares, i think?

i'm still confused as to how we didn't keep it. we could've been rich as hell.

but then again, i guess if they didn't sell it, i wouldn't have been here or i wouldn't have been the person i am.

eh, at least i have a street that's named after that side of the family. i still have that last name, too! :D

anyways, that's all from silly ol' me.

thanks for reading, and have a great day/night! <3 /plat
