As kids we saw Uncle Art and Aunt Betty fairly regularly because they were my youngest sister Becky’s godparents. We would go over to their house on Cologne Avenue on Christmas Eve before we went to Grandma and Grandpa Ellis’ 家. They had a small little home that Aunt Betty kept immaculate. Uncle Art had some interesting miniature cars but the neatest thing he had was a train set.
He took Grandpa Ellis and me downstairs one day to show us his train set. It took up a significant portion of his basement. It consisted of a model town and a train that traveled through it. For a twelve year old kid, it was one of the neatest things that I had ever seen.
Uncle Art also had a distinctive way of speaking. He pronounced his words very distinctly. アートおじさんもかなり読んでますt. He also watched documentaries that he would tell us about when we visited on Christmas Eve. Uncle Art’s precise way of doing things sometimes irritated Grandpa Ellis.
Grandpa thought that Uncle Art wasted money with all the additives that he put in his car. Uncle Art’s careful way of pronouncing words could also irritate Grandpa. I never quite understood this aspect of their relationship because Grandpa loved language. Grandpa was always turning phrases in his personal letters. Grandpa must have liked Uncle Art though. Grandpa did not tolerate people he did not like.
