old clock

Here is a picture of a clock my grandparents gave me. It was made in the late 1800s, and I really love it. It's been in my family since it was made. My grandfather loved clocks, and he did some work on this one. My grandparents also had a cuckoo clock with pine cones on chains -- you pulled on these to keep the clock going.

The clock above is definitely one of my favorite possessions. It would be the first thing I would grab (after my animals!) if there was a fire. I'm glad I was able to take a nice picture of it.
