Grampa’s Puzzle

Barb goes to knitting on Tuesday nights.  Her friend’s husband made a puzzle out of wood pieces for all the girls at knitting.  It was the same puzzle that Grampa Taylor made and used to show us when we visited him.  You have to make a T shape out of four pieces of wood.  Barb struggled and struggled with the puzzle.  She always likes a challenge and doesn’t give up easily.  Eventually, she gave up and asked me if I knew how to do it.  I looked at it for 5 seconds and then did it correctly first time.  Barb was amazed and took a picture of it with her iPod and sent it to her friend.  Then she took the pieces apart again and tried to repeat what I had done.  She couldn’t do it.  So she asked me to do it again.  This time I couldn’t do it either.  She said it was just luck that I did it correctly the first time.  Fortunately, she had a picture on her iPod to help her do it again.
