How Great Grandpa and Grandma met

We went to Ryan's for dinner last night with Great Grandpa. We were talking about how we met and then Grandpa shared how he and his wife met. During World War II, he was working at the Firestone factory and he got off work at 6 pm and then got on the bus. He had long legs and sat on the long bench in the back. Grandma worked at another factory making machine gun clips and got off work at 7pm and when she got on the bus there were no seats left. She would walk to the back of the bus and Grandpa would move his long legs over to make room for her to sit. It became a daily habit. The rest is history.
