Hi Gary, 15 below this morning. Dick is always doing things with cars & tractors looks up and see his dad looking at him wondering what now. Kids will do that Dick I remember my dad was going to get the cows for me so he got on my pony star when I came out of the barn and seen him going I don’t know why but I whistled and she piled him in no time flat I laugh but when I seen the look on his face he never said nothing but if looks could kill I would of been a dead duck. I never done it again. Lloyd

Here’s a horse story
The teacher asked Ollie to make up a sentence using the words “defeat”, “defense” and “detail”.
Ollie scratched his head for a minute, then said. “De feet of de horse went over de fence before de tail.”

Mary, This is wonderful. What school would this be and how in the world were you able to identify all these folks? Clarence Salmonson was born in 1904. He looks to be about 6 years old in this picture, so my guess is that this picture was taken in about 1910. That is 101 years ago. I have cropped this photo for enlargement below. Thank you Mary. Gary
