Lois Peterson, Honsey Memory

It has been many years,  I would say this picture was taken in 1953?

Our family and the Leonard Honsey family use to get together on our farm in the Turtle Mountains and at their place in Dunseith, ND.

Leonard would park the big Caterpillar D-8 dozer in our farm yard when he would have to open the roads in the winter time.

I remember him having to come from town in his 1951 Ford with the family and having to drive like a wild man to bust drifts,

just to get into our farm where he parked the dozer.

I remember as kids, them and us playing in the tunnels built in the snow banks around the new construction

for the south addition of the Dunseith School.  The addition was for grades 6 thru High School. That part of the school

is just used for the lower grades now.

They would come up to the farm and we kids would get into trouble for

flattening and packing down the hay stacks and throwing eggs.

The last time I can remember us visiting with the Honsey

kids was in the late 50’s when they were living in Willow City, ND.

Where are they now?

This is a nice picture of their family. I remember the kids when they were older,

maybe about twice the age they are shown on the picture.

I hope you enjoy the picture.

It is from my moms album.
