As a kid, I was pretty intrigued with the animals. I recall that horse was HUGE!
Arnold used the horses as draft animals.
I was pretty interested in tractors too. I must have been pretty dirty by the end of the day.
Arnold must have loved his job.
Right: Me, Mom, Katherine, foster girl, Nancy; cooling off on a hot day.
Below: Don’t know, Alice, Me, Ty, another don’t know. And a bunch of heifers.
Arnold and Astrid took in a lot of foster kids at varying times. A farm is a pretty good place to raise kids.
Raymond was a school teacher in Norway and would take a job on a ship during the summer to make a bit of money and to get a free ride to see his brothers. Left: Walter, Arnold, and Raymond.
Above: Me, Nancy, and Alice. I had to be told the corn was for the cows, not people.
Must be Thanksgiving; that’s a turkey about to be carved.
