Photo 15-IAS-3

Comments

I'm speechless. This was the farm I grew up on. This is the only picture I've seen that shows the barn, the five maples and the outhouse. The barn burned in 1966 when I was in college. I left the farm when I married in 1968 but I treasure my years growing up there. My children and grandchildren will now have a better idea of what I'm talking about.

It was wonderful to find this picture! This the farm my grandfather built and worked. By the time I was born, the barn had already burned and all we ever saw was the concrete foundation. It was also so neat to see the fields that were used to grow food. So different from overgrown fields we used to play in as kids. Thanks for putting these pictures up!

Would it be possible to order 4x6 prints of this farm? My 12x18 is hanging in our dining room. I would like to give the prints to the great-grandchildren with the story about growing on this farm.
