Photo 8-GAU-31

Comments

I knew the family that lived there and still own the property. We used to live a mile south of there and I would love to find a picture of that place.

I grew up there! Best childhood ever!
I had 5 brothers and 2 sisters. 2 of the boys are gone now.

Hi Sheryl, thank you for sharing your memory! Can you tell me more about what made it the best? Growing up with 7 siblings must have been quite an adventure! Do you remember anything specific from the year the photo was taken, 1979? It's amazing to think about all the changes that have happened since then. -Alexis

While growing up on the farm with my siblings, I always had someone to play with, even if someone else was mad. We had our own baseball team.
We rode ponies, cows and (tried) pigs. We climbed trees, had wars, made a tree house, played in the barn, the corn crib and the hog house.
We had cats, dogs, cows chickens,ducks, geese, hogs and each other.
