Photo 4-MBU-35

Comments

I lived on this farm as a child between early 1955 and early 1964. The metal buildings to the right in this picture were not there back then. The big red barn, house, machine shed and other buildings were in excellent shape. I recall apple trees to the north of the house. The big red barn was gone several years ago when we drove past. . When we left in 1964, there was a fence around the house yard. Back then the long lane came past the house and then turned in. This farm sits about 7 miles east of Lyons. In 1964 yet there was a creek that was part of the pasture to the right. Big cottonwood trees shaded the milk cows. The cottonwood trees are gone and the pasture is cropland now.
