Photo 109-PTI-14 from 1983

Comments

I lived on the farm on the right of the seasonal creek and below the road with my grandparents Earl and Alice Bolton from 1980-85 (my mom's family). The largest building on the far right was a 48' chicken coop my grandfather built after WW2 using GI bill money. My personal garden was along the seasonal creek in front of that coop. Across the creek was the Foster vegetable garden. Just out of the picture to the right is the Tuttle house the road is named for. It was the first house built of bricks from the Candor brickyard. In the center of the photo is the Foster farm (my dad's family), which I believe Stan and Pansy had recently purchased at that time after it had been farmed for decades by the Foster family, but owned by The Kroms. I remember the surveyor's tape running along that creek about the time I started my garden. The celebrated "strawshed" where people came to play basketball is on the far left.
