Dad and my older brother as a baby - "play time." I wonder who was having more fun!
Dad and I when I was a kid.
Dad and an early push mower.
Dad in our front yard.
Dad fixing something at the head house (TV tower) at the neighboring tiny town.
While fixing said problem at said head house (TV tower was in a pasture), Dad had to deal with a friendly but NOSEY horse who just had to stick his nose in things .....
Dad and I in Colorado.
Dad and I at our hometown's lake.
Earlier years - Dad filling Grandpa W's John Deere during harvest.

Granddad C - two of him, that he took using a double exposure on a glass plate negative. I think one of the characters had a little help from some stuffing! Granddad had a camera and took pictures occasionally. He also had a sense of humor.
Grandpa W with his cattle.
Grandpa W on an early tractor.
Grandpa W shoveling wheat.
Dad and Grandpa W rigging an umbrella on a tractor for shade. (I think Dad was the one who came up with the idea.)
