    This is a picture taken in 1937. My grandfather is the one holding the lines and his brother Dale is manning the pitchfork. The horse’s name is Daisy (Clydesdale) don’t know how old she was at the time. My grandfather was 6 and Dale was 5. Hope you enjoy.

    Neat old picture. Looks like it was barn cleaning day, maybe.

    Yep, they were cleaning stalls. No need for a manure spreader when you had two strapping young lads to man the pitchfork! I’m working on sorting through more of their old photos and scanning them onto the computer so they can be preserved. If I come across any more good ones I’ll be sure to share them.

    Thanks TBigLug! I would like to see more old photographs if possible. Maybe others can contribute. I’ll try to round some up.
