down at the home place


the old neighborhood in the spring time is also fun to visit. yesterday, May 7, I went down to Clay County and mowed weeds, briers, and grass on the old home place.

But here are some views of spring time, long, long, ago.

The picture with Me, Charles and Nancy in it was taken near the time of graduation. the hat i have on is a purple one that Ifound somewhere. The armband is for the Natiional Honor Society which i had just recently been inducted into, sothat is another reason why I know it was probably May. The bottom left picture is my Mother at the fence, and the one on the right is Poppy, standing on the front porch.
Yesterday, while I was sweating, working, and getting brier scratched, there was nothing there but weeds, grass, and briers.
But, in my mind, all these images were there, and i could almost see them all again.
THAT'S WHY THEY CALL IT THE OLD HOME PLACE.s
