I been on here a long time, and have shared many stories, photos and memories with everyone over the 25 plus years on here.

Recently I have been scanning Grandpas old farm pictures, and enjoying every minute of it. I also have been recording his stories and hope to have a few videos to share in a few months. It's been a busy season lately.

In the meantime, enjoy these photos. If you like them, I might add more.

Thanks for allowing me to share these memories with you from grandpas Farm Life, I hope it brings a smile to your face!

Thanks for sharing. Love looking at the old pics. Ground drive corn shocker, and I assume grandma and young un to scatter the corn to fill the wagon. It was better than horses!

Don... most cameras take photos about 4000 x 3000 pixels... This site will not AUTO SIZE for you... Shrink them to 25% ... prior to upload or after if the site will accept it... good size is 800  x  600 or so..........smaller size also allows you to STORE more photos....  NICE PICTURE !!

Like them all, but love the "B"s.

I agree with Sugarmaker, NOBODY took enough pics eons ago, just because it cost so much to develop the film.

Those are great pics Don!  Nostalgia and memories, good memories.
Thanks for sharing.
