Ted feeding chipmunk 1957

One of our favorite places to drive to was Crater Lake.  We always had to try to feed a chipmunk.  This picture is of Ted trying to feed the chipmunk at Crater Lake, Oregon around 1957.  You can barely see the blur of the chipmunks tale on the left side.


Sandy, Charlotte and Earlene Whisler 1963

Sidney Montana county fair in 1963.  I can honestly say that this fair changed Charlotte's life forever.  It seemed like the whole county shut down for 3 days and our whole family, and in fact the whole county, showed up with every type of art and craft and vegetables and photography and animals - a scene straight out of Little House on the Prairie.

oops

Sorry, I know I said I would add something everyday.  Underestimated what the commotion of the holidays would to do my concentration abilities. 


I am in the process of reorganizing the format - already - to include labels (categories) for each person.  It will be a bit confusing at first, I think, but it's the only way I can think of that you don't have to keep wading thru the same information over and over.  So if you are looking for someone in particular, check their label and it will eventually hold all the posts and pictures about that person.
