Old pictures

  Here you go Pixie. Been awhile since I put any horse pictures on here so here you go. this is my Dad on his Indian pony, Silver. Dad would have been about 10. So this picture would have been taken about 1924.     This  is one on Walter and Lizzy, my Dad’s parents who homesteaded this ranch. This would have been taken in the 1940’s. Notice Dad is holding a rifle and Grampa has a rifle in his saddle scabbard. This is a Winchester 25-20. When Grampa shot at something with this rifle or with his Winchester pump 12 gauge shotgun, he didn’t miss! At least that’s what Dad always said. Of course there was always one or the other close to his hand and he used them a lot. Practice makes perfect. Pretty good lookin’ horses. Sure got some bone to them! I wish I knew what happened to Grampa’s saddle.

  1. Thanks Uncle Bob! Judging from that picture~~not much as changed over the years there. Something very comforting in that!
