This picture was taken nearly 40 years ago during the fall of 1980 after our moving back to Nebraska during that summer. We were roughing it out at the farm. Bill Hartmann had dug us a hole out in the corral that we used as a dump. That is where I was headed with the garbage barrel loaded on the carrier with other "junk". Don had bought the Ford tractor for us at one of his auctions and delivered it to us. Mother and Dad spent a lot of time out at the farm watering the newly seeded grass, trimming trees and Dad even did some field work. Carolyn and Julie went over near Staplehurst and got "Bo" for us. We probably didn't appreciate all the help we had in making the transition back to Nebraska and the farm. Elaine and I were both working full-time in Lincoln and didn't have time to realize what all we had undertaken. Our transition up here to Brookdale has been rather mild in comparison to our moving to the farm. Fortunately, once Carolyn and Julie moved in with us and we bought the first street house, did things begin to level out.
