Oh I remember a wagon like that at the farm, was the best " hide-and -seek" spot when playing kick the can at dusk
was used from 1880 till 1930 when they got a IHC Grain truck

East of Fargo. I had to look to see where Dale Township was.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Dale township is where I first set a trap 45 years ago.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

Worked with that kind of wagon all through the 1950's until we bought a rubber tired one. The high sides were used to "gather" ear corn, by hand. Take the sides off to haul hay and tobacco. Most folks here in the South used mules instead of horses.

Kids back then probably thought it was fun to ride in that wagon. Kids today, not so much.


The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.

That was the starting of global warming ! If you had that picture of history on a bill board they would make you take it down in the name of a whatever cause.

I enjoy the old pictures, keep'em coming.
