This is another snapshot from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.
This one has some info on the back.

Nothing better than a best friend when you are six years old.
Thanks for stopping by. Do come again:)
Hey, here's another cute dog! But this time the grass is nicely cut, and there is even a well-trimmed hedge. And, near the hedge, might that be “Grandpa” wearing a fedora?
ReplyDeleteBehind and to the left of the handsome blond boy [who is wearing a really neat tie] there is what appears to be a croquet stake. I well recall many fun times playing croquet in all the seasons of my life. I should bring down our croquet set from a closet upstairs.
Though, I suppose I need not hurry about that. It would be too challenging to play croquet in a yard with a foot or more of snow on it – and I'm not going to shovel off a large enough portion of our yard! But if my Colonel wants to . . .
If my Charlotta thinks I am going to grab my shovel and clear enough of the yard to play croquet, she has been drinking too much of her pickle juice - again.

ReplyDeleteAnd behind the gentleman in the background is a clothesline. Whatever happened to Iggy?
ReplyDeleteIntense guy?
DeleteHi Maybelline, Iggy has had a bum shoulder and he had surgery on it two weeks ago.. I have not heard from him since before his surgery. I am sending good thoughts his way everyday..:)
DeleteI bet the guy was watching all that was going on not knowing he would be preserved in the photo forever. It is a well taken photo.
