Because of my recent slip up - sending an email to everyone - saying January birthdays were posted when they were really June - I had many critics emailing me - letting me know my mistake. One reply was this:
"you can forward this to those who know the difference between June and January"
AT 5 MINUTES AND 6 SECONDS AFTER 4 A.M., ON THE 8TH OF JULY, THIS YEAR, THE TIME AND DATE WILL BE: 04:05:06 07-08-09
Just thought everyone should know this trivia.....now enjoy the memories of Grandpa Willie Walter Phillip
1900's pictures
These are pictures I found among Mom & Dad's pictures. I had hoped to be in Alliance sometime this summer and check with Jean, Bob, & Leo about the pictures but that hasn't worked so far. If anyone knows anything about the pictures, please email me or attach a comment to this post. Thanks. What I have typed beside the picture is what was noted on the back.

Sharon, Isn't it nice to have so many reading and paying attention to the details? Thank you for your time and effort getting this all put together. Judi P
ReplyDeleteI showed Jean your old Phillip pictures. The one with the "glob" in the air is stacking hay. The one with Willie and the cow was taken on the Donovan farm. They were going to butcher this cow. During the process, something fell on Willie's head and Jean patched him up as best he could. Judy M.
