good read there sir ....and yes it reminds of back when as well

Thanks for the post, Bernard. Sounds like your grandma was an awesome woman.

Excellent article.

Awesome

Good read, brought me back to days with my gram fishing for perch up in Wisconsin. When she past the grand children got to pick anything from her house they wanted, I went straight out to the garage and got her poles and tackle box, every now and then I open the box to look and touch the lures, bobbers, hooks wrapped with aluminum foil and my mind goes back to those days, great memories. I often wounder what she would think long lining 8 poles with the longest being 14 foot, she would probably think I was crazy till we started pulling them in, then it would be game on!

Thanks for sharing those memories

good times

Wow! Good times for sure. Thanks for sharing the post and picture.

Good read with lots of good memories.

I love this story! A close family dynamic is almost unheard of these days and its so sad! When most folks from my generation look back to those times they think "Look how poor those people were." I say "Look how happy the people were and the memories they have!" You guys didn't have near the technology and stuff like is available today and I guarentee for the most part EVERYONE back then is alot more happy than people today. All the hard work that used to be required just to eat taught respect for each other and respect for nature. And then when you guys did get a "Pepsi" oh what a treat it was! Now a days.....A Pepsi is EXPECTED. If someone were to tell my sister she had to drink water and nothing else for the day the sky would fall. This story brings a tear to my eye because I would love to have my family as close as you guys sound! I know you mentioned u were poor above but oh how rich yaw were in reality! AWESOME STORY!

Great story, thank you for sharing.
