And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
My mother was the cook on a ranch when I was about 6. Looked just like that. I grew up listening to a pressure cooker making beans for 3 meals a day. That ranch sold recently for ten million dollars. It is 46,000 acres.
My garage beer fridge is a 1950 General Electric Refrigerating Machine, passed down from wife's grandparents. Been running now for 76 years without a repair or Freon charge! Bubbarust
That kid in front of the fridge...he has milk AND an FFA (Future Farmers of America) jacket on. Wonder if he just graduated high school or this was one of those "get 'em out of school to help" sort of gatherings?
Looks like a lot of kitchens from my youth. To include the cowboys.

DeleteYup, you did not wear your hat in my south Texas mother’s house!

Thems awful small cups. There is no grandmother around, that’s why they have hats and spurs on.
ReplyDeleteLook behind the kid leaning against the fridge. She's standing in the doorway, smiling.
