    One summer day in the late 70s my mother and I were taking a walk on the family farm with my children. My mother snapped this photo of the kids. I don’t know how she got them to pose so nicely! An artist, she later created an oil painting by copying from the photograph. It’s about 20" x 16" and is displayed by the photo in my den.
