Okay, I'll admit that these first two pictures weren't on the farm. But every hard-working farming family needs a day off occasionally. These photos were taken in Belcourt on St. Ann's Day 1955 or 1956. Ed & Loretta are pictured with Dad's Uncle Isadore Gauthier. He was married to Antoinette Roberge, daughter of Esdras (who was the brother of Grandma Marie Anne.) Isadore & Antoinette lived in Willow City at the time. Isadore was a barber there. Us four little kids were all dressed up for the event. I'm the one standing behind St. Francis. Did you notice us ladies all wearing hats? |

Above & Below: A HOT DAY Dad is sitting on a milking stool and manning the hose to give us kids a cooling-off. It was very refreshing. Even Mom and Dad got in on the action. |
