I found an old Polaroid in one of the photo albums. It is dated January 1988.
This was taken in Far Guy’s parents back yard. The snow banks are as high as the clothesline. Our daughters when they were little loved to play on the huge snow banks. They would run outside as we were getting ready to leave to play in the snow. They would get snow in their boots and then complain they were freezing cold.
Far Guy’s Dad took this photo because it is a Polaroid and his Mom labeled it with the month and the year. They used to hire a local fellow to come in and push the snow around in their yard.
That clothesline was a hub of activity…it was there that Far Guy’s Mom put the harness on him and let him play outside when he was little…until he learned to unhook himself and go play at the neighbors… it was also where Muggy (a Chihuahua) got chained out, if you chain a dog to the clothes line they can run the length of it and bark!
