cody post part 2



This is the view from at Grandma & Grandpa's house outside the door & across the yard.
It's the corral. The horses are gone (very hard for Grandpa) but it's still a great place.


Trent spent the entire time - every possible moment available that he was allowed.
right here
riding Grandpa's tractor (lawn mower.) 
He hooked up the trailer to the back & moved some stuff out of the corral.
He's helpful that way.


Chloe & Brett spent a good part of the morning Friday looking at treasures in the garage. 
This garage is a serious treasure chest.
Chloe found some chaps-


these Relief Society magazines from the 1960's


George's shoes with dates


and Bandos' shoes. 
We really loved & miss George & Bandos.


One of Grandpa's old hats.
And- a fan that his parents had & used when he was a baby & on!
That fan is at least 80 years old & still works- plus it's in perfect condition. 


Grandpa explained to Chloe what a Ne-Hi was


and also showed her some of his old treasures from his Navy days.

 
Holy Moly 
this place is cool.

Wow that fan is awesome, I think Pottery Barn charges $100 for look-alikes!

My parents have that same fan. It belonged to my grandmother. Now it sits in my dad's bathroom and he uses it almost everyday.

Searching through my grandparents stuff was one of my favorite past times. I found some pretty cool stuff. Great photos to remember it all.
