This is what Adolph wrote and it always makes me laugh. Carl was Adolph's younger brother. If Carl was age six, Adolph would have been eight years old...
"I don't remember anything about the trip until we reached Market Lake, now Roberts. We had to get flour, sugar, potatoes, etc., as it would be a long trip with team and wagon for more groceries. They laid about four sacks of flour on a platform for us to pick up and Carl, then 6+, asked me to roll a sack of flour on his shoulder so he could take it to the wagon. I rolled it off and flattened him in the mud."
Ha ha! Cute story :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is a really cute story! Must have been some heavy flour! Thanks for sharing. I love hearing about my heritage. I love you Grandma!
