In Days of Yore

When I returned from North Dakota two years ago, I brought back a number of photos that the lovely wife’s mother had. They date from fifty or more years ago. I’ll be posting them to preserve them, and to point out how far we’ve come.

The shoe shop was operated by the lovely wife’s great grandfather, grandfather and father. She has warm memories of playing in the shop while her father worked.
