Simply... Iowa.

: )

It's mighty chilly, in Iowa... today.

; )

oh my.

I've actually hunkered down.

Don't even want to ask our Ford 'Fleet' to turn over.

<3

Used to.

: )

 Remember... Dad heating up Huge Pot's of water...

on the stove, to place under our old Trucks, to heat up their oil pans.

How Many Times... did I watch Dad... slide under our Trucks, with Hot...

Boiling Water.

 'Steam'.

We Hoped, in the Bitter Cold, that 'boiling water' under the oil pan would heat up the oil... enough, that...

the Engine could turn over... a little easier, and not 'Pull'... on the battery so hard, trying to crank.

; )

{It Worked... : )}

Ran across some of my Favorite 'Iowa' Images, today.

<3

Dear Pal, Allen... used to do 'Hauling'.

Folk's paid Allen, to haul away their 'Junk'...

often, after... someone Passed Away.

Allen, would call me... before he took things to 'The Dump'.

<3

: )

Below...

are images from a Photo Album, that... if not for Allen, 

would've been Long Lost.

'Iowa'

<3

Somewhere near What Cheer, Iowa.

<3

So Wish... I could meet 'The Photographer'.

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 

So Grateful... to Allen Clinton.

<3

; )

Indeed.

Love to Ya...

Prayers for All.

Barb C.

Grateful...

throughout my life,

 to

 Those...

who, are as

Crazy...

as me.
