Childhood Images 1947-1948 - 3rd Grade
I guess this is where my writing career began. Don’t know when or where it showed up, but it is obviously a story I wrote:
“Bill And The Cows
One day Bill’s father said to Bill “Will you go look after the cows?” Bill said that he would. He went and got his bike and a book. He rode to the top of a hill. He started to read in about 10 minutes he looked to see where the cows were. He fond (sic) that they had gone on down the hill. He hurried and put them in the lot. THE END”
Jesse Shirbroun was the teacher at Willow #3 in my 2nd and 3rd Grade, I believe. This photo appears to be in the Fall of 1947 on an occasion where brother Jimmie was visiting. Here is the teacher and her car, alone:
See you down the road… ;-)

Love seeing pictures of you and Whitey❤️
I love that you got lost in your reading and almost forgot the cows!
Thank you, Allison... I was sure you would like that! ;-)
Yes, Annette, I found that very interesting at that age. I'm learning a lot about my childhood from this exercise. What fun!! ;-)
Back in the day, when teachers made home visits... Poor Whitey may have been hit by a car and your parents didn't want to tell you about it.
Yes, Virginia, I've always suspected that. We'll never know, of course, as with so many things, large and small. Thank you for your comment!! ;-)
I like to keep my comments even, so I don't miss one. This will do it, I believe... ;-)
