The Old Ranch House |
|
These trees were planted shortly after the
house was built in 1925. Jack Peterson, youngest son of John V. and Goldie, was delegated the responsibility of watering them every day using an old coffee can. He apparently did his chores well, as the trees now provide cooling shade during the summer, yet allow the warming sunlight to penetrate the ranch house on cold winter days. Jack was born in the downstairs bedroom of the house, as was his youngest daughter! |
