yes I remember going for rides around the orchard on that old Rickety looking tractor. The farmhouse, the turkeys I heard about and the ceramics classes continued well into the '80 s.My great grandmother ( Goldie) passed away in1993( God bless that tough little woman. And "puppa" passed years prior at a condo in Novi. I have some Midwest items but am looking now to build a sort of family tribute to both of these fine people as their contributions not be forgotten by my famy in the future.. Thanks for the memory
