| Let's see, it's the Lone Star State, so why not use a star! This is Mom's car on "Hotel Rd." Farm is to the left and back of the car. Hotel Rd. below. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The Farm. The windmill, barn, silo, corrals, and most of the pens are now gone. Someone has parked a big stock trailer out front. Some of the trees are gone & new ones have been planted. Didn't look like anyone was living here. Looks kind of lost & lonely, doesn't it? Amazingly, the screen door on the front looks like the original one - hard to believe, but I remember that door! |

| <- I don't know the statistics, but farms are lost every day. This one they just walked away from, leaving it to fall apart. Others that Mom remembered were gone, or rotting away. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Our next stop was the Claude cemetery, my Aunt Kathy is here, along with my Grandpa & my Granny (Mom's Mom, Grace Grumke). We picked up some silk flowers when we were in WalMart in Amarillo to add to the ones Charlie (Mom's brother) had already placed. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
