Quite a story. Began back before all of us were born.
Back then the farmers made up cedar perch fences around the pastures and when the cattle were put up in the barn for the winter the farmer would take the perches down so as to protect them from the storms, ice and snow and all other winter conditions. In the spring he would set them up again and then let the cattle out.

You always have been an early riser, but that's ok. Good history lesson and nice series to start off. I was expecting to put together one for next week that was a little more involved, but I'll cut it short for this one.
Our granddaughter has turned out to be a pretty good young athlete. She had participated in swimming, soccer, basketball and volleyball, and was very good at each for the age groups she participated in. As a freshman in high school she has decided to focus her skills on volleyball and went out for trials to make one of the teams. They have two Freshman teams, two Junior Varsity teams, and a Varsity team. As they all went through the drills the coaches used to evaluate their talents they coded each to select the team members. Coach shared the coded sheet with our daughter (“MS”, “OH”, and “WCS”) but there was one code she couldn’t figure out. Have to admit I'm using someone else's photos, but they tell the story I was working on.
figure "MS" meant middle setter.

"OH" probably meant outside hitter.

Had to ask about "WCS"...and got told, "Whatever Coach Says"!

but the obvious story told to viewers may not be the reason the photographer took the photos. For example, I have a photo I took in Spring 1964 showing President LBJ standing in a crowd. The photo is kind of like "Where Is Waldo?". You may find LBJ and {correctly} guess that is why the crowd is gathered together - but not know anything about the circumstances behind the photo, which are the true story.But, but, but... every picture tells a story! Some not so obvious, some not so deep... but they all do.

Wish this barn could tell us it's story!
It was on the property that my son bought in New York....Packed with all kinds of stuff...They had rigged it with heavy duty wire to keep it from falling down..We were worried that the kids could get hurt by it
So unstable...so we pulled it down,,,,Wish it could have told us it's history! We know that a horse lived there-that's about it!
