September 13th……..”WHAT WAS OUR GRANDPA’S FIRST CAR? DID HE EVER HAVE AN ACCIDENT WITH IT?”
POEM – “Dad’s First Hot Rod” by N. Elliott Noorlun. Created 6.15.2014
Elliott’s handsome father, Russell, on the “running board” of his 1929 Chevrolet International Sedan. Note how someone hand-tinted the black & white pic with green to give it the aura of color photography.
I may be only one oat seed in a field of millions, yet I have a story to share of beginnings on our beloved farm in southern Minnesota and beyond to life as I've seen it to this point. Famous? No. Gifted? Unlikely. Yet, I want to leave a legacy to my children and grandchildren of who this gentle Norwegian man was. My happy times, sad times, successes and failures. Someday, those who are tiny now, will have this volume to come to and get to know this Norwegian Farmer's Son.
