For Val's Challenge 'ONE WORD CHALLENGE - MEMORIES'. My phot, I am the smallest one in the 4-H group. I wanted so badly to join the 4-H Club -but needed a calf - I was so angry when dad finally agreed & just gave me a sickly white one - every other kid had a Hereford & we had lots of those!! But times were poor - no one ever thought my calf would flourish - but I got mighty a a** paddling 4 sneaking wheat to feed her. Well at least I won 3rd & gained a spot in the Provincials. Thks Dad :-)

My own photo, late '50. Rest of images, including the white calf are from Pinterest to make my backgrounds. All done in Photofiltre, masking, blending, borders, word art (my own words).
