Lucy Onley let me copy some of her pictures over a year ago, she was in a nursing home the last time that I seen her.Her mother and my mother were the best of friends. Mrs Onley was half Cherokee Indian, her Grandfather did the Trail Of Tears I guess.  Oklahoma, before they moved to Idaho. by Tobacco Road, on Flickr |

Great to see these saved for all to view a slice of earlier times. From these photos Ron, it looks like the Only's were a nice bunch to hang out with.

Things seem to be a little slow here so bare with me,I'll give it a boost. BTW- They wern't dressed up for the picture, it was thier everyday clothes, looks as though Jane just got back from town,Lucy must have stayed home and done chores. , the bib overalls tell that? {ladies never went to town wearing bibs}  |

I see the dog is guarding the Bed Heart. These are great photos of the way it was when you were younger, Ronald. It was a hard life, but people could still smile.

We did not know it was a hard life. It was just life.
