The Simple Life


We think of these times before television, computers and other technology as the "simple life." However life during the Dirty Thirties certainly wasn't EASY!! I can't imagine how my grandmother kept her children clean when they had only dirt to play in and their only real bath was just once a week - on Saturday night.
This was the Forward Farm near Hugoton, Kansas.
