I haven't seen these photos since I was around 10, my brother used his phone to take photos and sent them to me. 1st one is my grandmother, we think it was in the late 30's, when they lived in Northern California. Grandfather hunted whenever they needed meat, but they also liked having deer around. My grandmother told me when I was about 10, about how the deer would let her feed them in the back yard.  Next one is my grandfather (a horse trainer/ cowboy when he was young) on one of his favorite horses "Chester". Chester was hit and killed by a drunk driver after they moved to Southern California, while one of my uncles was riding him on a dirt road . This photo was in the early 50's. Sure miss them both.

Wow! Those are great photos. What memories! Looks like you come from good stock.

Thanks folks, I only wish they could have taken more. I'm sure every family has "unknown", or lost photos, kind of surreal.

Great pics to have. I have a similar picture of my Grandfather, oddly enough his horse was named Chester also.

very cool photos, my grandmother used to hand feed a wild squirrel when we were kids. The squirrel allowed my sisters and I to feed her as well. This went on for several years until she had babies and then kept her distance. I suppose a natural protective instinct??
Either way, thank you for helping me remember some good ol' memories.
