Gertie and Dutch

My Aunt Gertie sent me a letter telling a story of life on the farm.  She would ride a horse down to the pasture and collect the cows returning them back to the barn.  One day a neighbors bull got out and chased her home.  After getting home safe the horse stopped so quickly it sent Aunt Gertie into the watering tub.
Here is the scene as she races home yelling for "Daddy"...great stories from the farm.

    The picture of Gertie in the tub made me laugh out loud! Great looks between her and the horse.
