Back 1/2 of my '48, and Julia Shuckin' Corn

I'd gotten up early to pick sweet corn, and the first one out of the house was Julia, my 5 year old. She came out in her night gown and wanted to start shucking. I thought it'd make a good picture, so I snapped one with my phone.
Turned out pretty cool in B&W, like it could've been taken in the late 1940's.

Great pic, you couldn't have captured that any better. I hope Julia likes jigsaw puzzles. I just couldn't resist. http://savethecub.com/cubpuzzles/cornshuckingpuz.htm

Cool Puzzle!
We checked it out after supper and everybody had a good time, Especially Julia!
Looks like I might be bringing all 4 of the kids down to the CI Cubfest. My wife has a Christian Women's conference in Indy that weekend, and I've got a Cub Express exchange to make there, so I'll probably be wrangling the whole crew.
i'm hoping I can talk my Dad into "Riding Along" (AKA helping keep an eye on the kids)!

Sounds great! You'll have a good time I'm sure. There will be several wives there, mine included, so your wife won't feel left out. Get a room and spend both days with us. I'm sure Gary, Steve and I will have a few stories to tell around the fire both nights.

Bill, we'll probably just make them up as the evening progresses.

Every once in a while I find one that works well as a puzzle. This was one of them.
