Anne, Bill and Margaret with their Atwood grandparents

I am pretty sure these photos were taken by my mother, Ann Atwood.  I am positive that the one below was made in the Atwoods' front yard in Mineral Wells.

And the ones on the right were made at Lake Comanche, when all 3 kids went with their grandparents on a camping and fishing trip.

My friend Joe Waring

This is my friend Joe Waring.  He was Hayne's cousin who grew up on Windy Hill Farm in Comanche, and lived there all of his life except when he was in the military in WWII.  

Joe became the town hero.  He was a fireman, an EMT, and a Civil Defense warden.  He would never refuse to take me (and./or my friends) on an outing in Comanche County. The first picture was made on a boat on Comanche Lake.  He once took me up in his private little plane to look at Comanche County from the air.  

One day at Windy Hill farm around 1976 we found a nest of baby rabbits..  The young man in the photo above is Rick Waring, Joe's nephew who was living on a nearby farm.
