We have 5 children, 11 Grandchildren, and 3 Great grandchildren. I now live in a small community called Kenny Lake, Ak. My Children have grown up and moved away but they often remind me that all the bedtime stories I made up should be written down. So I decided to write this book about my Grandfather"s farm in Arkansas. He raised hound dogs to sell but had his favorite pets. His watermelon patch was my favorite place to go and check them often. We have enjoyed raising our family here in the Alaska Bush where there was plenty room to roam. My favorite winter outdoor hobby was snowmachining. In the summers I loved to hike our favorite trails with my family.view less
