My Native Land.

Whitestone wrote on her blog of learning to swim in the Little Sioux River. Our family farm where I grew up was on the banks of the Little Sioux. I can't imagine a better place to grow up. We enjoyed so much entertainment from that river. Fishing , rafting,swimming,digging clams, ice skating. Picking goose berries and wild strawberries along the banks. Playing and camping out in the woods with our dogs and horses. Here's a couple pictures of my childhood paradise.
Looking at them I can almost feel being there again. Sigh...
