52. Robert Skoglund: The humble Farmer. -- My wife asked me why I always dressed so shabby. I said that clothes don't amount to nothing. It's the body underneath that counts. And she said, "Don't make it any worse than it already is."


Thank you for looking at the pictures.

And thank you for your kindness to me in Machias

"I went to a one room school."

"The teacher always taught the lesson the the slowest one in the room."

"When we were 15, every Friday night we'd go to a dance at the St. George Grange."

"It was right next to the school."


"When I was young and single --- between the ages of 34 and 48 --- my old fourth cousin Gramp Wiley lived on my south line."



Gramp Wiley June 18, 1903 ---- August 28, 1984
