Summer Fun at the Junior Ranchette

Throughout the summer we spent many days out at Grandpa’s Ranchette where friends and family would gather.  We would spend hours in the pool and have lunch in the pool house or a cookout in the screen in barbeque patio in the back.  Grandpa also got a horse, and we would occasionally ride it but it was a bit to high spirited for most of the kids.

We put styrofoam blocks on the end of the diving board to make it higher. Dad got the block from the chemistry department which were used to ship gallon jugs of acid.
