Siitting in the wheel barrow

The above photograph is of my maternal great grandmother, Verna Andrews Kohl and her father John Edward Andrews. At the time this photograph was taken Verna was working in a haberdashery in Roanoke, Virginia-- where she would meet her husband. Here, she is visiting her father at their family farm in Amherst County, Virginia.

I love the rural setting in this photograph, the mountains can be seen at the left in the distance. (As well as assorted outbuildings, and certainly an outhouse.) Both of Verna's beautiful daughters bore a strong resemblance to this photograph of their mother.

They are seated in a wheelbarrow, just to make the picture more rural and fun!
