<Least they didn't do the one that meantioned Grant Wood, might have had a border war with them.    Some of us think he copied a bit from the John Curry picture that Butcher took.  NSHS now calls that picture "Nebraska Gothic."   A bit of croppin' on Mr. and Mrs Curry and we'll let ya be the judge.>

[Delmonico]

<If I could be an arteeest, I would have submited one based on the Sylvester Rawdings family.>

[Ornery Orr]

I like this one better than the cow, cheese, and corn one.

I agree, that is a better choice.

<And what about the Iowa quarter, a 1 room schoolhouse?  I think we all have been rooked on this quarter thing.>

Okay, now that was uncalled for!

<If I could be an arteeest>

You are an arteeest!  An arteeest of the iron pot!

<Arthur's note: At one time, alot of small towns in WI had breweries.>

[Ozark Tracker]

From what I've heard around here everybody just had their own.

[Trinity]

<<Yes, the Germanic people do love their beer! >>

Trinity and Ozark Tracker stare at litl trinity in amazement.  "How in tarnation 's he doin' that?" asks Trinity.

[Ozark Tracker]

little deneese comes toddling in picks up all the quarters while the men are talking, carrys them to Daddy and gives them to him.

toddles off

[Ornery Orr]

Ornery, having seen what just happened to the quarters, shakes his head, smiles and says," Kids, ain't they somethin'?  Lookin' out fer ther elders at such a young age."

[Forty Rod]

Slim, ask me about Wisconsin cheese...I dare you.

[Trinity]

"Who was that thar keeud?  OH!  It were mah other young'n!  Ah plumb fergot 'bout her."




<<Big brother... can I ask you about Wisconsin cheese?>>

[Delmonico]

I won't ask either of you about Wissy-consion cheese.

[Trinity]

<<I've heard of cheaseheads before, but never of cheeseb... nevermind.>>

[Delmonico]

I think there is a lot Slim ain't tellin' us.

[Ornery Orr]

No wonder them fellers from Wisconsin always have a grin on their face.

[Ozark Tracker]
