October 2018 - Wildflowers by Anna Nygren

Shared some interesting notes from Anna Nygren.  Anna was born in the Caledonia (the last child born there) in 1907.  She liked to write and a few of her childhood memories are in files of the Wally Ohles Research Library at the Caledonia.  I'm trying to get some of them typed up as most are written in pencil but with beautiful penmanship...something that was treasured in those days. This piece was written probably around 1917 when she would have been about 10.  It gives you a idea of life back then and the beauty they found in their lives.  Enjoy!
