Fishing near Chambers, 1952
It is such fun to see the
portraits from the past! I went
to my archives and found this
photo. These are my parents,
Jeanne and Lyle Clemens,
when they were newly
married. They are displaying
their catch of crappies in front
of their home in Chambers,
Nebraska, probably around
1952.
