Work Hard, Play Hard
This unidentified rural family enjoys a moment of fun during a day of hard work stacking hay. Visible behind the family is a horse-drawn stacker and 2 men starting a haystack. Children worked alongside adults, whether in the fields stacking hay or in the kitchen preparing food. As the old saying goes, a family that works hard together, plays hard together. These four giggling girls posed with their father is proof of that.
