Sunshine on the Front Porch

Pleasant and Lilly Hendricks (my grandparents) and me made late in 1921.

Grandma and Grandpa Hendricks was taken in Ft.Smith about 1925.

I'm visiting Ft. Smith about 1927. Notice the Model-T parked in front of Grandpa Hendricks' grocery store and how gas meters never seem to change.

Here Clifford is 21 years of age. His Model-T is an early version of a pick up truck ... it has a small bed.

Would like to add a word here about my grandparents.

Nathan Benjamin Forrester was a Baptist preacher and pastored several churches in Sebastian county. Among them were Amity, Hackett, and Huntington. He traveled by horseback or buggy.

I always knew Grandpa Hendricks by the first name of Pleas, but I find out just recently that his name was Pleasant. I also found out that while Grandpa Forrester was the pastor at Amity Church, Grandpa Hendricks was the church clerk.
