Old Mr. Jones Once Had A Farm by

Berthoud, Colorado – June 2010
The Jones Farm

209 views as of August 2011

To the north of me, across the irrigation ditches that have eroded away by the waters and the wind, is the old Jones Farm. Jones was 102 years young when he passed away and his wife lived on another year. They homesteaded here many, many years ago.
