Brennon and Schwarts family photos North of Brandon MN on Hwy 16

 These photos were taken from an album belonging to members of the Brennon and Schwartz family. Some of them lived on Hwy 16 North of Brandon.  The pictures were not labeled but we felt they were very cool. 

Notice the chickens in front of the hay rack.
