As Irma wrote in "Patchwork," the family often went berry
picking. Here are Billy, Honey, and Irma on one of those
expeditions sometime around 1915...
Billy dutifully playing pack horse and hauling his pesky little sisters... all of them in their sun bonnets
to protect
them from that relentless, summer sun. Ingrid, their mother, sewed most, if not
all, of their clothes. And later taught her daughters to do the same.
