Hi! This is one of my favorite pictures so posted this first. It is really poor quality, I hope you can make out some of it. I don't know for positive but I believe that this is Grandma and Grandpa Hagen's first homestead. I know Dad has told stories of how the kids would have to go outside to go to bed as the door to the attic was outside. You can see the doorway at the top of the house in this picture. I believe it must be Grandma and Grandpa on the left corner (looking at the picture). Notice that the men on the horses are almost using them as chairs to visit. The one man is toting a rifle. You can hardly tell, but I think Grandpa is holding a dog and there is another by Grandma. Talk about tough Norwegians!

Nice old picture. Thanks for posting it. I didn't see the dog sitting in Grandpa's lap at first - I thought you meant the other dog.
It comes through so dark on my screen I cannot see too much so am taking it into photoshop to lighten it some and see...do you think I should post the new version or is it just my computer?
