Years ago my father purchased two mission bells somewhere in the Southwest. He mounted them on a wooden frame and when it was meal time my mother or one of us children would ring the bells to call the others home. It was so much nicer than standing at the back door and hollering. Today the bells reside on the Russell Ranch in Limestone, Montana. Herb Russell has mounted the smaller of the two on the back gate where it can be used to call the hands to meals.
Bill and I and my sister, Sandy, spent several days basking in the warmth and love of the Russell family. Here is Herb Russell, right, and his son, Mike.
In this photo we are heading out and saying good-bye to Susie Russell next to me, her daughter Kate, then Herb, and Sandy on the far right.
