Friday Family Story... Hummels
My Grandpa and Grandma Fowler lived on a farm south of Lethbridge, in southern Alberta, Canada. I can remember going to visit them. There were lots of black cows, and quonset huts for the chickens. Best of all I remember visiting with grandma in the den of their home. That was where the t.v. was, but also there were shelves of National Geographic magazines (a most unique find). However, in the formal living room, where we children only occasionally dared to venture were two tempting treats. The first, an arrangement of fifteen Hummel ornaments, on several low tables placed between the various couches and chairs. I loved to stare at the various children in their lovable poses. the other excitement in that room was a cut glass crystal candy dish that held "Licorice All-sorts"---a yummy, yummy treat.
