Fun at Bean Creek 100 Years Ago

Nearly 100 years ago in 1924 these kids knew how to have fun.  Looks like the place near the county park, where the water circles into a shallow pool that my friend Peggy Verdon showed me in the 60's.  It sure feels good on a hot day.  L to R Robert Distler, Donald Guss, Paul Distler, Robert Guss, Eugene Scott, Eudora Griffith and Alice Guss.  From a scrapbook at Lenawee Historical Society Museum.
Girls:  Margaret Distler, Ellen Rhoads, Alice Guss, Alene Turbitt, Anna Shadbolt and Helen Guss.  Boys not labeled. From the same scrapbook at Lenawee Historical Society Museum.
