Grandpa Winder and Grandpa Higley



I love these picture's of my grandpa Winder and Higley. My grandpa Winder was the first farmer in the Columbia Basin~Moses Lake to receive irrigation water for his farm. He moved from Idaho to Moses Lake to farm. My grandpa Higley was also a farmer in the Warden/Othello area. He moved from Utah to Warden to farm. They both worked very hard to establish a living in farming and a create a strong foundation for their families.
They are pioneers in farming!
I am grateful for them and their examples.
I miss them both so much! I still feel their presence in my life every day~and for that....
I am thankful!!
