1. I had to go with the "WTF?" option, Ptah.

I have no idea what that is.

2. My grandfather homesteaded in 1911.

His homestead did not have potable water so he hauled spring water
about a mile from Aldrich Spring to his home.
He used a team of horses to pull a sled over the rocky prairie, carrying
barrels of water on the sled he named the 'stone boat'.

4. Aha. Very interesting.

Where was the homestead? And is that photo of your grandfather?

5. The homestead, still in the family is in Montana.

That's not my grandfather.

Here's a photo from 1917, he's on the far right, his bride is next to the woman holding the baby.

My grandmother and JFK were born in 1917.
