Ohferdumb is a compilation of stories and pictures about growing up in a large family on a farm in northern Minnesota. "Ohferdumb" is a term that our mother affectionately used when one of the seven kids did something dumb, which was not uncommon. Our father died at the young age of 40 from an unexpected heart attack. My mom, at age 36, had to take over the day-to-day running of the farm while raising three girls and four boys. Growing up in a rural community, one had to create their own fun and often there were significant risks involved. These stories and pictures will help the reader get an inside look at what life was like in a small rural farming community in the 50s and 60s.

In a day when farm folks pitched in together to accomplish tasks too big for one person, when strangers shared car rides, and housewives lingered over cups of hot coffee, a small boy named Joe discovered the richness of life on his grandfather's farm. A gentle, adventurous, and proud boy enraptured by farm life, Joe learned at a tender age that he had a way with animals, both domestic and wild. On Grandpa's farm, he became fast friends with a dog, a deer, a rabbit, and even a blue jay. His feathered and furry companions seemed to understand him just as perfectly as he did them. Their many carefree escapades included hunting woodchucks, visiting the barbershop, playing in the schoolyard, riding in the rumble seat of Grandpa's coupe, fishing in the creek, eating spaghetti lunches at the county fair, and much more. A memoir from the heart, this is the spirited tale of a young boy coming of age in a bygone era as he makes lasting memories and enduring friendships exploring field and forest with a bevy of animal buddies.

160 Acres: Growing up on a Minnesota Dairy Farm Discover what life was like growing up on a Minnesota dairy farm. Work hard and play hard alongside the Fisher family during the dairy farming boom years of the 1960s and 1970s; a time when a family could earn a good living off of 160 acres of land and milking thirty dairy cows. It was also a time when farm kids had to work just as hard as adults to keep the farm solvent. Read true stories about those kids milking cows, driving tractors, baling hay, fixing machinery, raising livestock, and butchering pigs. You'll also read about their wild adventures riding livestock, driving a schoolbus, and rebelling against a strict father. This book will give the reader an accurate snapshot of a colorful way of life that has now disappeared across most of the country.
