Christmas Card from Uncle Floyd - 2010





 

Floyd Ganzer @ 4-years old (1937) chained to Milk Holders

My Grandma Linda caught my Uncle Floyd trying to flee the premises, dressed like an Eastern European immigrant.  So she tied him to a 4-gallon milk drum.

Floyd managed to pull the drum from the back alley to the side of their house, where he was detected and again detained.  This time, Grandma Linda tied him to an apple tree.  And he escaped no more, BUT ... he did grow up big, husky, handsome, muscular (Big Sexxy)!
