This is about. the Howe family
In 1939, Carolyn Howe got married. One of her wedding presents was a 16mm movie camera.
She took pictures of life around her in Falls Village, Connecticut. And, of course, her babies.
This baby grew up to become Pete Howe who you can see in Pine Plains Views. He and his brother, Jim, found some old movies in a shoe box, projected them on a wall and videoed them with a home VHS camcorder. All I did was some basic editing and set them to music. Carolyn and her sons had done the rest.
There is no telling where her talents could have taken her. Hollywood? But her creative abilities took her in a different direction. She stayed on the farm.
And lucky us, she documented life on that farm!
And then came steel….
Your comments are more than welcome — they are invited! For example, does anyone know what that first tractor was, before the 8 N?
