I’m not at all sure what KC4 meant to my dad so I’m not sure why these photos are grouped together. The first is a streamed, the second shows animal husbandry, and the last two are of a valley with dwellings.
Here’s what I think though…
The stream is similar to many mountain streams I recall. As you can see by the debris a lot of water comes down this bed when rain strikes. I recall my dad talking about water barreling out of the mountains down stream beds that sounded like freight trains.
The next slide shows folks taking care of animals. While I saw a lot of water buffalo (carabao), I don’t recall many other large animals, though dogs, chickens, and pigs could be found.
The next two seem to be off more or less the same valley. The last image is a bit out of focus, but I’m including it because it’s part of the set.
I don’t have a real explanation for these shots, though I do recall walking to school each day (yes, I went to school while there along with all the other kids) and the school was on flat land. I learned long division at age five as I recall and had a very hard time when I got back to the U.S.A. because I wasn’t supposed to know it in the grade I entered into…they didn’t know what to do with me.
Slower, cheaper, less useful…
