He was born in a sod house in 1894. His dad had come over from Denmark in 1886 and moved out west a blacksmith by trade. Winters were pretty dull and boring for a 17 year old blacksmith apprentice. So he had taken a train to shuck corn for $1 dollar a day in Lincoln. He saved for several months bought the cycle and made the trip home. If you'll notice it has pedals as most of those in that era did. I think it took him over a month to get home as there was very little fuel and only wagon trails.

I came across it on The HAMB . Just though those underbody pieces were really unique and give it the finishing touch to set it apart from the rest.

Richard,
That's my ship. Well it was in the early 90's. USS Kitty Hawk CV63. Looks like it's getting fuel.
