To continue the story written in the first portion of this group of photos……. The Flying Jennie horse ride was now owned by the Siebrands and they would set it up from time to time when there was a home town celebration, and they would give free rides. One of the Sieband sons got the idea that if you took the Jennie to another town they might pay to ride the flying horses. It became so popular they created a small summer route.Then the brothers sold the Jennie and bought this merry go round that is in this photo. More people ….more money,  there was no stopping them now.
