They spent the first twenty years of their marriage near Idalia, then lived in or near Vernon for six years before moving to Kit Carson in 1942.

At first they used horse drawn machinery, next and briefly the second-hand Hart Parr tractor with iron wheels and lugs, and eventually tractors with inflated tires. Much of the food was home grown as they planted potato patches, vegetable gardens, milked cows, and raised and butchered their own chickens, pork, and beef. Vegetables were dried or canned and meat was cured or canned for use throughout the year as there was no electricity or refrigeration. wheat was exchanged at the local flour mill in Idalia for flour. Excess eggs and cream, were taken to the general store and traded for additional groceries, oil for kerosene lamps, chicken feed, overalls, shoes, dress material, or whatever was needed at the time. The children rode horseback to school most of the time. The older ones attended Newton grade school and Eunice and Dorothy graduated from Idalia High /school, attended college in Greeley, and taught school.
