BILL SKINNER sent this Yesteryear photo to the Sentinel. It is a picture of him fishing on Chuck Reed’s farm east of Stockton. Skinner noted that Chuck was a good friend of his father and whenever they visited Stockton, they would try to visit the Reeds at their home on the farm. Skinner has many fond memories of those visit including fishing, the cows, the milking barn and watching Mr. Reed run his farm.
