A Daughters Love and a Brownie Camera

by | Mar 11, 2022 | Stories


Today’s episode of The Storyteller’s Porch begins with sips of rebels from Dutch Bro’s and a conversation between our host, Jill Davis, and her daughter, Gracie Jenkins.

Gracie and Jill start this episode sharing memories of Gracie’s Gma and Gpa who are also Jill’s mom and dad.

They share thoughts and memories about visiting the farm in Kansas when Gracie was very little and chat about Gracie’s introduction to tornadoes. Although Gracie had never seen a tornado or the destruction a tornado can cause, Jill saw the damage that could be done to the giant irrigation systems.

Listen in as Gracie and Jill share their eulogies for their beloved relatives. You can hear the original Johnny Weismuler call here and watch the Wiggles sing about Pirates here.
