Nice!

I found it interesting that one of the boys in the blacksmithing pictures has the last name Ferrie, the Ferrie brothers in Scotland are world renowned farriers, I wonder if that little boy knows that?

Nickie, we call it "Scandahoovian" in Wisconsin and Minnesota, probably the Dakotas too. Generic Norwegian-Swedish-Finnish-Icelandic etc. I'm not sure they have many in Texas though.

Good question, I'll have to ask the boy's grandfather next time I see him. Grandpa's last name is "Newgord" which I just looked up. Newgord is a county in the Shetland Islands. The boy's last name must come from his grandpa's SIL...so I'm doubting there's a link. But, who knows?
