Are you ready for the 4th of July? The folks in today’s Throwback Thursday photograph certainly are prepared. A man and a large group of young girls ride in a new touring car decked out in American flags and patriotic bunting. They are parked in front of the F.J.

Gone fishing! Three young boys fish the pond at Hanscom Park in Omaha in today’s Throwback Thursday photo. If the string of fish the youngest boy holds, the pint-sized fishermen appear to be quite successful their simple lines and homemade pole. Omaha photographer Nathaniel Dewell captured this sweet scene on June 20, 1928.
