RE: Photography of Charles W. Guildner ~ Lives of Traditions

I like the cowgirls attire

Maybe it will inspire you to dress up as one for Halloween if you participate in it, hehe. The attire is indeed unique. I wonder what it's like wearing all that gear on a hot summer day? Interesting though the term farmer's tan derives from these cowboys, cowgirls, farmers and ranchers who wear all these clothes regardless of the weather. The usually only get tan lines on their neck.

Yes the two girls do look very happy and I get the feeling they love what they do. The photographer has visited them for many years. I seen a photo of them when they were 8 and 10 years old but that photo wasn't shown here (seen on his website).

But I feel sad for the abandoned car.

A lot of these farms have like a junk yard of cars. I've seen farms that have like 10+ or more cars sitting. Maybe since they have the land to store them they keep the cars because they hold some type sentimental value. It doesn't however explain ones that are deserted. A lot of them have old farm equipment that is used as lawn art.
