p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · #1105 "Doc" and Sarah - 1959


My wife's grandparents. Doc and Sarah Broschart, MD. ME. circa1959 - Rode to his patients on his horse. Did not take a "visit" fee from the lesser incomed people. Did take fresh vegetables and the like though for "services rendered". Was the Montgomery County Medical Examiner and Fire Dept doc for a long time.

The photo in the kitchen is quite "dated". Curtains, sink and doors underneath, G'mom and cigarette.......ladies underwear
You can read more here: Quite the "colorful" doctor and his wife was also! He had a great sense of humor!

I am getting a "link error" for the Washington Post Obit of his life. Just Google Frank J. Broschart, obit if further info needed. It's colorful.

Members..I hate not having other entries for others to view and vote on. Only one is really not an "assignment" for only 1 entry!
So PLEASE try to enter with a image suitable for the WA-Subject! Makes it more enjoyable for all! I understand that some assignments have members not interested or not having time or opportunities to post an entry but this is FUN...Or it is supposed to be!
There is much latitude in the subject matter posted.
Come on and post!!!!

Thanks!

Honestly I am not thrilled that I am the only participant "sb40"!

I have asked Fred some time ago to only allow a WA vote if there are at least 2 participants. I am sure some one else could have entered an entry of some kind in this weeks WA.

Just feels like a "vacant" win IMHO!

I enjoy the WA/MA because it is fun and requires me to actually think about the assignment and produce an entry. I enjoy other members "take" on the theme and how they post their entry.

No my birthday is in June! I dont need to get any older sooner....I will get there anyway. After 50 I try not to count them.

Thanks "sb40" I enjoy our banter! Good for the soul!
Many Thanks!

Dan- I hear you, kinda weird to be in it all by yourself, happened to me. Like you, I have enjoyed assignments on Flickr groups and starting to enjoy them here as well. For now, enjoy the quiet ride :-)

Yeah buddy! Glad to hear it Robert!
I knew you were joking and I enjoy that! Makes for a more friendly atmosphere here! The more members "understand" other members the more fun can be had by all!
Oh believe me I understand why time can hamper members from participating. As I said I would rather Fred just say "well only 1 entry so let's wait until the next WA and hopefully there will be more participants!"

Thanks Robert! Look forward to WA "APPLES"..I have a great orchard, outdoor market and restuarant near by and gives me an excuse to take Suzanne up there for lunch and some photos!

See you next week!!!
AND THANKS ROBERT!!!!!!

Hey Dan,
I get ya on the solo runner thing. But, when you run enough races, it's gonna happen that the field is small on some courses.

Don't fret on it, just gear up for the next race.

Interesting backstory, btw. Sounds like a pair of gems.

"Doc" was quite a character Kent!
While in Church some Sundays the police would walk down the aisle during the service to yank "Doc" out of the pew so he could go to a death as the County M.E.!

Yes I understand the solo running! Not fretting per se'. Just like an assortment of entries to see and for members to have a choice!

This "WA" is the way I like it!
Thanks Kent!!
