Scattered memories I was very young 3-5 years old.

I remember the  Greyhound but it was a double decker and I thought that was nice.

We went to visit  Clara and  family in Boise  Caldwell and Weiser.

I remember Frontier days  with covered wagons and a fun fair. I tried to ride a small pig. got brushed off under a tree branch.

Got to ride in a  grain truck next to a combine (big red dump truck. we were int he back when the grain came in it was amazing  smell and the kids offered  me to chew the wheat after a long time  there was some gum like Gluten.

It was very hot weather I found it  oppressive but I was from teh SF bay area which was always cooler.

I remember the Aluminum cups and Ice water or lemonade.

We had some family picnics.

I met my GG mother Grace Goumaz Long and my Grandma Lois.

Cousins Rosalee   Anita and Julie  and Eleanor.

Had a Scary first Sunday in Church. Probably caused some scandal since I threw a fit.

I saw Ricky White face a calf being born they named him 'Ricky white face"

I remember the  cellar which was cool and smelled like cerial.

Also had fresh cows milk which  was OK but seemed too rich.

I have some photos from those trips.

Good Memories, I went back up there in 2017> Got some photos of Edwin Long and Grace long tombstones at the Cemetery in Weiser ID.
