PREFACE I have been blessed with a very wonderful and uncomplicated
childhood. My parents and family members were normal, my schooling
was the best, and the people whom I associated with during those
years were the best. I had role models and they shaped not only the
course that our little farm town was taking but the course that I
was also taking. I have so many memories of growing up and lucky
for me my mind still can recall most of them. Perhaps some of my
spelling is in error and the names of some of the spouses may be
fuzzy. I want the reader to go back with me to those simple times
when all seemed so easy. Revisit some of the stores in their
grandeur. Now, many are absent and more and more empty rooms with
paper covered glass windows are all that remain. Times change and
cities change. But not so their soul and heart. I have tried to
include as many names as I can recall in hopes that some will
return back in time to recount some of their special memories. I am
sure that they do exist. I have touched on some political concerns
of mine and hope that they are taken in the light of good humor
which I intended. For the new people, I hope that they can return
to the early days and appreciate more and more of our little town.
Some folks will be left out and yet in my heart and mind they are
still there. The literary style, if there is any, is bouncy but
that is the way my mind works. Pulitzer can't be right all of the
time. (Oh my, was there a Pulitzer living in Burley that I forgot?)
I have purposely omitted many people who might be nearer my age and
generation. These people count but I wanted to speak to those early
days in Burley Idaho population then 6000-8000.
