Liz Gage's drawing of the place where we lived throughout the 1930s



I asked Liz to draw a sketch of the layout of the little farmstead where we lived throughout the Great Depression of the 1930s, which we abandoned in 1941 when we moved to Ralston, east of Powell on the Cody highway, and then lived there from 1941-1944, returning to Penrose in 1944.  This sketch appeared in one of my personal history memoirs.

This was according to my "feeble" memory - after all, I was still 5 years old when we moved away. When Louise wrote her book, she had me clear up a few things, so there is another drawing out there somewhere.

I love this sketch and others that Elizabeth has drawn. It would be nice to see the rest of them.

I included several of elizabeth's sketches in my book, including the revised one of our place. Maybe we need to make a collecton of them in one place. Ann, I already have dibs on the old place.
