Home
The first home I remember was on the corner just one block south of the west end of Main Street.
The house was quite small and had only 3 rooms.
The large room ran the length of the west wall and served as a dining room on the north end
and a living room on the south end.
I don't remember much about the furniture
except we had a upright wooden-cased radio on the south wall.
There was also a coal-fired stove in the room for heating.
The room on the northeast of the house was a small kitchen that had a stove with an oven,
and a sink, which had the only running water in the house, there was no bathroom.
The southeast room covered about 2/3 of the east side on the house and it had 2 double beds in it.
My brother and I slept in one bed and my parents in the other.
To the north of the house across a small yard was the single car garage.
The car in the garage was mother's 1931 2-door Chevrolet.
Inside the east end of garage was a toilet with no running water,
it was basically an outhouse, only inside the garage.
