We spent some time visiting Green River, where dad grew up. We went to the cemetery and to two of dad's childhood homes, one across from the old Lincoln School (which is no longer a school) and the other along the old main strip in the older part of downtown. Mike, in particular, thought Green River was "way cool" and he said he would love to live there, referring specifically to all the wide open rocky hills, cliffs, and caves he could explore! It certainly is the place for an adventure and I shared with the kids all the stories dad has told about his adventures as a kid. We even saw a few Magpies at the cemetery, which seemed funny to us at the time, considering dad's Magpie days :-) It was still pretty cold, but it was a beautiful clear day. Green River has really grown since the days of my youth going to visit Grandma and Grandad Anderson. We had a hard time deciding where to eat! Who would have thought???
