other piece of furniture was a dresser which held a large bowl and a water pitcher which was used as a wash basin. There was no heat in the cabin, and usually the only electric light was one bulb which hung on a cord from the center of the ceiling. There were two windows at the front of the cabin on either side of the door entrance. There was a small window at the back of the cabin. Inexpensive curtains covered the windows. In the mornings, we would get up and make a fire in the camp stoves outside the cabin. These were fueled by wood and had a tall stack which puffed out smoke. We would put on our swim suits and go into the lake or sunbathe on the sandy beach. Sometimes we would pay to take a motorboat ride or rent a row boat. Occasionally, if we were there on a Sunday, we would join other L.D.S. people for a Church service out in the open. At nights there was roller skating in an enclosed building. Often we would go north across the border into Idaho and stop at Fish Haven. PLANS to BUILD a HOME of OUR OWN In the ensuing years leading to 1957, Vern and I would drive to various areas in Ogden looking for building lots. Finally we found the location where our home would be constructed--1255 Henderson Drive. There were no homes to be seen around us. We only could speculate where the lots were for sale from the plot drawings of the properties. We bought the lot, but it was some five years before we were able to build. Financial concerns and uncertainty following War II delayed our building. My dear brother, Orion, offered to loan us $5,000.00 to get us started on our building. We had already paid for the lot. Mother kept saying to me, "Why don't you accept his kind offer?" But Vern felt uncertain about future work conditions. I recall the evening when Arden Greenwood came to our home with the building cost. This was accepted. We started building the first part of 1957. WE MOVE to 1255 HENDERSON DRIVE With the home being finished in late December 1957, our sons, Jerry and Lowell, suggested we stay the night before Christmas in the new home as it had a fireplace. Therefore, we brought up beds and a few kitchen utensils to see us through until we were completely moved. At this time, we received notice from my cousin, June, that Aunt Jennie had passed away and that Dora and June would be coming to Ogden for the funeral. Our move needed to be postponed as we needed to make arrangements for the viewing, funeral and burial, and provide accommodations for Dora and June to stay with us in
