You may never know the lasting impression you have on someone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a child, I have this most vivid memory of going down into a farmhouse basement. What awaited made a lasting impression that would effect my life, and indirectly, yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We lived in Chico, California, and I was in kindergarten. My parents drove my brother, my grandma, and me to the Southern Pacific station in Gerber where she boarded the Shasta Daylight for her return trip to Portland. The only photos we have of the event were in View-Master, and as such, are difficult to copy. Right now, they are hard for me to find, as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
