70 years ago today I arrived in Coffeeville, Kansas, for a medical examination before going back south to Red Rock, Oklahoma

 

70 Years Ago Yesterday

What does not Exist Anymore

70 years ago yesterday, a month after I finished the 11th grade, someone who does not exist anymore drove me to a town that does not exist anymore (Howe, Oklahoma) to a gigantic depot that does not exist anymore on a railroad that does not exist anymore (the Rock Island) for me to take a train to carry me part way (to stay overnight with someone who does not exist anymore) so I could take another train to a Santa Fe station that does not exist anymore to take a job that does not exist anymore, that of railroad telegrapher.
