A glimpse into life at the start of the Twentieth Century; when in lieu of automobiles and television, there were cable cars, windmills and coal oil street lamps. Streets were watered to keep the dust down. Transportation was by horseback, wagon or slow trains. Entertainment was Literary Societies and debates. Homesteading in Indian Territory before Oklahoma gained Statehood and how the original Capital was moved by theft in the middle of the night. This was Pop's world.
I've had the good fortune to have traveled a bit. I have included numerous essays on trips from Alaska to the Yucatan peninsula. There was a barge trip on the Mississippi and winters in Arizona. A lighthearted look at growing up in Oklahoma discusses the '40's and '50's. I've attempted to entertain as well as describe the lives of Pop and Me.
