I volunteered a few hours today at Bonanzaville. The site grows every year and everyone should go at least once to see the huge collection of artifacts and historical information they have collected. Allan Burke, the publisher of the Emmons County Record has put much time and energy into cleaning up and getting in working order the old newspaper office that once stood in Hunter, ND. He invited me to help out a bit and I was happy to help. The Checkered Years house where a woman lived who kept a good diary about life in Dakota. Her granddaughter took that diary and wrote the book titled The Checkered Years from it. I think my mother read it several times. The Chrysler car brings back many memories for me. It was a limousine!
