Summer 1921 to late fall of 1922 (7 yrs old to 8 yrs)

Salt Lake City, Utah- with mother, Don and Reva

For several months in the Richmond Apartments (between Maine and State streets and 1 short block north of south Temple st. (but not as far north as North Temple st.).
After that we moved to a furnished apt (2nd floor) on B St. I went to 3rd grade there.

The summer of 1922 I spent with Aunt race and her husband (Howard Haynes) at their home in Hunter, Utah. Their first child (Howard Haynes, Jr. and later Dr.) had been born May 20th and I "helped" with him and baby-sat him occasionally while Grace and Howard went into Salt Lake to an evening movie. At that time, it was not unusual for an 8 yr old to be given the responsibility of baby-sitting (alone) a baby.
