After the raid we moved to Salt Lake City Utah. We as a family lived in three different homes while we lived there. The first one was Lindin Av. we lived there for one year . We went to Webster elementary for 6th and 7th grade. It was really quite nice because we lived in three different homes and they were with in two blocks of each other. The last one was right across the street from the school. The others was about three blocks from the school. My seventh grade teacher was named Mr. Scott and this is where I got my son Scotts name. I really liked him. I remember one summer he took his class on a swimming party. I thought I could swim so I went down to the deep end of the swimming pool and jumped in and I decided really quick that I didn't know how to swim because I went up and down and up and down quite a few times before some one got out there to save me. From then on I swim but down in the shallow end of the pool. But I quickly learned how to swim. I taught myself. I later become a swimming teacher but i t was not until I was out of High school. Later that summer we were going to go to Lagoon a amusement park with the same teacher. It was before Lagoon was very big. There was not very many rides there. I think the fun house was the main thing there. It was still fun. I sure loved Mr. Scott he was a very nice teacher. I often wounder if his son is the general authority .

The next thing that happened is the time that Dad decided that the Law was after him so he lo added us all in the car and took us to Nevada so he could keep his family from getting put in foster homes and at the same time he divorced Aunt Esther ,
Dads second wife and married Mom legal. We was not there very long when he decided that he needed to take us to Mexico for the same reason. We were down there for the rest of the summer . Then he took us back to Salt Lake where we lived before. When we got back there our home had been taken and re rented so we had to find us another home. We moved into a house that was over a store right across from the elementary. Dad told us kids that we couldn't go to school because the law was still looking for us and that they would take us kids away from them and put us into a Foster home. I didn't believe that and told Mom that I was going to go to school. Nothing happened .
