Ogden & Sunset

Ogden, 1942?-1945?

Shortly after my first Christmas, we moved from Price to Ogden (Weber County). The house at 2608 Gramercy Avenue is the first of which I have any memory. Brent was born November 19, 1945, while we lived here.

Sunset, 1945?-1946
Late in 1945, or maybe it was early in 1946, we left Ogden for the neighboring “city”1 of Sunset (Davis County) and “ Sunken Heights”, the house at 1809 North 200 West.

We didn’t stay there very long: before 1946 ended, Pappy had taken a job in California and we had settled in San Bernardino.

1Having some difficulty, even after all these years, re-adjusting to the Western habit of calling every Podunk collection of subdivisions and strip-malls a “city”. No, it didn’t bother me as a juvenile resident of San Bernardino, but now that I’m a big boy, the New England distinction between cities and towns just makes more sense to me. Guess I’m just showing geriatric inflexibility.
