Growing Up Golden: A Reflection of Childhood Summers

Although there are many pristine lakes surrounding the Spokane area in Washington State, none compared to our Deer Lake and the memories of the summers we spent growing up there. It was a space in time from 1951 through 1960. The children of a less complicated era, we were allowed the freedoms about which children today can only dream. The stories, song titles, poetry and recipes within the pages of this book are straight forward, like that time in our lives. The events experienced remain unique and unforgettable like the vivid hues of wildflowers pressed into our hearts.
