If you've ever met Wes Meeker, you likely came away with the impression that he was born a storyteller. You'd be right. Lucky for us, he took the time to write down many of his stories; they're collected here. He tells tales of his family in the Great Depression and their battles on the home front during WWII. He also describes his experiences in the Korean War and his romance with a certain red headed girl. Wes had a great love of his community and his family, which are reflected here--stories about growing up in Lovell, Wyoming and his ancestors who blazed the trail. "His wisdom, ethics, emphasis on the unvarnished truth, phenomenal memory of the people and history of his community, sharp eye for special moments, regard for those in need, and, perhaps best of all, his unsurpassed sense of humor made Wes a perfect fount of knowledge for this young publisher. Hundreds of other people would probably echo that statement." --Pat Schmidt, former publisher for The Lovell Chronicle
