Early Family & Home Memories

David: Well, it's a happy day, uh, in the Washington State. We've got Margo here with us and we've got extended family, Tom and Nancy and Silas and Mariah and Denise and Amy and me, David, and Richard behind the camera and we're going to have a little conversation with Margo about some of the past and, um, it's fun to sit down and talk to you about your family.

We're going to be videotaping and people can ask questions. Everybody loves hearing stories and also sharing with you because you're a big part of our lives. And giving good advice and good counsel even to this day. So, um, yeah, here, here. We created some little, uh, simple questions to start with your close family.

And the first one was, what are some of your earliest memories of your immediate family and your home? Your first home. Well, first of all, I think you're all very dear that you're going to sit and listen to old stories of the old [00:01:00] lady, but I, uh, I did have some nice things that I think are nice to pass, to remember that are good to pass on to another generation.

Margo: I think my first feeling, uh, strongest about my family was that sense of family, and all this gathering of family today. Kind of reminds me of my upbringing. We did a lot as a family. We did a lot with relatives and Which Included going to Glen Lake in the summer with two cousins from Saginaw Grew up like brothers to us the three of us wonderful memories of that and we lived on the outskirts kind of a Ann Arbor in a very hilly area.

And where we, little ponds would form so we could just go and ice skate. And there were wonderful hills for sledding and tobogganing. I remember a cold night with lots of snow. Just across the street we [00:02:00] were, uh, sledding. And the lights would be on in the house. And we'd go in for dinner and it would be warm and the food smelled good.

I have wonderful memories of that. Winter sports just close to the house. Was that the Vinewood house?
