[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3535547, member: 7900"] I've stated this before, but I'll take time to do it again. Cimarron County is where I grew up. It was also the epicenter of the Dust Bowl. At the time of the Dust Bowl, there was also the Depression, so folks from both Oklahoma and Arkansas headed to other places. I grew up as the offspring of some of those that endured the above and have since determined that those people were people of great courage. They either had to courage to pack up a car with belongings and move somewhere with no guarantee of a job, or they stayed in Oklahoma with the courage to live here the best they could. I even had family members that did each of the above. One set of grandparents went to California and another set stayed in Cimarron County. The story is that Keyes, OK (my home town) was built on land that my paternal grandfather owned. (Now, whether that story is true or not is undetermined, but considering who told me, I have to believe it.) [/QUOTE]
