Bunking With Boys

Picture

Friday, October 26, 1956, on vacation from Minneapolis, Dale, Helen, and Dalene drove from Osceola to Muscatine.  They stopped by the alcohol plant for a visit, and talked to all the Gaugers at the plant.  Dale wrote, “Talked to Rod Mead on the phone.  Went to Stan’s apartment to stay all night.  Saw Sue Timm, etc.  Nice day.”  They drove back to Minneapolis the next day.  How they spent the night at our tiny apartment (at pushpin above) is beyond me – with two other boys, I shared a living room, one bedroom, a kitchen, and a bathroom at 217½ Iowa Avenue (second floor) while attending Muscatine Junior College.
