Our family went to a neighbor’s ranch to help brand cattle. Ronnie Merritt was there with his parents. When the day was over Ronnie got to go home with me to spend the night. On the way home, Mom and Dad heard a clanking sound coming from the back seat of the car, where Ronnie and I was playing. We had brought the glass water and seed containers from Mrs. Wright’s birdcage home with us. Dad went back the next day to continue helping with the branding. I had to send my apology, for taking the items, to Mrs. Wright by him.

A neighbor’s son, Sonny Wright, roped an orphaned antelope and kept it as a pet until it was old enough to make it on it's own, at which time he released it.
