Pumpkin Center and the County Towns "A Road Runs Through Them": (General Shafter, Lakeside, Old River, Buena Vista, Panama and Greenfield) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781519103062)

With a collaborative effort we share a deep commitment into making this book a story that starts off, "Once upon a time." The old memories will remain forever young with personal accounts of stories from various families and friends. We must preserve our stories so they will not be lost in time. These stories will serve as conversations by painting pictures of what time gone-by looked like from the personal struggles to the successes of today. The book shares time periods of late 1700's to a little before the sixties with family and friends to the present time. I am writing this book to capture the experiences of the days gone-by. Every farmer and rancher has a story and these experiences must not be forgotten. Whether you're in the mood to laugh or cry there will be something for everyone. To remembering the simplicity of our daily lives of smells, sights and sounds that come alive from the way life used to be to the touching stories of the present. Sharing the rich history of Kern County towns of Pumpkin Center, General Shafter, Lakeside, Buena-Vista, Panama and Greenfield for these farm towns have become our homes and our road to life.
