by Mom/Deniece:
We made our move from Pocatello, Idaho in 1977. The following spring Mom and Dad Davis came to Iowa to visit us in our new home. Dad went right to work on our HUGE 2 acre lot. We went to town to look for a place we could rent a tiller so he could mulch up the ground for a garden, and Dad started tilling the earth. Its a farmer thing, in his blood. Besides we had a wonderful garden in Pocatello we left behind, and a home wasn't a home without a garden. When the work was all done. He was ready to go home. Couldn't just disappear after the hugs, as he always did in Idaho. I will remember forever his parting words. "Its a good place, good soil, you can be happy here." And for 35 years, we have been.
