THE BEAUTY OF THE LAKE By C. T. Buttars

 


“Good morning Sunshine!”


History of Our Area: Are you related?


Someone shared this photo with me, and it might have been taken in front of the old Garden City School. Do you recognize any of the kids or the building? It may have been taken around the 1950s or 1960s.  If recognize anyone, I’d love to hear from you—just send me an email!

July Fun Facts

 

History of Our Area: Marie Pope Weston Book

In her later years, Marie—alongside her daughters, Anita Weston and Carolyn Davidson—devoted countless hours to creating a remarkable book chronicling the homes from the Utah/Idaho line to Gus' Point.

This book is more than a collection of photographs. It’s a living archive, capturing not only the houses but also the names of those who called them home. Through her tireless efforts, Marie preserved a vital piece of our shared history.

We are fortunate to have this treasure—a heartfelt record of our community’s roots.

From time to time in the RCT, I’ll be sharing pages from Marie’s book, occasionally accompanied by a reformatted version from the digitized archive. I hope you’ll enjoy revisiting these memories and honoring the legacy she left behind.
