<strong>RICHARD</strong> <strong>ALLEN</strong> <strong>SCOTT</strong><br />

THROUGH THE YEARS<br />

This is what <strong>the</strong> place looks like<br />

now…overgrown and scary - like<br />

a Halloween house.<br />

My “commuter” going<br />

on <strong>the</strong> moving truck<br />

We completely filled a 54’ trailer, and in those days,<br />

we could put our second car on it and not have to<br />

ship it by train. They built a frame around it and<br />

loaded more ‘stuff’ on top of it!<br />

On August 28 th we left<br />

Abbotsford, 3 kids (loose<br />

in <strong>the</strong> back of <strong>the</strong> wagon),<br />

1 dog (Muffin), 1 budgie,<br />

suitcases for a week of<br />

motels, and pulling <strong>the</strong><br />

trailer.<br />

Pulled into Cache Creek,<br />

B.C. for lunch that day,<br />

and when we stopped for<br />

<strong>the</strong> night, found that our<br />

trailer had been broken<br />

into and my suitcase<br />

stolen. All I had for <strong>the</strong><br />

next 5 days on <strong>the</strong> road<br />

was what I was wearing.<br />
