LEBANON – LYNN CREEK STAR ROUTE

When I was in 1st grade we moved “out into the country”. We moved about 2 miles out of town on highway YY. Our mailing address was Lynn Creek Star Route. Our house sat at the end of "S" curve - so named because the road curved like an "S". There was a small woods across from our driveway we would wander around in. The house had sandstone on the front and two buildings that served as garages. One of them had a small cellar attached to it. The other had a small room that we used at times as a play room. The property had about three acres of land with it.

There were a lot of great times living in the country. I would ride my police car to the edge of the sidewalk leading to our house and eat lunch. Sometimes I would climb up one of the trees in the front yard and try to listen in on phone calls by placing my "walkie-talkie" antenna on the phone line near by. One year my brother and I got stuffed bears. My brother Phil got Yoggi Bear and I got BooBoo bear.
