Uncle Ron Posted October 18, 2015 Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 Here's a news story about the mining town where I grew up ... The guy first and last shown is my cousin, Onace ... is the football field where I played my high school years ... My dad was the head football coach and athletic director there for about 30 years and I used to help him groom the field before games ... All the other teams hated playing on our field because, well, check out the video and you'll see ... Enjoy... Cheers, Unc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cochetopa Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Ron,I enjoyed the video a lot, it brought back memories. I passed through Trona in about ’59 as a kid with my dad in route to a camping trip in the Hunter Mountain – Saline Valley area. I liked Trona and wished I could live there.

Uncle Ron Posted October 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Back then, Jim, it was a wonderful place ... Today it is a burnt out shell, except for the spirit of the few hardy, loyal souls who still live there, either by choice or ill fate! ...
