Anitiyah Continued

A new baby, a move from a very small mine site to a new State, and another mining town. Two small children. A cat that I loved. He was black and large, and I so wanted him to make it to the new place! But I had had the baby two weeks before the trip. How is that for planning. I cannot remember just what went into this planning, or if there was any at all.

Aniy was tiny like her siblings at birth. Six lbs. something. She was good in that she did not cry much, but did seem to have an acute sense of hearing. Things are a blur in that I do not remember getting reading for this trip, just that we made it. Actually, we came down Tennessee Pass toward the new town and realized that the car was acting up, and we stopped at what we thought was a gas station but was actually a home with not automobile amenities, even though it had a gas pump out front, and they did have some oil, which the Bug needed. We then went on to find a motel in town. I was exhausted.

As far as I can remember the children really were quite good, amusing themselves and seeming to understand that their Mom was having some troubles.
