Arcadia chronicles my life growing up in this small Kansas town during the 1930’s. In the midst of the Great Depression, my father died when I was five, and my mother moved away to take a job, leaving me to be raised by my strong-willed grandmother in a railroad hotel. My story tells about the hotel’s boarders, my pets (a goat, squirrel, and a dog), fishing and swimming in a creek and abandoned coal mine pits, hunting in the woodlands, and engaging in the activities of a young lad. More importantly, the story is about the hilarious-and sometimes dangerous- escapades of a curious, mischievous boy who was forever trying to avoid his grandmother’s work assignments. The people of my hometown are essential to my story, including an eccentric telephone operator, a multifaceted preacher, the town’s marshal, and a drunk undertaker.
