named Salmo. They looked around and decided to stay. ©
and make Salmo:their new home. It was a ‘good little”

| town,, very much improved from the-old days. Still,
something was missing. Something they couldn't: put
their finger on. Then one day Sam said to Sally, “You
know woman .'. ;.what'this town needs is'some of

Sf ‘Trapper John’s good old liome-style cooking. Some of.,

them gold, old: baked beans and home-made soup, or
“7 them giant-sized’ flapjacks.-Remember the’ way he
used to'bake those fresh 8” trout, and season those
chickens to perfection? The.prime rib and the steaks
must: <have’-the:.best..in: all. B.C. Why, he had

something f for. everyoni » and always cocked to ‘Please.

: We should try to’ get "him. back: here.”.”

He got together a crew and brought | the logs to
the lot, across the street from:the building site. Here
they. were peeled, cut and trimmed, and then placed
where they now:stand. The cedar shakes on the roof
