I grew up in Gobles.My parents,Bill and Evelyn Gibson owned 10 acres on the corner of WestQuarterLine and Hwy 2. My Mom severed 3 lots after the loss of my Dad, but the original little frame house built in the 30`s (?), and the barn and garage still sit on 3.5 acres. My childhood memories are the Best one could wish for......bicycling gravel roads, hanging out at Tabor`s Store, going to the Wed nt Auction ran by Nip Tune, swimming in irrigation ponds and the river on the third concession to the north. My Dad had a pond dug out for us. It is the pond you see on Hwy.2. Our property bordered on Jack Hughes`s farm acerage and we had whole forests to explore. Wonderful, stress-free days that can never be replaced.
