Mary Ann & Earl Get Married

 
When we got married we moved to Dallas. I had been living in Dallas and had a job at Firestone Tire Company. By now my old Ford had given up the ghost and I left it with Daddy in Lake Creek, so I rode the street car to work. We also rode the Continental Trailways bus to Lake Creek (to see Daddy, my brothers and sister, and Granny), and to Paris, to see her family.
