Neighbor Houses # 4 & 5
***
These are my thoughts and memories of the houses in our neighborhood when I was a kid.
***
Owen’s House:
This house was directly across the street from ours. It was an okay house, sort of an orange wood frame house. I’m not sure how many bedrooms, as I can’t remember ever being in it.
Funny thing though, they had another house, a big white house, right behind this front by the street house. I don’t know why, unless the back house was original, then they built the front house? Anyway they both were there.
They had three older boys and a little girl. We didn’t have much to do with this family, but the lady and the little girl would sometimes come over for coffee with my mom. The boys were rowdy and not many got along with any of them. In fact, our other neighbor was always calling the police on them for getting in her yard. She’d also say she was going to call the FBI on them. But, I didn’t know what that meant, and I heard what she said as Yippie Yi. Like some kind of western cattle drive? Yippie Yi get along little dogies? haha 🙂

Couch’s House:
Next door to the Owen’s house was the Couch’s house. It was very small stucco, set way back on the property lot so you could hardly know it was there. They had at least one older girl that I know of, and she was pretty, but didn’t hang out with us kids.
