Note: Charles was my dad, he was better know as Bert or C.B., Bert was the fighter of the clan, loved to drink and fist fight. He was a great lover of horses,as long as he lived he tried to have at least one horse around. He was an expert rider, and rode in many local Rodeos. Bert had and lost several fortunes in land. He owned a lot of prime property in and around Plains and Paradise.Hard times and his love for the devils water cost him a lot, but he never complained, only to kick himself in the rear for the things he flitted away. Bert was strong and used his strength to make over $100.00 per day in the late 1940's and 1950's as a tie bucker, he carried fresh cut Railroad ties on his shoulder from the grd. up into a rail car for shipment, he would average 1000 ties a day, then go to local bar and buy drinks for the house until closing. I loved him very much and he was MY HERO. I don't think he had an enemy in the world.
