I lived in this house for around 6 years. I've looked everywhere for this picture. When I lived there, there were no houses in the back. I lived there from 1980 to around 1986. We were the last ones who lived in the house before someone burned it down.

Hi D,
Do you remember what was grown around the house? Did your family farm the land around the house?

I remember cotton. My father's employer owned the house at the time which is why we were able to live there. The house was located on road 152 and avenue 24 outside of Delano. The property was sold which is why we had to move. A few years later the house was burnt down. Before it was burnt, I remember visiting the house since it was still empty and sadly my former bedroom was tagged and found burnt fire logs inside. My family and I loved the house.
