DG: So you just went out to Spokane to work and then you went back to camp.

GF: Yeah.

DG: Your parents stayed in camp.

GF: Yeah. And my mother went out to Spokane with me one time, too. She worked out there in the farm because she's used to farm work so she went out and worked with me. My dad stayed in camp and so...

DG: Was camp difficult for them at all?

GF: I don't know. I didn't think... they didn't say one way or the other, I guess. Maybe it was a good vacation for them, I don't know. Oh, I felt sorry for them after they worked so hard and being thrown into camp, but it was for their protection, too, I think, otherwise they'll get beat up or something like that.

DG: So now you went back to camp and picked up your wife and you went to Twin Falls, and so you had a son by then.

GF: Yeah, I had a son then and my other, my daughter -- no, my son was born in Twin Falls and I had just one boy. And then the next one was born in Twin Falls, too, was born in Twin Falls.

[Interruption]

DG: So that son that was born outside of camp, did he get the $20,000?

GF: I don't know. He's in... he's coming over next week so I'll find out. But he got married to a California girl and he went to the University of Washington, but that's a good question to ask him. [Laughs]
