    Description

    by Dorothy E. Thomas Kole (As Told by), Jane Kole (Transcribed by), Kay Kole Leary (Prepared by)

    Dottie Thomas, born in the early 20th century, lived an extraordinary life...

    ...filled with Stardust as she wandered down the lane and far away from the small towns of her youth, and became a citizen of the world.

    Dottie grew up with a sense of adventure and independence in rough and tumble times, with a saw-filer daddy, four brothers, and a loving mommy. After spending the summer of 1940 in Mexico City, she was bitten by the urge to see the world. Dottie eventually traveled to five continents and more than thirty countries.

    The memories recounted in this book encompass her childhood through her early married years and the births of her two daughters. She recalls growing up in Pacific Northwest logging towns during the Great Depression and the impact of World War II on her friends, her brothers, and herself. She tells of following her brothers to college and into teaching. She talks about living in construction camps in Brazil and Canada, with her new husband, and later with her babies, and about trips back and forth by Tramp Steamer, Cruise Ship, and Propeller Plane.
