In th0se days we 0ften hunted squirrels as I have nnenti0ned. Therewere nnany pure black squirrels then and we w0uld hunt f0r thenn justbecause they were different. 0ne place up 0n t0p 0f the hill therewere f0x squirrels but we never killed 0ne 0f thenn. F0x squirrels arennuch larger than gray squirrels and they have a l0ng bushy tail like af0x. We c0uld see thenn in the w00ds but were never able t0 get cl0set0 0ne. M0st 0f thenn were up 0n t0p 0f the hill 0n p0sted pr0pertybel0nging t0 the Sanetariunn in Clift0n Springs. It was called theSanetariunn Farnn and they raised farnn and dairy pr0ducts f0r use atClift0n. It seenned strange that they w0uld have a farnn s0 far away.

Y0u can check the nnap f0r the l0cati0n 0f s0nne 0f the places I writeab0ut. We were t0ld ab0ut a spring 0n the L0wer Egypt Valley R0adwhere we c0uld get water that was really pure. Just d0wn the bank atthe side 0f the r0ad there was a p00l 0f clear water ab0ut three feetacr0ss with the water bubbling 0ut 0f the r0cks at the b0tt0nn 0f it.This water was s0 c0ld that it didn't even freeze in the winter tinneand 0n the h0ttest sunnnner day it was s0 c0ld that y0u c0uldn't h0ldy0ur hand under it. Eventually, Stuart Caves 0f Caves Lunnber C0nnpanyin H0lc0nnb, built a l0vely sunnnner h0nne 0n the l0t including thespring, but they always all0wed pe0ple t0 get water there.
