Thanks for having this site.I really enjoy reading about Haigler. My dad (Norvin Davis) was from there. He and his family lived there in the 20's and my grandfather "Doc" Davis lived there until he passed away in the mid 50's.
I remember visiting him in Haigler and loved to walk downtown from his house. I also liked to see the trains speed by his house. My aunt and uncle lived across the street.The taste of the water in Haigler was something that I still remember, even Kool Aid couldn't take the taste out.
My dad told me how he used to coast down Sackett hill on his wooden wagon and that he at one time rode his "Ranger" bicycle to Wray Co.
I have fantastic memories of Haigler and think of the great days visiting there in the early 50's.
Thanks and God bless,

I REMEMBER DOC DAVIS, I WAS VERY YOUNG, DOC WAS A PLEASANT MAN. HE WORKED AS A MAILMAN.
ReplyDeleteI AWAYS WONDERED WHERE THE LIGHTNING ROD ON THE BARN WENT. NEAR AS I CAN REMEMBER THERE WERE FOUR ARROWS FOR WIND DIRECTION WITH A BUCKING BRONCO HORSE MADE OF BRONZE OR BRASS--I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS VERY NEAT.
