Dad loved the mountains, and especially loved to go to his cabin at Grizzly Flats, which is 25 miles east of Placerville, Ca. Dad and his father built the cabin in about 1944. He had bought 15 acres from Elwood Morrey. His father and two sisters and one brother also had cabins up there. Dad liked to write and eat, and also liked his whiskey and beer. He enjoyed people, but also liked times of solitude. We would go up to grandpa Jefferis's cabin in the evenings and play poker. Dad died of a heart attack in 1968.
Dad worked for Hercules Powder Co. in Hercules, Ca, for 25 years. He was a supervisor, first for Black Powder during WWII, that is why he didn't have to go into the Army, because the government needed black powder for the war effort.

Notes:
I always called David Uncle or Laddie. He was a nice man. He worked in the Oakland Post Office where my grandfather Jefferis was Postmaster. He had a nice log cabin up at Grizzly Flats, not far from our cabin. His wife was Annita and they had one daughter, Collett.
