Elderhostel and Other Activities in Clarinda
 The Presbyterian church in Clarinda where we had our lectures and the bus we rode in back and forth to the concerts and to field trips. |  At the picnic meal site that opened the festival they had a large ice cream freezer powered by a tractor. The ice cream was very good. |
 A patch of daylillies beside the church was just getting ready to bloom. |  The house is quite small, small living room and small dining room and a kitchen on the first floor, two bedrooms upstairs. The Miller family was not a wealthy one by any means. They had the first two children in Clarinda before they moved to a sod house homestead north of North Platte, then later into North Platte when Glen would have been in grade school, then to Grant, Missouri, when he was junior high age, then to Ft. Morgan, Colorado when it was time for him to go to high school. |
Like many Iowa and other midwestern towns, Clarinda is built around a square. The streets on the square are plain two lane streets, but the two rows of residential streets outside the square are built like this, with a center island like a boulevard and they call it their promenade. Many of their townspeople like to "walk the promenade". To walk it you mostly walk in the left lane, as many of the streets do not have sidewalk.
