2A Daily News – Friday, October 5, 2012 Community people&events Antique Street Faire Not what we remembered I was born in Detroit, Michigan. When I was seven years old, in 1962, my parents moved to Califor- nia. (It seemed appropriate for me to go with them.) Recently, I was speaking in the Great Lake State and had a few spare days, and the assistance of my cousin Steve, who still lives there; so I wanted to revisit my first ele- mentary school and the last house I remember from early childhood. We clambered into his green panel van and headed to Livonia, a sub- urb. step. "Would it be too much to ask if I could go inside?" "I'm a trusting guy," he replied, "Come in." but one would be "wrong." Courtesy photo Downtown Red Bluff is the home of the 21st annual Red Bluff Antique Street Faire on Sunday, Oct. 7.

Registration Of Minors Has Some Increase Registration of minors took a jump yesterday afternoon and teachers were kept busy until 5 o'clock enrolling. More were listed during the half day than all the previous portion of the week. — Oct. 5, 1922 Good Sam Club The Tri-County Sams Chapter of the Good Sam Club held their September Campout at the Trinity Lake KOA at Trinity Center with six member rigs and two guest rigs in attendance. Members met for breakfast at the Cozy Diner in Red Bluff on Thursday morning and then trav- eled to the campground. On Friday night, the campground held a wine and cheese tasting party. Friday and Saturday nights the group had a campfire and roasted marshmellows. During the campout, members spent time watching deer walk through the campgrounds and did some hiking at Trinity Lake. As an important aside, I provide a cautionary note. While Steve slowly drove by Botsford Elemen- tary, giving me plenty of viewing time to prompt old memories, the staff began studying us through the school's windows. Realizing this was no longer 50 years ago; it dawned on me that two middle- aged men driving sluggishly around an elementary school in a panel van could be misinterpreted. We moved on. Of course, any vehicle listlessly rolling down a street with its resi- dents studying every house will attract attention anywhere; so as we passed "my" house, the resident studied us from his front porch. Not desirous of another misinterpreta- tion, I approached the young man and reached out to shake his hand. "Hi, my name's Scott. I lived here from 1958 through 1962. I'm visiting from California and I want- ed to see where I was little. Would it be okay if I looked around?" "Wow! I wasn't even born then! Sure. Feel free." Emboldened, I took it another As I understand it, we remember every single event that ever happened to us. We don't recall them all because we lose the "point- ers" to those lesser- accessed events. In other words, every memory is tied to other memories that "point" to it. More vibrant memories have more "pointers." Forgotten ones are isolated with few or no connections. This explains why re-experiencing a for- gotten scent or image brings with it other memories. It re-establishes pointers. first time in half a century, I was enfolded in triggers. I remembered sitting at my father's feet, watching Bonanza in that living room. Mem- ories of my mother at the kitchen table staring out the window study- ing the neighbors were as vibrant as when I was six. I recalled unwrap- ping my first record player in the living room, a birthday present when I turned seven. There was only one bathroom in the house, and I even had the unfortunate rec- ollection of nervously shifting from leg to leg in the hallway while wait- ing for my father to exit so I could urgently get in. As I crossed the threshold for the Scott Q. Marcus That doesn't make us bad. But before we wist- fully bemoan the passing of idyllic "good old days," or hang on to our anger about how awful we might have been treated; it would be wise to realize that those events might not have been as we remember. We might have been happier than we recall. And as for those "good old days," they might be right in front of us right now. Also, I remembered this house to be stadium- sized. In actuality, it compared more to a clos- et. Although the truth lies in between (but closer to the latter), the moral is that we don't remember things as they were, but how we perceived them in that moment. One might say we build our personal history on what very well might be faulty premises. There were also oddities. No matter how I tried, I could not remember which bedroom was mine. One would think that would be a more visceral recollection — Scott "Q" Marcus is the CRP (Chief Recovering Perfectionist) of www.ThisTimeIMeanIt.com, a website to support folks frustrated with making promises and ready to make a change in a supportive environment.
