Personal Memory from Monty Small: If you were a teenager in the early 1940s and you went ice skating, you surely went to “Ames Meadow.” It seemed like every kid in town was there, sometimes until midnight. We would have bonfires going and everyone had a good time, just skating. The Ames brothers never said a word. They just let us go on having our fun. During the day, Burt Ames would be out cutting wood and when it came lunch time Calvin would come outdoors with a horn and blow it, and pretty soon Burt would trot across the pond to have his lunch. Nice folks, especially to us kids. None of them ever married so, when they were gone, they were gone.
