Paul Noll Growing Up

107. My 1936 Chevy to Seattle

It is January 1949 and I have graduated from high school. I have been accepted in the Army and have a few weeks to report. I decided to drive to Seattle to see my Grandfather who had been so helpful in my growing up years. A friend Robert Tallman and I start to Seattle in my 1936 Chevy coupe. It is the year of the worst weather in 30 years. Roads are blocked by ice and snow ahead of us and behind us but opens up when we get there. God looks after us.
