I was frying some left over mashed potatoes and said to myself, I'm making Dewey's hash browns. Dewey's was the restaurant in Hyrum. Sometimes we referred to it affectionately as "the greasy spoon" but I think that was affection. We ate there frequently; not as a family but usually us boys. Weldon and I loved their hamburger steak which was only $1.25. However out most significant memory was playing pin ball on the game in the front corner. Dave DeBolt lived closest, and consequently he was usually the best at the game. He had figured how to earn lots of free games on the machine. Sometimes we would go and have a good time. There would be five of us crowded in the corner, Dave and his brother Ben and myself and my two brothers, Weldon and Charlie. We had great fun.
The commercial district were Dewey's was located was all knocked down to make way for the Hyrum museum and library.
