Those who were very young in camp may sometimes have only fragments of memories. But many remember the seasons. In this week’s Topaz Stories, three such Topaz “youngsters” share their memories.
In “Annie Remembers,” the summer heat is what most stands out in Annie Inouye’s memory.
Summers in Topaz make Grace Mori Saito Tom “Homesick” as she remembers the typical summer weather in her beloved San Francisco Bay Area.
In “Winter Sports,” Grace remembers ice skating in the desert.
