I was born in Hills to Mr. and Mrs. Sundal (he was my father). After I graduated from the University of Minnesota and married, I did not visit Hills very much. My father was the town druggist and I often, at high school age, worked at the soda fountain in his drug store. Other associations brought me to friendship with the whole town and farm surroundings. When I went to the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, I rode on the Great Northern Railroad whose train station was on the Great Northern Railroad.I am thinking of visiting Hills, although at age 93 this might seem silly. The Hills I knew had two banks, two grocery stores, hardware store, barber shop, pool hall, etc. I have now found that the Great Northern Railroad, which gave the town the reservoir where we swam, doesn’t exist any longer. If you have any suggestions for a visit, I would appreciate hearing from you. Cynthia (Sundal) Olmsted2950 Westridge Place, Apt. #222Carbondale, IL 62901
