Rediscovering home: Superior Council updates
Town Clerk Brenda Schneider holds an old pipe that caused a recent leak.
Our ranch was about a mile from town back in the day. Now, the town of Superior has practically reached our doorstep. Houses occupy the forested land where dirt roads intertwined and young people “frolicked.”
Often, “town kids” would visit the ranch and get a taste of our electric fence. We would always tell the uninitiated that we could form a human chain with them at the rear. I or Brett, the brother just older than me, would tell them that because they were at the end of the line, they would feel very little. Of course, the human body conducts and amplifies the current, so new guy gets zapped. He or she would always be willing to join in the next episode when another new kid came along.
Though we lived outside the town limits, we always felt like Superiorites. We shopped, played and gathered in town. What happened in town mattered.
