| "Around Red Bluff in the 1970's" is a great coffee table book. Every Red Bluff waiting room should have one of these. Here are just a few of the photos from the book, taken by Colin Davies, Red Bluff Daily News photographer in the 1970's. The photo on the right tells of a different era, one where kids could safely be gone all day. These kids didn't have cable television at home. In the 70's, we didn't have CD's, DVD's, VCR's, Nintendo's, Playstations, computers... Odd that we didn't have any of these things and yet these boys look happier than any I've seen in a long time. |
I loved the photos and the stories from this 200+ page book. Read the heartwarming story on the right. A firefighter needed support and everyone in Red Bluff rushed to give it. I guess that history really does repeat itself. Thank you, Colin, for creating this pictorial that truly captures the personality of our town. The book is for sale at various Red Bluff locations, including Walgreen's. The author will be at the Tehama District Fair. Meet him and get your book signed! |
