Winsome Family History: October 16, 1966


It was on this day fifty-three years ago that I took advantage of the new National Historic Preservation Act to keep the government from digging up the land where Winsome Family Headquarters was located. In those early days, we often buried evidence right at the site of our headquarters. Thankfully, we still had those old dinosaur bones that Hotfoot McGraw had stolen from a museum years earlier. They finally paid off when we declared that they had all been found at the Winsome Family Headquarters site. Those bones not only explained to the authorities why the land around the building had clearly been dug up, but also were enough for it to be declared an important archeological landmark. By the time the authorities got wise, all the evidence had been moved to another location, as had Winsome Family Headquarters.
