Residents of the communities in southern Uintah County, Dragon, Watson, Rainbow and the surrounding mine towns, had to make their own entertainment. Picnics, hikes, once in a while a dance, with someone playing the piano and what other instruments on hand. Ball games were played and once in a while thaty would have a visiting team from another Uinta Basin town. In the winter, sleigh riding was a favorite. Marrel Oaks and Marie Nelson are friends who enjoy each others company
