Terry Carothers - Store Manager
My great Grand Father and his family came to Idaho in the 1870’s they first settled in Ketchum where they had a grocery store. They were there for 2 years before moving to karcher Id. Where they freighted out of to silver city. After mining died out they became cattlemen and settled in the Grand View / Oreana area.
There is a story that my Great Grand Father lost all of his money in a poker game and we have never made enough money to leave.
I was raised in Grand View where I attended Grand View Elementary school, Jr. High and High School.
I worked for Aid Irrigation in 1973-74 and west states irrigation for a short time in 1974-75
I married Jackie in 1975. In early 1976 we moved to Emmett for 3.5 years where I built campers and Mobile Homes. In May of 1979 our son Calvin was born in Emmett 2 weeks later I moved to Bruneau Id where I worked on a cattle Ranch. Jackie and Calvin followed me in June. This is where I first became acquainted with Agri-Lines. We hired them to install an irrigation system that included 14 wheel lines. I still hate Wheel lines today.
The Ranch sold in Dec. and I moved back to grand View in January. I camped out at Agri-Lines until they hired me on January 27 1979.
I have owed Cattle, construction equipment and horses. But the only thing that has been a real success is Agri-lines.
We enjoy our community and our Owyhee Mountains. Where we have a small cabin and spend as much time as possible with our 4 Grand kids. Site seeing, hunting, fishing and just being together.
