Wagner family photo

A 1920s gathering at the Woodside homestead.

For decades, Woodside home has been a gathering place for family and friends By Marie Wagner Krenz

randfather bought our Woodside property over 96 years ago, and his foresight has provided a gathering place for five generations of our family and the friends of all of us. Until recent years our Woodside home on Kings Mountain Road has always been filled with people. Mother and our uncles often spoke of early days in Woodside when their San Francisco friends cherished weekend invitations. They were all young

WOODSIDE MEMORIES

and high-spirited, and Grandmother’s best friend and neighbor complained that after her son’s rough-housing visits with my uncles she had to resew the buttons of his pajamas. Mother’s girlfriends never complained about the lack of indoor plumbing, but Grandmother did until Grandfather fulfilled her wish for a major remodel. The old wood-frame house burned one winter’s night in 1934, and a new building took its place. My childhood memories were principally of a long dining room table filled with people and food. The Sunday tally was always 12 and the count went up from there as San Francisco drop-ins usually stayed for dinner. Grandfather said that if people drove this far to see us they should be invited. Besides, our good-natured housekeeper said that the roast would stretch. We children watched the adults with interest, especially our uncles. They were three nice-looking bachelors, and the young ladies who visited probably considered them a treasure trove of marital possibilities. I remember one with her eye on Uncle Will. As she left (in an

open-sided touring car), she said to him, “Give me a call, Will, and let me know you’re among the living.” My brothers and I thought she was pushy. The family spent the entire summer in Woodside, and each of us four children was allowed to invite a city friend for a week. It was a joyous time filled with hiking, swimming at Searsville, cherry plum wars, and Kick the Can. On Thursday nights we sometimes went to the Fox Shoppe in Redwood City, where there were toasters on each table. The poor waitress had to keep bringing more bread to meet our toasting appetites. After dinner we went to a double feature at the Sequoia Theater, and then to Borden’s for chocolate-dipped ice cream cones. It was all such fun. The 1940s meant war years as well as college, somewhat interrupted for my brothers as they went off to the Army and Navy. A prime factor in my happy adjustment to campus life was the presence of our family summer house in Woodside. Only 10 miles from the Stanford campus, it became a welcome destination for me and my fellow students. Someone with a car and enough gasoline coupons would collect a few of us, and we’d head for the country.

My friends seemed to crave a homelike atmosphere for study and frivolity. A giant hurdle for first-quarter frosh was the English term paper that would largely deter-

mine our grades. As always, many people waited until the day before to put notes in final form. Six or seven of us drove to See WOODSIDE MEMORIES, page 27
