  4. What a great collection of old photos. Nowadays we just speed through it in our wheeled boxes. I had to think of Yellowstone when I saw the first image, and I wasn't completely mistaken.

  10. Hello John,
    What a great old brochure. I like seeing the photos. People now would love to experience one of these rides and camping adventures. My niece and her family take a week long vacation at a dude ranch, to do similar activities. Take care, have a wonderful weekend.

  13. Hello John :=)
    It takes me a while to visit now that I visit less, but is always a pleasure to do so. I loved seeing all these old photos of how it used to be. I enjoyed the enlarged pictures of the homesteads, the people, ,and the magnificent scenery, however even the enlarged print was too small for my diminished eyesight, but it in no way diminished the
    quality and interest of the pictures. Thank you for sharing more of your vintage collection of historic photos.
    Best Wishes
    Sonjia.
