This week I’m concluding my slide carousel labeled 1951 — although in fact the last couple of slides have the year 1950 written on them, and the first three might actually be from 1956. Ah, well! I originally posted these images in late 2016; they include scenes from a snow trip up Highway 50 (east of Sacramento) as well as […]
This week, a few more scenes from Lake Tahoe plus a couple from Donner Summit. I’m including a couple of images of Lake Tahoe’s waters that I previously skipped over because the prior scans didn’t exactly work out. In my original post I included a few notes about the history of US 40 — now Interstate 80 — seen, above, […]
Images from Echo Summit and Lake Tahoe in 1951.
This week I’m finishing up the scenes from the Yosemite region shot in 1951. You can find my previous Yosemite post (week 6) right here; and you’d like to compare my earlier versions of these slides, you’ll find them in my Memory Monday, Week 5, post from December 2016. Next week, I’ll take another look at some slides from Lake […]
Images from a trip to Yosemite National Park in 1951; I originally posted these pictures in December 2016.
This week I’ve got new scans of slides from San Antonio, Texas, in 1951. For a look at what my earlier version of these slides looked like, as well as a bit more background of the places depicted, check out my earlier posts, Memory Monday, Week 2 (from November 2016), and Memory Monday, Week 3 (from December 2016).
A few of the images from a February-March 1957 road trip to the East Coast, including New York and Pennsylvania.
Here are a few more re-scanned slides from 1959 Wyoming; most of these are images I chose not to blog because I wasn’t satisfied with the way they looked.
Well, I promise that I’m serious about moving onto other things for my Monday posts (I have at least one idea I like quite a lot). At the same time, I felt I really needed to re-scan the earlier ones from my family’s 1959 trip through South Dakota and Wyoming as a personal project — and the results are so […]
