Update about blogCa

I-40 picked up the old Rte. 66 somewhere along the way, maybe Little Rock, maybe Oklahoma City. But it is the 100th anniversary of Rte 66 so I enjoyed thinking about my parents driving on part Of it in. St. Louis at least. Here we continued from Santa Rosita to Gallup NM, then left both highways to go north to CO.

Animals from old photos

 
Mostly mules and a donkey...unknown place with covered wagons about to set out for some great opportunities.






"Down in Breckenridge, Texas, Where Horses Ride in Fords."







How families traveled, and must wonder what's in the kegs!




Not particularly welcoming group of riders on bridge.



A trolly pulled by mule power, I hink.


An orange stand (I think) next to a rather dilapidated old house. Another horse drawn wagon.


Traveling circuses always depended upon elephant power to raise tents, and have a big parade!


A small carriage pulled by a horse.

This photo of the same building from Google Earth...I'm guessing in Florida or south Texas, perhaps Galveston.


I started out with a wagon train, so let's finish as this one winds its way along the side of a mountain. It looks like oxen are pulling multiple wagons.

Don’t plan it all. Let life surprise you a little.
