I will be revamping this blog - organizing it, adding photos and information and FINISHING my Grandmother's 1915 Yellowstone Journal this year.
I hope to take a trip that will include Yellowstone this summer. I will be visiting New Mexico, California and swinging through Yellowstone and back to North Carolina. I imagine it will be a month-long trip. I will be writing poetry and possibly a few short stories. We will see. I have a lot of old photographs to share with Sepia Saturday - a sight I had SO much fun with years ago and plan on joining in on Saturdays once again.
Sepia Saturday is celebrating its 500th post! Sharing history through the medium of photography.
This specific post is once again being linked with "Sepia Saturday - Resharing a Favorite Sepia Saturday contribution" I particularly LOVE the horses in these images and seeing my Grandmother ride a horse! I think all the ladies have skirts on...

1915 was nearing the end of the horse drawn carriages in Yellowstone. A couple of years and they would be gone, replaced by automobiles. Here are a few photos that feature horses and the various vehicles they pulled... My grandmother, I believe, is to the left of the white horse. I had NO idea she could ride! I am participating in "Sepia Saturday" - please give yourself a treat and see what other photos and memories from the past are being highlighted today.
I like the above as the horse drawn vehicles were soon to be replaced by the automobile... which is "lurking" in the background, above right. My grandmother is sitting on the far left.
I believe Marguerite is the second to the right. Doesn't it look like LOADS of fun to trial ride these mountain trails!
This is one of my favorite photos.
