Dad's Slides, Disk 1...

Mom gave me 2 binders of dad's slides about a week ago.  One binder was mostly family and the second is the beautiful landscapes of the Owyhee Mountains and Nevada that he loved so much along with old long-ago abandoned buildings and critters.  Sorry Kate, this first disk was 'pre-you.'

I was so excited to get these and be able to remember our wonderful childhoods.  Most of these pictures are family but the one below is dad's best friend from Garden Valley - Sterling Alley.  He was ONE/ TOUGH. COWBOY.  He often helped dad tag elk and participate in other "manly man" things dad needed to do for his job with Fish and Game.

I'll have copies of these disks made for the other kids as well. 



 

 


 












 





 
 




































This is another picture of Sterling and evidently his horse fell down this hill...
