A Building In Arizona


I don't even remember what this building was. All I remember is that I took this photo when I was at the Grand Canyon back in the early 1970's.

Re-entering California


When I was a kid, our family (Mom, Dad, brother Ron, brother Keith and me) always took Route 66 and headed for Tulsa, OK to visit my Aunt Lucille and her family. When we returned to California, they would always stop us right after we crossed the border of Arizona and California to ask if we were bringing any produce into California. This is a photo of the border stop back in the 1960s.

Took this photo of "Duck On A Rock" in the Grand Canyon way back in 1972. I thought I was the only one who saw a duck there, but I've seen several photos of it since online.

London Bridge


In 1974, after one of our weekends in Las Vegas, Ben and I drove over to see the London Bridge in Lake Havasu City, AZ. It had just been moved there from England. The attraction was not yet completed and it was not actually open to the public at that time, but we were able to take some photos of it.

Entering The Grand Canyon


Entering The Grand Canyon back in the very early 1970s. You were allowed to drive in back then. I heard now that you park outside and are shuttled in.
