Description
I have complimented yesterdays upload by showing you this shot I took at Fort Laramie. In the background are the army barracks which were not comfortable and very basic.
The settlers on the Oregon trail stopped over here to rest their animals and to replenish their provisions. The fort is open and sparse now and many of the old buildings are long gone.

Very nice. So, I could have been stationed there if I had served in the army 100 years earlier than I did! That's that very same wagon that keeps coming to mind everytime I think of settlers moving west before the transcontinental railroad was finished in 1869.
Schöne Requisite. Werden heute nur noch von Mormonen benutzt.
Stunning capture my friend. God Bless.
Beautifully restored. This is a very attractive pic.

Reminds me of the book "The Oregon Trail" I had to read in school all those years ago. A mammoth journey to have undertaken with a wagon this small!
Excellent capture Jeff! :) The long, slow and bumpy ride out west. ;) Are we there yet? LOL!
Excellent and interesting shot. This is something I only know from movies.
I love these covered wagons. :))))) I would love to ride on one of these. :))))) Excellent capture of history my friend. :)))) Thank you for sharing all the beauty you see. :))))))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :))))
I've been once in Fort Laramie : very interesting.
all they worldly things was in these wagons. i heard even pianos was in them. They throw away the pianos soon as they got on the road
VERY NICE
An excellent capture of this wagon. They seemed to always get such a lot into these wagons but they must have been very uncomfortable to ride in. I loved the video that Magik did of your photos too.
Great shot and ready to be packed up and then Westwood HO! Say the impressive video that Réal has made of your work. He does a fantastic work. A great selection of your work. Dana
Great summer shot- thanks for sharing! :)
