The photographs are the property of the Library of Congress and were included in a 2006 exhibit Bound for Glory: America in Color.

Connor and Holly biking on the Powerline Trail

Took the little guys out to ride bikes on the Cushman Powerline trail today. Next trick is to teach them to drive so they can ride back to the truck and come pick me up at the lower trailhead next time.
