August 17 - 19, 1934

August 17-19, 1934


Friday Aug. 17  Turned back to Madison Junctions to West Yellowstone and out of the park.  Drove a few miles in Montana, and then into Idaho Falls, Pocatello and American Falls where we gave $1.00 for a cabin.


Saturday morning August 18 — On to Twin Falls where they claim to have the largest irrigation project in the U.S.  Lots of alfalfa and fruit, etc.  Boise where we changed batteries, the old one having gone “hay-wire”  Stopped at Ironside Oregon for .75c (even helped ourselves to a second cabin)


Sunday Aug. 19 — Drove to John Day and then decided we had better get our permit issued to non-residents for driving in Oregon.  Prineville, then Redmond, and next to Terrebonne, where we got directions to C.W. Heims, Crooked River Ranch.  My card had not arrived so we certainly did surprise Ida and Elmo Wright they are the managers of Crooked River Ranch.  This was Sunday afternoon and we left Mon. after dinner.  Stayed in the millionaires house that nite and will we ever forget that bath tub?

Ida  was a cousin of Selma's spelled Eda in the Decendants of Olaf D.J. Olson and Lena Hansdotter Olson family history.  Lena Hansdotter Olson was Selma's Grandmother.
