Nope, not png, also not uploading to PP, hotlinking to the original source (which usually works OK). I guess Shorpy has some sort of defence against hotlinking.

I prefer uploading the images so they don’t disappear later.

That tracks. And what a shame if she's not getting the help she needs.

Went down into the archives after seeing Glen's pics above.

Below is Euclid Ave around the turn of the 19th-20th century. It's a boulevard 200 feet wide and runs about 15 miles through my hometown (plus a few others), all without a single bend.

Anyways, before the area had electricity, mules pulled a trolley all the way north up to the foothills at the base of the Angeles National Forest. Once at the top, the mules were unhooked from their bindings (? must be a better word - I'm not a horse person), loaded on to the little trailer and coasted back down the hill to where the photo was taken.

Incidentally, the mule car only ran for a few years as electricity was quick to arrive. And the story goes that the mules were sold to a local farmer, who claimed that forever more they'd only plow uphill...

And after seeing many photos (here and elsewhere) like the second one from Glen, I set about figuring out where that was and how to get there.

I took these in 2011 in Antelope Canyon, a wind-carved sandstone (now tourist attraction) on an Indian reservation in AZ. We combined it with a flight over the Grand Canyon and a float back down, and that made the time we spent in Antelope Canyon worth it!

Hmm, yah think there was a bit of staging going on for this photo. What is the girl on the left doing with the air hose? Pumping up the bumper? And then the one on the rear bumper, washing the window in its stored away position?
