Photos from a trip in 2006 from Jim and Judy MacDonald
(62-64)
The first is the gate
to what was the old base.
The second is me (Judy) walking along what we
affectionally called "Humanity Creek" which ran outside the old base.
We called it Humanity Creek because we said if you stood by it long enough
you could see all of the elements of humanity wash by.
Third and fourth are
the places where we had rooms before we moved to what was called "Little
America."
The "Little America" area seems to have all changed, but
this building has remain virtually unchanged.
The fifth is looking
down the street to town. It used to be mud and some may remember the
boots
that we would wear to get through all the mud and slush around
town. And, the
last is the White Bear Bar. We stopped there one
evening and it was like a step back into the Twilight Zone.
It was much
the same and the woman who owns it was the daughter of the original
owner.
There was only one other person there -- a woman who had been in
the area in the 60s.
She sang a song and sat with us for awhile.
Since there were so few customers, it may have closed by
now.
