Buggy.

Many families have old photos like this.  This is my maternal grandmother on the back of a buggy in rural East Texas, about 1920.  Grandmother was born in 1897 and died in 1987.  She knew Civil War veterans and she saw men land on the moon.  There will never be another generation living through such a vast sweep of history, going from horse-and-buggy travel to the first human landing on the moon.

About admin

Born in Ohio, raised in Texas, and spent time in parts between. I enjoy exploring precincts near and far. I took all the photographs in this website, although most of them I took earlier than the date posted. If anyone browsing this site is encouraged to further explore their own backyard or beyond, that’s good enough for me.

    Wow I never though of it that way, in that you could be traveling by buggy in one part of your life, and seeing men land on the moon in another part.

    When I was a kid, I thought it was amazing that I knew someone that was born in the 1800′s!
