vintage times




As you may have noticed, these posts are coinciding
with scanning lots of old photos. The top two are in
a small, ramshackle town near Dalhousie, it's hard to
imagine it might have gone upmarket. Those are Ghaddhis
climbing onto the roof, we saw many while trekking,
remarkably open faced men ~ shepherds.
The hand-operated ferris wheel, at a tiny fair
in the mountains, was pushed by the chawkidar
of the cottage I rented. Such a sweet fellow.
I wonder if they still enjoy such simple pleasures?

Here's a fabulous place, nothing like the old (& lovable)
places I'd rented in the mountains.
