Uploaded late - I’m still having trouble getting on) for the Vintage Photos Theme Park monthly theme of: CURVES.
Seen in the curving road and wagon wheel tracks around the slightly curved rock. The family’s two dogs accompany them, although the black dog “Duke” is blurry.
From an album purchased at the annual town-wide sale in Warrensburg, New York. The album covers the years of a family from 1908 to 1915.

Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN
Technically, this is not a great photo - but having to find a photo that is not showing an accident, but rather anticipating one, is harder than it might seem.
So here's my example; the only one I could find.
The young man is sitting in the bowl of the intake funnel of a cider press.
If they are both drinking hard cider from an earlier apple pressing, then it's even more precarious!

The Lone Smiler

Uploaded for the Vintage Photo Theme Park theme of: ONLY ONE SMILING IN A GROUP
The one smiler in this photo has a small, rather strange, worried looking smile and is certainly outnumbered by all the non-smilers. (Can you see him?)
I'm not sure, but it's possible that the mother of the woman with the black bow-tie has died.
Or perhaps it's just a gloomy Christmas.
Below is another example of some members of the same family with, again, one smiler.

Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: BLURRY MOTION (someone or something moved as the photo was taken.)
The Michigan Album, showing the family on the side porch with one of their dogs on the top step and their beloved "Duke" on the bottom, caught in a fast move with his tongue out.
See below for another pic of "Duke & his Teddy".

It appears to be slightly tilting. She must have had some sort of counterweight on the other side - I wonder what that was!

A friend who grew up with horses remarked, "Did you ever notice how odd horses were in the olden days?"
Well, not being a horse person I had never noticed that, but since she mentioned it I find that it's often true. They look...strange.
This horse seems to have a strong mulish streak, although that's not possible is it?
I think the woman in the carriage is the sister of the person who took all the photos in this album - that I purchased at a huge town-wide sale in Warrensburg, New York.

It's a bit hard to see but to the far left is a road, then a tow path (if it's a canal) or river path, then the river or canal, and the train - or tram track.
I'm a little unsure if this qualifies for the "Highways and Byways" expression - but I think it does, right?

Looked up T. M. Bayne and found this note for him on a WikiTree.com entry.

From History of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania:
Hon. T. M. Bayne, one of the ablest lawyers of Allegheny county, is now, as is well known, filling his seventh term in the House of Representatives at Washington, from the Twenty-third district of Pennsylvania.

Perhaps the album that I've titled "Michigan Album" should be "Pennsylvania Album"?

I like this jaunty fisherman showing off his catch with his banded straw boater, patterned tie, and pipe. Just noticed when I scanned this (it's a pretty small photo) that someone has drawn in his hair - and it's blue!

Originally uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: FENCES, WALLS, OR OTHER BOUNDARY MARKERS - and brought forward for HFF!
Here's a classic picket fence dividing what looks like a small town American Main Street from a backyard.
Behind the sweet little child is either a garden shed or an outhouse (in the American sense, meaning an outside toilet).
This is a photo from an album of photographs I bought at a town-wide sale in NY state. I believe it came from Michigan.
HFF everyone - and best wishes for a beautiful weekend!

This young woman has been seen before in my found "Michigan Album" - playing piano, hanging out on the porch, and posing with pistols and possums.
Here she is with her hunting dog and awesome knee high boots - just right for this week's theme!

PEOPLE IN OR BY DISTINCTIVE TREES
This is a photo taken c.1912, probably in Michigan. A sad reminder of the massive, ancient trees that were once common throughout the country.
Several years ago when we replaced the shingles on our 1870s house, we found the underneath framing had boards that were incredibly wide - certainly cut from local trees - meaning that our surrounding mountains also had giants like these. Although we have far more forest than we did at the turn of the century, most of it is now third growth forest.
