4/1977 - Pony Express National Historic Trail

 


When I was a baby my dad and mom drove along the Pony Express National Historic Trail in Nebraska.  We stopped at a couple of places that were on the trail.

4/1977 - Homestead National Monument of America


 When I was a baby my dad and mom took me to the Homestead.  I don't have pictures or anything to talk about.  This was my first park I went too.  To start my National Park journey.

My dad did tell me that they had a friend work there during that time in April 1977.

One of the first claims under the Homestead Act of 1862 was filed for this land; includes Freeman School.
