Photos of Helen's Life

Upon digging further into Helen's extensive collections, one cannot help but get the feeling that she was a women who had a zest for life! Her photographs of her many travels, among them Old Faithful in Yellowstone, and the Giant Redwoods in Sequoia in the 1930s and 1940s are of some of the most interesting I have found to date. The two National Parks before real commercialization took over are beautiful.

We have 25 photo albums that we have just begun working on cataloging and archiving. I'm sure as our work progresses, I will find more photographs that will hold my interest, and will also show another side of Helen that we have not yet seen. Each box holds a new treasure!
