Thank you for those many fabulous photos!

The high point of a camping trip to Yellowstone can be the interaction with wildlife.

A quick Saturday camping trip

One or two of the earlier photos probably show peoples' permanent homes - the old Ford A and tent combo with a smokestack could well be somebody during the "dustbowl" era. We whine about the present recession, but those poor b*****ds really had it rough.
-
agreed :-\

Sorry - I can pull that one, as it's not in keeping with the theme of this thread.

Another tank of gas and...

-
Oooops !
-
Another installment, in various sizes and shades...
-
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both
-
And be one traveler, long I stood, and looked down one as far as I could. To where it bent in the undergrowth...
-
Then took the other, as just as fair, and having perhaps the better claim, because it was grassy and wanted wear...
-
Though as for that the passing there had worn them really about the same...

As you can see in the first pic of Otto's last batch, we Frenchies always carry a picnic table and folding chairs in the car's trunk. Note the "béret", the "canadienne" (jacket) and the two bottles of wine.

It's a still from the 60s B-movie "Attack of the Giant Tennis Player". Does anyone else think the "smaller" lady in the background looks like a posed Barbie doll?

1937 Ford Housecar Camper
Ford's first attempt at creating a motorhome.
This ultra-rare vehicle was built on a 1937 Ford chassis. It was produced at the St. Paul, MN Ford plant in 1937. It features a single driver's seat, adjustable window, storage cabinets, hide away table, sink, sleeping quarters, and a pop up center roof for camping.

A super rare combination I´d say:
-
Like a lot of 'car' words that have different meanings in the US and UK (e.g. hood, which of course means the thing covering the engine at the front in the US but the thing you pull up in a convertible in the UK when it starts raining - or, more likely, the thing you drop down if/when it stops raining!) 'trailer' means something very different, although of course it's always something pulled behind the car.
The Americans call what we call a 'caravan' a trailer; what we in the UK call a trailer is pictured below (I'm not sure what the Americans call it?).
So that Vale is in fact towing a caravan not a trailer, just as it says in the caption!
