October 5, 2023

Tree with leaves changing color
[Tree with leaves of green, brown, red and yellowish amid a neatly mowed grassy area beside the parking lot.]

Multicolored bush outside the visitor center
[This untrimmed bush is approximately four and half foot wide and aproximately that tall. Leaves on the branches are green, yellow, red, orange, and purple. The green is on the top and outward edges while the reset of the colors are closer to the ground or inward part of the bush.]

Close view of the berries in the bush in the prior image
[A close view of one section of the bush in the prior photo showing its round leaves of varying colors and the red berries along a branch.]

There were many of these red-topped bushes at this rest stop.
[This bush is much wider at the top than at its base. The outermost leaves at the top are bright red while the rest are green.]

Car and Carriage Museum at The Frick Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, Pennysylvania

1897 Spider Phaeton was made in Pittsburgh by Glesenkamp & Son. These were generally drawn by ponies four foot nine inches to five foot tall. This one was given to Helen Clay Frick at the age of nine.
[This phaeton is a two-seater carriage with black wheels and the front ones are smaller than the rear ones. The inners are tan tuffed cushions. The front and sides appear to be black metal.]

1911 Penn Touring 30 was made in Pittsburgh by the Penn Motor Car Company on Thomas Boulevard and had 30 horsepower. The cost was $1075. This one was a gift of the estate of G. Whitney Snyder.
[Side view of the car with a black roof and open on the front and both sides. There are no front doors, but there are doors for the rear seat. The wooden spoke wheels have white-walled tires. The column for the steering wheel is very long to reach the high seat of the driver.]

Front view of the 1911 Penn Touring 30
[There appears to be a hand crank at the front. There are two brass-rimmed headlight. The engine has a black front and the scripted word Penn in brass along one side. The windshield covers the lower half of the front opening of the vehicle and it is likely the driver would not be protected much by it because it barely seems to clear the steering wheel.]

1940 American Bantam Model 65 Convertible Coupe made by American Austin Car Company in Butler, Pennsylvania. This was priced at $525 and had roll up windows. Gift of G. Whitney Snyder.
[Two photos spliced together. The image on the right is a close view of the shiny mirrored hubcap with the word Bantram on it in red. The image on the left is the blue two-door car with the top completely down and the spare whell on the back.]

Front view of a 1940 Cadillac Sixty Special sedan with the flying lady goddess on the hood
[The car is black with a silver grill. Just above the grill is the word CADILLAC in individual sliver letters. The mostly red and white Cadillac crest and badge emblem is just above that. On the top of the hood is a silver flying lady hood goddess.]
