This is part 2, continued from the previous post. This looks like an early trundle bed. You can tell better with the next close-up. It looks to0 new to be authentic so maybe it is a reproduction.
This is the interior of the bunkhouse shown below. It is a separate building from the ranch house.
Here you can see the ranch house and the bunkhouse.
At the opposite end of the bunk house, in the ground basement was this fruit cellar. Naturally the ground kept it cooler than upstairs.
This shows the entrance to the fruit cellar on the bunk house.
Just outside the spring house was this sign. The ranger tried to show us the male owl but he had flown from where he had last seen him.
This is the interior of the spring hosue with a real spring in it. This is "nature's refrigerator".
Here Jim and I are standing in the spring house next to the spring, as Peri takes our picture.
This scene is one from the ranch as we look toward the mountains of Antelope Island
This ranch scene shows the Wasatch Mountains across and to the east, of the island.
This is a telephoto shot of the previous scene. Does it get any prettier than this?
One could get lost in these reeds! (I forget their name!) They are tall, about 6 or 8 feet. The Indians used them for thatching on their homes and other uses. They even ate the green shoots in the spring while they were tender.
This is a view of the ranch house and the bunk house from one of the pastures.
Here the dinner bells sits to call in all the ranch hands for supper.
This is the interior of the ranch office.
On the way home we spotted some antelope. They might be called Pronghorn Antelope. So here they are. This is what the island is named after.
And one last buffalo shot for this section. They are amazing animals.
