Last Saturday, I gave you a plethora of Twain shots; today, we begin with a few that show what Bobby & Susie saw on their trip around the Rivers of America. First image is the original Fort Wilderness, before it became re-fangled as a Home Depot "special."

There seem to be fewer Indian figures at the Indian Settlement during these early years at the park:



Rare shots of the short-lived Stagecoach & Conestoga Wagons in action. It’s probably hard for the youth of today to imagine, but back in the 1950’s, thoughts of exploring "the old West" were a dream come true...sort of the equivalent of the excitement kids today have about sitting on their asses and playing video games.





Now we’ll add a little speed to the mix by boarding the Mine Train—what a journey this will be!



I hope Susie is hiding her little red purse while they journey through "the badlands"!









And we’ll end today with another shot of the Coach & Wagon. Wow! I’m exhausted!

Just like at home, Sunday is leftover day, so today dear readers, that’s exactly what you get. First up is shot of the Haunted Mansion, which had been open about a year by the time this view was taken. Over at Nature’s Wonderland in Frontierland, we have a two-fer!





Bouncing back to Main Street, it appears that a Keystone Kop is giving a ticket to a guest who might have been recklessly driving the Carnation Wagon.



Well, it’s not Chicken Pot Pie, but hopefully you still enjoyed this medley of leftovers! See more vintage & current Disneyland photos at my regular website. “Nightmare Before Christmas” fans—this Tim Burton classic is now available on Blu-ray, and also features a way cool tour of the Haunted Mansion (NBC version). Available at Amazon.com.
