Dance Hall Rock

[Kali]

thought some of you might get a kick out of this. I don't think it was up there very long as these kinds of things tend to lose their novelty pretty quickly but it must have been fun the first couple of dances. The wooden floor was recycled when it was dismantled (late 30's early 30's?)and is now in the living room and bedroom of the ranch HQ, where I live. You can still see the blocks and some rebar up on the rock.

2. Thanks for kicking this, Kali, I would have missed it.

I am envious of your connection to your grandparents and beyond.

That looks like an adventure, just getting to the front door of the Dance Hall.

I'll wager there is still quite a view from that rock.

:hi:

3. aww thanks

did you come to AZ anytime in the 60's? Do you remember a wooden buckboard wagon up on a rock as you came through Texas Canyon? I wish I had a picture of that - I can just remember it. My great uncle and this family friend/funny old character (Homer Schmidt) put it up there. That same uncle had a filling station in the area, but it was long gone by then.

Hey the Amerind is doing a Texas Canyon history this Saturday at the cemetary there. (kind of funny because Texas Canyon was named that because of the family, but I don't think any are buried there)
