I can't pick her out, but know that my great-aunt is in this picture, as she rode her horse, Ginger from the ranch in Pine Grove. I have no idea where she stabled it during the day. Lots of things I wished I had of asked, when there were those around when I could have.

Are those the steps that the football team is sitting on, in a previous photo?

Charlott, do you have any idea of the route your aunt would have taken?

l.e. on 20th December 2011 @ 8:05am

Yes, those are the same stairs just a few years later.

Looking in the background we know why they called the street to the south Pine Street.

Were most teachers male, or maybe that is the Board of Education on the steps? That gentleman in the front looks like he could rival Abe Lincoln in height.

There was only one route from Pine Grove to Hood River, and that would have been what we now know as Eastside, past Panorama Point and on down. Naturally she would not have gone on Ginger in bad weather. I have no idea whether her father took her if, especially in snow weather she stayed home. I should have asked a little more about it.

I would guess that those probably would be the same stairs.

I grew up at on the NW corner of 7th & June, my father indicated there was a stable/blacksmith on or near that area, we found a number of horseshoes there. a stable like building was on the rear of the lot by the big white house on the SW corner of 7th & May so perhaps Ginger was boarded there.

There are more than just two classes in this picture.

Good point, Charlott. I think this is the entire student body for the 1912-1913 school year. I'll correct the title and text.
