I'm mighty fond of today's first image, a very nice picture of an Indian War Canoe (the attraction would be renamed "Davy Crockett's Explorer Canoes" the following year) as it rounded the south end of the river, with Tom Sawer Island mostly in shadow. I'm not sure why the fellow in front is standing, since at this point the journey was 3/4 finished. Maybe some punk kid was snapping his gum! Cascade Peak is just visible in the background. Speaking of Tom Sawyer Island, ol' Tom had himself a treehouse, and it was a pip (as my grandpa would have said). A woman peeks out of a window, she probably said "Sock it to me!", because what else would anybody say when popping out of a window?? This treehouse is the kind of thing many kids would have loved to have, including me.
