Golden Spike Historic Site in Promontory Summit, Utah | September 1974 & September 2015
Excerpt from my grandmother’s travel journal on September 16th, 1974:“Walked out on the site to look closely at the two locomotives, tent, wagons, etc. Nobody there but us – and the warm sun. Nice Danish woman was an employee at the counter – bought a medal, booklet, and card.”
By chance, I also visited Golden Spike on September 16th – exactly 41 years after my grandparents.
