Kodachrome #2 circa early 1950s

Jonestown Road (old route 22), Paxtonia, Pennsylvania

About six miles east of Harrisburg. The building in the background was Miller's Feed Mill, suggesting the still rural nature of this area. Farmers still came in to buy their feed and bales of hay.

I'm standing on the parking area between our house and the mill. Those are Cub Scout trousers and a Space Ranger T-shirt.

Kodachrome #1 circa late 1940s/1950

Along old Route 22, about six miles east of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania circa 1950. 

The area was still relatively undeveloped. Note the old barn across the road. Shortly the Harrisburg Drive-In would open about a half-mile east down the road from this spot. My family eventually moved to a house on old route 22, aka Jonestown Road, across the fields behind the barn.
