Description
In 1910, an Oakland woman named Elizabeth Doughterty, purchased and financed the building of a hotel in the small community of Allensworth, California, a community established by Col Allen Allensworth in 1908. While Mrs Daughterty never lived in Allensworth, she hired John and Clara Morris were the Hotel’s first managers. Clara was an amazing cook, and John was able to repair farm machinery on the hotel property. The hotel served travelers, workers from the nearby grain factory, and families planning on settling in the newly formed town of Allensworth. The train still stops at this State Park for visitors to tour this delightful little town.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
