Ed's Travelogue: Old World Wisconsin, near Eagle, Wisconsin July 1978 - Pt 3 Final

This post represent the final two rolls of film taken at Old World Wisconsin. After looking at their website it is clear so much attraction have been added but I'm  afraid a second visit isn't in the cards at this stage of my life. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

aka Ma and Pa Koepsel

These two tour guides were kind enough to pose for several pictures and they were a lot of fun to talk to as well. I had enlargements of this photo made and brought the pics to them about a week or two later.

This photo was cut at an odd angle in an attempt to make the photo album a bit 'artsy' :-)

Ed's Travelogue: Old World Wisconsin, near Eagle, Wisconsin July 1978 - Pt 2

This series of photos from Old World Wisconsin are being presented as I took them - with only a couple of exceptions. I simply wandered the grounds, taking pictures, sometimes doubling back. Often times I went inside a building, took pics, then went outside to take pics of the building. kind of putting the cart before the horse as it were. Also, my notes weren't all that good and some of the pictures will need a little more research for me to figure out what building they were. The tour guides were all dressed in period clothing which added to the Old World ambience. One of the many things I enjoyed about this museum was seeing the progress of some of the buildings as they were undergoing re-building on the site - fascinating! Enjoy! Opa Fritz
