Historic Hood River
Twin Oaks Fruit Farm

Notes
We’ve talked about Samuel and Emma Blythe’s early home “Twin Oaks Fruit Farm” a couple of times but it doesn’t look like I’ve posted good image of the home itself, so here it is. Tomorrow you’ll learn where it was located.

Already think the location was on Belmont.

Beautiful. The land of hard work and opportunity.
I don’t suppose the two oaks still stand?
Kyle
The diagonal square window on this one reminds me of the house at Sherman & 9th, that was built by a doctor around 1905, I believe? House is still there, a nice couple we know lives there.

Another trick to get previous images is to click on the Previous arrow in the upper left, the image and image number of the previous day’s image will be shown in the browser URL, and you can then change that image number to any other image number you want to see, then hit enter. At least that works for me on Windows with the Edge browser. Image 1652 is the Garden Party at Twin Oaks in late June 1914, which you can also see by clicking on Twin_Oaks_Farm in the Tags.
