The Historical site is really interesting, I do hope they keep posting the articles and adding some pictures. We moved to Wrightwood in the early 50's so some of the history I remember when it happened and knew some of the people but not their histories.

Anyone familiar with the tent site properties? That's where people bought property to camp on (in a tent) when they came up here for a vacation.

There were no fish in Wright's lake in the 60's.  They had already dumped mounds of dirt, cement and debris in it.  Still there were several very large "pools" of water that had plenty of tadpoles and frogs!

Does anyone want more old Wrightwood pictures or Wrightwood Roots on the website?  I would like to know if I should generate more WW history on the web???  The comments have been few and time spaced.

   This is great stuff! Plases don't stop posting roots or photos.
 
  It's one of those things you read and kind of absorb...But don't feel like cluttering it up with comments at the moment...But a few weeks later you find yourself looking at a corner building in town and drawing on what you remeber...
