Description
OLD TIME LEARNING by PRISCILLA BURGERS
Old Time Learning could be the interior of many vintage one-room school houses in the United States. Built in 1879, this building was the original school at Garo, now a ghost town, located nine miles east of Fairplay, Colorado. The building was moved from Garo to South Park City. Located in Fairplay, Colorado, South Park City is an accurate representation of a mining town between 1860 and 1900. Thirty-four authentic buildings filled with over 60,000 artifacts portray most of the economic and social aspects of boomtown life. Seven of the buildings are on their original sites; the others have been moved from abandoned camps and ghost towns in South Park, a 900 square mile basin surrounded by Colorado's majestic Rocky Mountains. The restored buildings contain period room settings and exhibits illustrating the professions, trades and industries that contributed to life in a nineteenth century Colorado mining town. South Park City, in this beautiful area, is well worth the visit.

Very interesting and historic image here, Priscilla! I live in a small community near Tucson named Vail that was part of a huge cattle ranching area. Back in the early 1900s, two teachers taught K-12 in a one room school house like this....the Trotter Sisters. The rail road crossing is where the post office was and where they loaded cattle to be sent to California! FAV
