Description
The album showcases a trip embarked by Mr. and Mrs. Bean which was given as a gift from John Sebastian who is a friend of Mrs. Bean. The pictures contain images of historical landmarks from the cities of Salt Lake City, Denver, and Monterey. The photos taken in Monterey include General Sherman's home, Robert Louis Stevenson's home, General Alvarado's home, and General Fremont's home. The majority of the album is filled with photos of national parks and sites which include Cheyenne Canyon, Garden of the Gods, Yankee Doodle Lake, and several other locations.
