They are stopped on a dirt road. The photograph is a bit blurry making it difficult to identify the people on the cart. Text from negative sleeve: 634. East. Red Oak, Iowa. Meads. September 1900. At Lewis Lake. In the summer of 1900 I took mother east for a trip. We stopped at Red Oak, Iowa, went up to Elliott, and thence out to Mead's farm 7 miles east of Elliott. While at Meads, Will Mead got up a party to go to Lewis Lake, a few miles north of their farm. Here is the rig, and the party.
