Horseshoe Curve - Blair County

I am on a train kick lately - here is another one of the Horseshoe Curve in Blair County.

Lakemont Park - Blair County

My grandfathers family - having a goood time at Lakemont Park in Blair County - on the left his sister Lena (Lenz) Pittman and the man standing in the middle looking directly at the camera - Albert Lenz and directly in front of him - sister Margaret (Lenz) Thompson - Adam. They were all deaf along with my grandfather - Walter. So I would be willing to bet the others in this picture were also deaf and probably friends of theirs from school.
