Gray Slip, 1981 – a look back through photos

Today,  I am continuing with the historical perspective I started Monday on Gray Slip. One of these photos from 1981 I know I have published before, but I don’t think I have some of the others. It helps to understand where we are currently by looking back at where we have been. These are the oldest photos I have in my collection of this area, so we will start there.
