Mount Baldy

Joe: We used to hike clear up to the top of Baldy, Ontario Peak.

Q.  All the way to the top?

Joe:  Oh, yes.  Margaret and I and two of our children were up there right after the Second World War was declared.  We were clear on the top.  It was a warm day, and perhaps we’d taken our shirts off, us men.  A plane came over, an Army plane headed for March Field, and we waved our shirts like this.  He came down to salute us, and dipped his wings, and then went on.
