Grandpa Eugene Frank, eating pie

He and two other guys, built a stone shelter at Camp Muir in 1917 on Mt Rainier thats still there. Federal funding and done under budget ! Thats my grandma on his right. She was born in Paris, France and ended up with this guy. The only grandma story I ever heard was that she walked from Nebraska to Mt Rainier and was a small dynamo. A few stories about Eugene. Turns out he was a photographer for the Elbe newspaper back then. This photo was taken at a New Years party that was done by the Mountaineers. Never met him, he disappeared from the family in the twenties.
