The Historical Lancaster Pictures

It was an ordinary day.  Trying to clean my desktop of the myriad of old photographs that I have saved "just in case" I might need one or two for a blog story.  I have decided it is time to get rid of a few to allow me some more space to save a few more antique photographs.  Hope you enjoy the photos.  I have tried to place a location for each one and only hope I have picked the correct location for each one.  So........enjoy!  It was another extraordinary day in the life of an ordinary guy.
