A concise and informative travel diary written by Elvah Reck and her husband Albert Reck a street car conductor for the PRL&P Co. and enthusiastic semi-professional photographer as they traveled on the ever-expanding railway network in and around Portland Oregon during the Progressive Era. Elvah notes that on the night before the family was to travel up the Columbia River Gorge â€œBert came home at 1:16 AM developed negative of Oak Grove base ball boys and made preparations for the morning and retired at 3 AM.â€ Subsequently Bert and family overslept by an hour and raced to catch the train and managed to board the Baily Gatzert sternwheeler by 7:00 AM. â€œBert took a picture of Rooster Rock and two pictures of Cape Horn.â€ Elvah makes frequent mentions of the beauty of the Columbia River and surroundings and was fascinated by the working of the Cascade Locks. They left the sternwheeler and packing three children their belongings and camera equipment they secured a camping spot. However their daughter Norma climbed on an old stump to get a better view and â€œput her foot in a yellow-jacket nest and the way she climbed down from there and screamed was enough to bring everyone from the other camps . . . we fought yellow-jackets and ran a half mile to keep up with Norma.â€ The family does manage to find an abandoned house to camp in manage their breakfast and then hike and travel along the rim into Oneonta Gorge and decided later to return back home â€œon account of Elvahâ€™s back.â€Reck records one of his many photo shoot excursions when on April 3 1910 he takes off with fellow enthusiast and machinist Ed Leppert to take photos at Cazadero OR at the time a stop on the Estacada Interurban Railway Line of the PRL&P Co. catching Train No 62 shot logging pictures below Boring OR and then fishing near the Clackamas River at Eagle Creek OR.

Aug. 28 1910 they took Ed along with the family for a week vacation at Seaside OR after loading the camera â€œand all manner of junk into one back-pack two baskets and a suitcase.â€ Once again the family was running late missed the connection and barely made Union Station in time to catch the 9:15 train on the Astoria & Columbia Railway to Seaside in three hours along the scenic River. Bert writes they secured a â€œFurnished Tentâ€ for $ 7.00 for the week and began shooting photos along the beach of the bathers the ocean the Hotel Moore and the breakers and did some crab fishing. One of the days the sun was out so Ed and Bert â€œloaded up our stereo camera & tripod and started down the beach.â€ They trekked along the sand and rocks â€œwatched a number of porpoises or â€˜sea hogsâ€™ sporting in the Ocean a short distance off shore. . . and wished for a telephoto lens.â€ By the time the pair had lugged their camera to the lighthouse the fog had rolled in obscuring the scenery. Elva Reck 1877-1955 according to census records and street directories had opened a â€œRacket Storeâ€ by 1920 which she operated for a few years.
