In 1930, Summerland school teacher Thelma Hobbs enjoyed a summer vacation with teacher Ruth Dale and Dale’s mother.
The trip took them to Spokane, the Kootenays and western Alberta.
Pictured here, Hobbs enjoys a breakfast at an auto camp near Calgary.
Road trips remain popular today, but motorists now will pay considerably more for fuel than in 1930.
