This Ransohoff Collection home movie spans the 1939-40 Golden Gate International Exposition on Treasure Island, with shots of the China Clipper and "Daydreams" Girl Show, then pivots to a 1940 summer vacation. Titles mark a road trip: redwoods, Crater Lake, Canadian Rockies (Lake Louise, Banff), Glacier, Yellowstone (Old Faithful, bears), and Rushmore’s construction. It visits Lake Tahoe (ping-pong) and Lake Okobogie, ending in black-and-white with a San Francisco wedding, complete with cake and crowd.
