Stage Coach

A local character in the West is a stage coach. A doctor let me ride. This is not a regular service but his private vehicle. He said this is the best way to travel in the West.




This is City of Santa Ana, the neighboring town where I was living in California. Now this is a busy town surrounded by many freeways but it should be like this in pioneer days.




Passing through a small canyon. It does provide an atmosphere of the West.




Since this is also a vehicle, crossing SIM border is a problem. It started runaway suddenly, climbing rocks and flying through the air.




Finally it stuck in a backyard of a house. The horses were buried in sand and the coach left only the framework.




We took a donkey cart on the way back. The doctor who lost his coach looked somewhat crestfallen.
