Oregon Caves Resort, 1923

from OSU Special Collections & Archives : Commons

    This is an awesome photo of a historic building (it was also uploaded by OSU here and credited to Frank Patterson).

    The "Oregon Caves Resort" was the first permanent building constructed in what would become Oregon Caves National Monument. Completed in 1924, the building was known as the "Chalet".

    Today the Chalet stands beside the majestic Chateau (now often called "the Lodge"). The Chateau was completed in 1934, at which time the Chalet became the gift shop and guide residence, and continues to house Park Service employees to this day. (Male park guides at Oregon Caves were/are known as "cavemen", females as "cave princesses".)

    Oregon Caves Resort [ Chalet ] – Then and Now (80+ years later)
    The 3rd floor and expanded archway were added to the Chalet in 1942.

The Lodge, Canberra

    I think the answer lies in the wisteria ... There is an excellent slide show of Lodge photos here - news.domain.com.au/photogallery/domain/the-pms-home-in-ca... . No.30 of 37 shows Joseph Lyons, his wife Enid, and eleven (!) children on the lawn in 1939. The plants are all a little larger than in this photo, so this is earlier, probably 1938, as many of the railway carriage decoration photos. (No.28 is also of interest, but is reversed).

    The Lyons family photo is also on Wikipedia (via NLA) -

    beachcomber australia Oh yes, I see the ones under the window sill are much smaller in our photo. You could write a book about dating photos, plant by plant :) Will pass this info along. AB

    Hmmm.... The removable nature of plants makes this a hard one to call. Here's another image dated 1950 ... I'm not sure that it helps us out much but see what you think! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:TheLodge1950.jpg -AG

    Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection - AG - That same image is dated as "ca.1940" here - nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn4660686-s204 , and "ca.1950" here - nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn3572357 !! Also a colourised version "ca. 1920-ca. 1950" here - www.slv.vic.gov.au/pcards/gid/slv-pic-aab09728/1/pc000049 (Via a Trove pictures search for "The Lodge Canberra") Clear as mud! I think a Parliamentary Inquiry and Royal Commission is required ... not to mention a TV mini series - already done!
