The boys have brought the six-horse team and wagon to town, in this case, Arlington.
Originally named Alkali, the town was incorporated as Arlington in 1885. It was founded as a place to ship cattle down the Columbia River.
In 1963 the town moved south, as the original location was flooded by the John Day dam. This photo is a bit rough, but it seems a good match for the town. They share a down-home charm. Interesting trivia: Arlington was the birthplace of Doc Severinsen, for many years the band leader on the Tonight Show.
