Tietion Airstrip 4S6

I'm going through some old slides taken by my Grandma and found this one taken in 1962. A pencil note on the slide says "Airplanes at Tieton". Tieton is 4S6 if you want to look it up.

63 years ago.....yet the airplanes are about what you'd expect to see in 2025.
Pretty good example of the aging of the GA fleet.
