A dirt road runs across the middle of the photo. Beyond the road two buildings can be seen, one of which is identified as Joe Upson's Store. A horse and buggy is parked in front of the store and several people can be seen socialising. On the left a young boy leans on a fence post, his basket on the ground nearby.
