Photograph of two people in a yard at the "Twin Joshuas", the ranch of S.E. Moller, four and a half miles northeast of Palmdale, on August 1929. A young boy sits against the base of a tree in the foreground, while an older woman sits on a swing hanging from another tree behind the first. A porch set of sun bathing chairs and an umbrella appear at right, while part of a house can be seen beneath the leaves of the trees at right. In the background, some structure with what appears to be a post and a tank atop it can be seen.
