I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up several batches of slides a while back from Goodwill and eBay. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. There are thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here mainly because I find them an interesting way to look back at the past.
I don't know a whole lot about the ultimate origins of this batch of slides other than they came from Goodwill. Like previous batches, these too often have a date stamped on them that I assume indicates when the film was developed and I believe in most cases should give approximate dating for the photograph itself. So far these seem like mostly vacation photos that were taken in the 1960s and 1970s. I've identified places in Italy, France, Mexico, and Hawaii so far.
All of the photos in this set were processed in July 1975 and based on previous photos with this date, that likely places them all in Hawaii.
The first photo features a tree. It looks like this was taken on a mountain based on what I can see of the horizon.
The third photo was probably taken at a luau, possibly at a resort in Hawaii somewhere. That would be a pig roasting in the pit. There have been other photos from this event in previous sets.
The last photo features a rocky, volcanic landscape. This photo was most likely taken at Haleakala National Park.

The entire collection that has been scanned and uploaded so far can also be found here. This also includes higher resolution versions and versions with post processing.
