Description of Pictures: I'd heard that the unauthorized-by-Park-Service statue of Robert E Lee had gone up near the Newcomer farm and I wanted to check it out. The Park Service had refused to allow it on the park so this rich guy bought a property that bordered the park and put one up anyway. The Park Service is offended because the statue was placed near where the Union command was (McClellan's headquarters at the Pry House are about a mile from here). I thought the statue was a little bizarre because, frankly, it looked more like Ulysses Grant than Lee to me. He's still threatening to put up statues to Longstreet and Jackson.

I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com

2003 photos: Equipment this year: I decided my Epson digital camera wasn't quite enough for what I wanted. Since I already had Compact Flash chips for it, I had to find another camera which used CF chips. That brought me to buy the Fujifilm S602 Zoom in March 2003. A great digital camera, I used it exclusively for an entire year.
Trips this year: Three-week trip this year out west, mostly in Utah.
Number of photos taken this year: 68,000.
