Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. HHILL_020602_002.JPG: Yep. That's replica of Boston's famed Old North Church.
2. HHILL_020602_003.JPG: This is a replica of the statue to George Washington that stands outside the Richmond state capital.
3. HHILL_020602_005.JPG: Here's one of the mosaic walls that they have. The building itself is a performing arts center... in the middle of a cemetery. The scenes here are the founding of the country.
4. HHILL_020602_011.JPG: A close-up of the mosaic.
5. HHILL_020602_014.JPG: I thought this sequence was very cool! The lizard stands erect to cool himself off.
6. HHILL_020602_016.JPG: Hollywood Hills cemetery. You'll notice the mural in the background. I had gone into the cemetery to get a higher view of the Warner Brothers studio and had become fascinated by the place. It wasn't until I looked down and saw I was standing by Stan Laurel's grave that I realized how many celebrities were probably buried here. He was the only one I found on this trip. Now I have the online grave-locator maps so it was easier in the future.
7. HHILL_020602_021.JPG: A mosaic to this life of Abraham Lincoln
8. HHILL_020602_026.JPG: The interior of the Old North Church replica

Wikipedia Description: Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Hollywood Hills)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Forest Lawn - Hollywood Hills Cemetery is located at 6300 Forest Lawn Drive in Los Angeles, California, on the south edge of the San Fernando Valley by Burbank (and on the north side of the Santa Monica Mountains from Hollywood). It is part of the Forest Lawn chain of Southern California cemeteries.

The Forest Lawn Memorial Parks are recognized and serve as a cultural institution in the Los Angeles regional area. Forest Lawn - Hollywood Hills is a park dedicated to the preservation of American history, and hosts high-profile events such as an annual Veterans Day ceremony attended by dignitaries and VIPs. The park features such notable sights as:

* The Court Of Liberty, which features statues of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson and the Birth of Liberty Mosaic.

* The Birth Of Liberty Mosaic, America's largest historical mosaic at 162 feet long and 28 feet high, contains more than ten million pieces of Venetian glass and depicts twenty-five famous scenes from early America, 1619-1787.

* Old North Church, a precise replica of Boston's historic church, immortalized by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow in his famous poem Paul Revere's Ride. The historical rooms contain rare documents and mementos of the colonial period.

* The Hall Of Liberty American History Museum features a precise duplication of the Liberty Bell, and other exhibits. The museum includes a 1,200 seat auditorium.
* Monument To Washington, a marble and bronze tribute to America's first president, created by sculptor Thomas Ball. Four of Washington's generals are also honored in the memorial.

* The Lincoln Terrace features a lifelike 16-foot bronze statue of the 16th president by Augustus St. Gaudens, flanked by a panoramic mosaic depicting key scenes from Lincoln's eventful life.

* The Plaza of Mexican Heritage features sculptures created by artist Meliton Salas Rodriguez, ...More...

2002 photos: Image quality isn't going to be very good for the first half of this year because these are scans of prints. Equipment this year: I took the plunge and bought my first digital camera. It was August 2002 and I bought an Epson PhotoPC 3100Z. While a nice camera, it had some quirks and bumping it would result in it being totally out of focus until you manually shut it down -- something which blurred almost every picture I took in New York City one day. Trips this year: Two weeks out west, one week in New York, and one week down south. This was the year I started the photo web site. It started to come together in August 2002, mostly as a way of allowing me to keep track of the pictures I was taking. It took awhile to add some basic bells and whistles (logging didn't get added until November) but it's been pretty much like it started out since then. Archaic but working, and free!
