I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
ARLKEN_021120_01.JPG: Robert Kennedy's rather simple marker is located near his brother John's burial location
ARLKEN_021120_06.JPG: A view of Washington DC from the site of John F Kennedy's burial spot
ARLKEN_021120_08.JPG: The four markers at the John F Kennedy burial site. Left to right (back to front), they say "Patrick Bouvier Kennedy August 7, 1963 - August 9, 1963", "John Fitzgerald Kennedy 1917-1963", "Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis 1929-1994", and "Daughter August 23, 1956". The markers are fairly simple but there's a wall opposite which has various quotes from JFK making this the largest marker in the cemetery. A close contender in terms of space is General John ("Black Jack") Pershing's grave which is all by itself on a hilltop; he commanded the US forces during World War I.

Wikipedia Description: John F. Kennedy Eternal Flame
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The John F. Kennedy Eternal Flame is a presidential memorial at the gravesite of John F. Kennedy, 35th president of the United States, in Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. This permanent site replaced a temporary grave and eternal flame used at the time of President Kennedy's state funeral on November 25, 1963, three days after his assassination. The site was designed by architect John Carl Warnecke, a long-time friend of the president. The permanent John F. Kennedy Eternal Flame grave site was consecrated and opened to the public on March 15, 1967.
Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
