Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
FTMCA_030826_092.JPG: These walls give you an idea of just how tall this earthen fort was. Add logs sharpened to a point to stop an attack and then cannons and rifles, you've got a decent structure here.
FTMCA_030826_108.JPG: This was roughly where the Union army managed to scale the walls of the fort and seize it.
Wikipedia Description: Fort McAllister Historic Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fort McAllister Historic Park is a 1,725 acre (7 kmē) Georgia state park located near Keller and Richmond Hill in South Bryan County, Georgia and on the south bank of the Great Ogeechee River (some parts of the park border the Atlantic Ocean). The park is home to the best preserved earthwork fortification of the Confederacy. Though the earthworks were attacked seven times by Union soldiers, it did not fall until taken by General Sherman in 1864 during his famous March to the Sea. The park, located on the coast, is nestled among giant live oaks and a large salt marsh. In addition, the park contains a museum specializing in Civil War artifacts.

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.
