Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. AJHSHM_050305_08.JPG: Andrew Johnson Homestead The Andrew Johnson Homestead was the last home of Andrew Johnson (1808-1875), 17th President of the United States (1865-1869). Congressman Andrew Johnson purchased the house and half-acre lot from James Brannan in September 1851. Built directly upon the street in Northern Irish fashion, the house first consisted of a two-story front and a one-story ell. In 1868-69, the second story of the ell was added in preparation for the retiring President's return to Greeneville. While revealing characteristics of the more fashionable Greek Revival period, Johnson's home also reflects the older Federal style of architecture which was still popular in East Tennessee in the 1840's. The facade of the Homestead exhibits the strict symmetry of traditional Federal design. Above the windows are reeded wooden lintels flanked by bull's eye corner blocks. The simple window frames are adorned with louvered shutters. Framed by pilasters which support a flat entablature, the Greek Revival doorway is bordered by small side lights. Other Greek Revival characteristics of the house include the brick cornice, with dentils, and the transom. Restored in 1956-57, the Homestead appears as it did during the last years of the former President's life.

2005 photos: Equipment this year: I used four cameras -- two Fujifilm S7000 cameras (which were plagued by dust inside the lens), a new Fujifilm S5200 (nice but not great and I hated the proprietary xD memory chips), and a Canon PowerShot S1 IS (returned because it felt flimsy to me). I gave my Epson camera to my catsitter. Both of the S7000s were in for repairs over Christmas. Trips this year: Florida (for Lotusphere), a driving trip down south (seeing sites in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, and Georgia), Williamsburg, and Chicago. Number of photos taken this year: 147,000.
