See the [Creative Commons] definition of what this means. "Photos (c) Bruce Guthrie" is fine for attribution. (Commercial use folks including AI scrapers can of course contact me.) Feel free to use in publications and pages with attribution but you don't have permission to sell the photos themselves. A free copy of any printed publication using any photographs is requested. Descriptive text, if any, is from a mixture of sources, quite frequently from signs at the location or from official web sites; copyrights, if any, are retained by their original owners.

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.

7. SCAINI_120810_045.JPG: AIN'T GOD GOOD TO INDIANA? Ain't God good to Indiana? Folks, a feller never knows Just how close he is to Eden Till, sometime, he ups an' goes Seekin' fairer, greener pastures Than he has right here at home, Where there's sunshine in the clover An' honey in th' comb; Where the ripples on th' river Kinda chuckles as they flow-- Ain't God good to Indiana? Ain't He, fellers? Ain't He, though? Ain't God good to Indiana? Seems to me He has a way Gittin' me all outta humor Just to see how long I'll stay When I git th' gypsy feelin' That I'd like to find a spot Where th' clouds ain't quite so restless, Or th' sun don't shine so hot. But, I don't git far, I'll tell you, Till I'm whisperin' soft an' low: Ain't God good to Indiana? Ain't He, fellers? Ain't He, though? Ain't God good to Indiana? Other spots may look as fair, But they lack th' soothin' somethin' In th' Hoosier sky and air. They don't have that snug-up feelin' Like a mother gives a child; They don't soothe you, soul an' body, With their breezes soft an' mild. They don't know th' joys of Heaven Have their birthplace here below; Ain't God good to Indiana? Ain't He, fellers? Ain't He, though? William Herschell
