  16. Historic. Other clues like Philly and Carver still leave me fairly clueless to the story behind your pic.

    Have to become more familiar with US History

  33. Just dropping by in between my busy day job (packing our things for the long haul). Your beautiful black& white photo is like an old fashioned painting by Rembrant (the Dutch master).
