From our recent vacation to the Oregon/Washington coast.

This is Dead Man's Cove, on the way to Cape Disappointment Lighthouse near Ilwaco, Washington.

This is from the boardwalk in Long Beach, Washington. It was amazing the way the sun was beaming through the heavy clouds all over the place.

Nominally the first building in France to be liberated from the Nazis. (Ask for the local cider)

Beautiful vehicle. BUT... I got stuck behind him on the way to the ferry home. I might have called him naughty names.

There was an effort to collect as many C-47/DC-3s as possible in the region... I think they did well.

My cousin's restaurant. "1919". It's decorated with all kinds of antiques.

An important message from Uncle Sam!

A long time ago (back in the 1950s and 60s), my grandfather worked in a photography studio in a small country town in Malaya (as it was then known).

According to my father, this is the kind of camera they used (photographs taken by me):

It is an EXTREMELY antiquated, probably wet-glass technology camera. I photographed this at a museum I visited during my last trip to Asia. How old would a camera like this be? When did these date from? Does anybody know? My guess is the mid-1800s.
