Well Jim, I have to chime in here and join the rest in congratulating you on your fine photography as well as Dave for posting them for all to see. The one that got me was today's photo of the St Maries River Railroad crossing Rocky Point trestle (Near Lake Chatcolet). I have ridden across this several times with the crews and that is an almost impossible shot to get. I have no idea of how you got this photo Jim? But I guess the stories of you climbing trees must be true!! It is not hard to get photos at Peedee trestle just up the line, but Rocky Point does not have many places, if any, to get the shot you did.
Thanks for sharing that one, and the others that you have.
Regards,
Rolland Meyers
