Paul & Jon,

Thanks for the tip on posting pictures.  It's only taken me a month to do it!

These pictures were taken on 1-2-06.  The day started out sunny and ended up cold and snowy.
Kingsley was an unfortunate mess.  Alford was a good visit.  Let's hope the vandals don't make
these sites any worse.  I wish I could buy and relocate either tower.  Not practical.

If anyone wants to see more pix from this trip (Tunkhannock, Martin's Creek, Alford), let me know.

Tony
