Mt. Chetooga
Title:  Mt. Chetooga
Description:  The bore at Tunnel Hill is the only tunnel on the Western & Atlantic Sub. The "modern" bore is 460+ meters in length, and was built in 1928. The old bore (to the right) was finished in 1850. It was a target for Andrew's raiders in 1862, but survived the Civil War undamaged. It was closed when the new bore opened, and was actually "lost" for a few years as Kudzuu consumed the tunnel entrances on both sides of the mountain. The old bore is now part of a walking trail.

End of an era
Title:  End of an era
Description:  Model T to Model A. Dreadnaught to Battleship. Steam to Diesel. 8-track to cassette. All good things must come to an end, and so it is with modern technology. This day, I was using a 10 year old Canon 35mm camera. The next day, it was in the yard sale bin, replaced by a shiny new digital camera. Just as this Dash 8 was brand new when I bought my Canon, pretty soon, it will be on the scrap heap, replaced by the newer, high tech unit just behind it.
