Roger,
Always love seeing your material. Always wish I lived closer.
I have a question regarding using your photos for the Index - your place names are great, but is there a way you can label the sites by nearest town?
I know you have roadside fancies, mayday dig, birthday hill. among other wonderful names - I even remember the ones you found digging through the roots after a tree fell over. Do you mind providing a city/town placenames? I'm not looking for mileage or anything like that - only a proximity to maybe show the color/pattern differences for different locations.
Thanks!
Lowell
