Vintage

This is one of my oldest (surviving) images. I believe it was taken in 1976, when I was a sophomore in high school. I’m pretty sure it was on a trip to pick up my brother during his freshman year of college. It may have been spring break, but I’m not sure. The Pittsburgh to Richmond route (back then) included a jaunt across Route 17 in Virginia, from Winchester to Fredericksburg. This bypassed Washington DC, and all the traffic. This little place was just a couple miles east of Winchester. It’s been gone for decades, though…. The negative for this is LONG gone, I have 1 poor 8x10 print (from before I learned much about darkroom techniques). I scanned it 5-6 years ago, with my first flatbed scanner. I still like to replay it occasionally…
