    This place is somewhat addictive. It is a photo blog where members can add photos from the last 100+ years. 85 pages of pictures with descriptions.
    The first picture with is on the page 85 is of Shorpy Higginbotham a 14 yr old boy who worked in a mine around the turn of the last century.

    Wow Toni that's a really neat site! There are tons of cool old pictures! It's a pity this picture is black and white - www.shorpy.com/sit-stay-1904 It was probably very beautiful!
