February 5 -   This site may not change much for a while. This computer completely puked Friday night. I have gotten it back to working very slugglishly, so I wanted to warn regular visitors that there is a bump in the road ahead until my son can eventually clean everything out and re-install a better software.
   I received some unbelievable photos from Rich Palmer, of Georgia, Vermont. My apologies to Rich - the problems with the computer are causing my scanner to make very poor scans of his nice photos, but I am going to still scan as many as I can in case I don't get another chance. [They could always be re-scanned some other time].
Here is a sample: The actual photograph has much richer color.


  My trip to the Camelot Antique Center in Bennington, Vermont was very enlightening. I was presented with an opportunity to buy my own photography from a booth there for $9 a picture. To the person who is taking stuff on this site and selling - you may not be breaking any specific law, but I think it is pretty DAMNED cheesy !

February 6 -   I managed to get on line long enough to put a few of Rich Palmer's photos on the Catamount Early Tiger Competitors' Page. Sorry about the scan quality, Rich. The drivers on my computer are sick.

February 8 -   I managed to get on line long enough to put a few more of Rich Palmer's photos on the Catamount Limited Sportsman Page. Sorry about the scan quality, Rich. The drivers on my computer are sick.

February 16 -   I am at least temporarily back on with a repaired computer. I will haveto re-scan the newly -acquired Rich Palmer photos, as they were lost when the computer crapped the bed. I am hoping the new scans will be much better. This photo is better, and shows a young Ron "Red Dog" Barcomb before he became associated with Ford for a number of years. I continue to experience problems, but there is light at the end of the tunnel.

February 19 -   I am trying to periodically downsize my graphics, as I have realized my screen is larger than those of a lot of my viewers. This makes the graphics which are nicely aligned on my screen look screwy on theirs. It will take a long time to do it all. I would like to add the more improved scans of the Rich Palmer photos. I find them to be huge, right now - so I have to resize them all, apparently. There will probably be some on Early Tigers  page in the near future.

February 27 -   More shots on the Early Tigers and Limited Sportsman pages. If the man who sent me info and pictures of the Hanaford Pontiac would re-contact me - I lost your name and email address when the computer crashed.
