LA VENTA, TABASCO. MEXICO - Beginning in 1938, Matthew Stirling, chief of the Smithsonian Bureau of American Ethnology, led eight National Geographic-sponsored expeditions to Tabasco and Veracruz in Mexico. He uncovered 11 colossal stone heads, evidence of the ancient Olmec civilization that had lain buried for 15 centuries. (Photo by Richard Hewitt Stewart) #

GarnetWay, I had the honor to participate as the only Mason in Confederate uniform for the Masonic Burial Service for Lt Dixon's burial. Thousands turned out to march in the funeral procession as many thousands more lined the streets of Charleston to pay their respects.

This thread is awesome. I'm sure it's been said before, but if you post pics...use the "Preview" button before you submit your post. If the picture is too big to fit on the screen, add " width=800" (space, then width=800 or any number up to about 1000 really) to the end of the URLs for the pictures to make sure that they fit without having to scroll right for everyone else.
Other than that, keep up the good work...this thread is fantastic.

Sorry about the size of photos, but I'm posting from my phone and using Photobucket's mobile app. Not sure how to resize on it.
