    3. > Hopefully, five things will happen at our October meeting/outing at Mt.Tam cemetery: > 1. We will get to know each other better and have a good time. > 2. We will all learn something > 3. We will 'inventory' the inscriptions at the cemetery for publication and profit, and photograph each stone for (hopefully) additional profit > 4. I will give a demonstration of my 'toolkit' that I take with me when I visit cemeteries, including a nice method of tombstone rubbing, and others there will share their tricks,too. > 5. We will give a 'class' on "reading tombstones and understanding tombstone inscriptions and symbols." > > Questions: > 1. If you have a decent laptop with some memory in it, and you are willing to let that laptop be part of our outing, please advise > 2. If you have a digital camera that will hold LOTS of photos, and can then be downloaded into a laptop while in the field, and if you will let that camera be part of our outing, please advise. > 3. In the past, I have seen things written about the symbols on tombstones. If you have information on this subject, please let me know > Jerry D. Moore --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
