[PRCo] Re: Then and Now

[Fred W. Schneider III]

The 2003-2004 photo exhibit at PTM will be just what you suggest.  It is
being created (or right now I'm thinking about it) to commerate three
events in the past: the 100th anniversary of the Washington and
Canonsburg, the 50th anniversary of the abandonment of the interurbans,
and the same year as the reopening of the Overbrook line.  

Ed or I could easily show you around.  But not right now.  Now is for
sending out the 1099s and W2s for the church, for doing my own income
tax, so that I can disappear to England and France in March.  The fares
are too low to be ignored even if I have to take my pants off to get on
the plane.  (The Philly-London round trip was $198 plus taxes, taxes,
fees and more taxes. When one has a choice of that fare to London, or
$70 by Amtrash to New York, only 150 miles away, it isn't a realy hard
choice.)
