Delaware Water Gap

I think I've got it now, but I'm not sure why. When I copy files up to my website with an FTP program, I can't get the images to be able to link (frustrating figuring this out!), but when I use Windows Exlorer to view my ftp site and change the filenames, I can then link them. Here are some pictures from our weekend trip, all taken by our friend Ren Meiseman (except for Bowman's Tower, done by me with her camera):

Glad to see you got them working! So, I assume I was wrong about it being the file attributes. I'm sorry I couldn't have been more help.

That's quite ok, susan! You gave me an idea, and I checked it out, but the file attributes were all the same as the files Microsoft put there. Then by accident, I uploaded a file so that it had an extra .jpg at the end (abc.jpg.jpg), so I went in and renamed it, and voila! The pictures show up. Go figure. There's more pictures to come, but as you can tell from the time stamp from this morning's post, it was time to go to work, so I had to cut it off there.

Those pictures are beautiful to this West Texas boy. What is all that green stuff?

The green is what we were hoping would be bright yellow and orange on 10/18. All pictures were taken in Pennsylvania, with New Jersey on the opposite side of the Delaware River. One misconception many have of New Jersey is that we're full of chemical plants and waste dumps. Not so! There is lots of open space here, and more forests than there were in the early part of the twentieth century (and I heard that from someone who knows - it's his job)

By the way, I'm from West Texas myself. Ever hear of a small town called Hereford, near Amarillo? That's my hometown!

"The rock" is also known as Mt Tammany. There are a couple of trails to the top and the view (on a clear day) is 20 miles.
