I had to place the camera on a ricky old fence. Then hit the timer run over to the spot and hope the timer doesn't run out.

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4EzYgds1lEg"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4EzYgds1lEg" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

Intreserting area that was set aside for this one for this one guy who I think helped out with the park.

A shot of the plaque put up to honor his memory

A rubbing of it. As I was doing it a woman came up to and ask me if I knew the guy who that area was set aside for him. I said no and she then told how the area came to be and that she comes out there to take care of it every so often.

"now that you know where you are,

or look for crop circles in the corn
