computer vacation
Welcome back Roger! You've been missed! I dunno that it's so much that you're getting older, I think it's more that ya might have had too much going on. We all can only do so much so we have to set priorities. Yours is family, your book...and HazzardNet. LOL Seriously tho', I know that over the years that I've been on internet I had that point where I had too much going on and had to decide what to focus on and what to leave behind. I've also had stuff happen with family health crisis and what not that I had to firmly prioritize stuff. Among those priorities remained my writing and HNet, of course. LOL. When ya feel overwhelmed by everything and the fun stuff is no longer fun, that's when you gotta rethink things. So I totally understand how you feel. I'm just glad you come back here to HNet.

Looking for ballpark value
Welcome to HNet Steve! Regardless of what the value might be, I'd say that photo is a keeper! I couldn't even hazard (heh) a guess as to what the value might be. I think it depends on what somebody is willing to pay for it. You could probably put a $100 value on it and somebody would pay that. Since you have Sorrell and Denver's sigs on it, that only enhances the value more since finding photos with their autographs is more rare now. Once you get it restored and framed if you hang it up anywhere, make sure you don't have the sun beating on it. You might want to look into getting the specialized glass that will help preserve the photo from any sun/light damage (but still keep it off a wall that gets any direct sunlight).

10 Years to the Day
I was then, like now, home and on vacation from work. I used to sleep in later back then on a day off, my alarm set to go off at 8:45 (those were the days...) My alarm clock is set to the radio, so when it went off that Tuesday I heard the radio announcer talking about a plane having hit the WTC. The announcer said something about how it apparently was a small aircraft and they were in the process of bringing the tv news feed on the air. I got up, went out to the living room and told my mom what I had heard. I turned on the television and saw the tower and the smoke. I knew it wasn't a small aircraft that had hit. Still tho', at that moment I figured a commercial jet had had a terrible malfunction and had hit the building. I never suspected it would be what we eventually found out it was. The rest of my family was up with in a few minutes after this. We ate breakfast with the tv on. We saw the second plane hit the other tower. We watched it for a while longer than broke away from it. We left the tv on, but didn't exactly sit and watch more. My father and I went outside and cut back the lilac bush which we had intended to do anyway. As I type this, it's a beautiful, clear sunny day. Just like it was 10 years ago. I live near a small municiple airport and the air was very very quiet when all flights were grounded. My mother told us when the report came through that another plane had hit the Pentagon. And then there was Flight 93 that crashed in the field, apparently the intended target for that was the White House or the Capitol. Later that afternoon, I was back watching the tv again and saw the towers fall. Dan Rather was in the middle of talking about something and he just stopped. I have a hard time now looking at photos, seeing any of the footage, seeing a fireman. Seeing a NY police emblem/uniform. There's so many thoughts and emotions from that day that after 10 years haven't tempered or abated at all.

New Dukes of Hazzard Fanfic Contest
Ooh. Shame on us! My own zest for fanfic kinda went into the gutter awhile back, but that's no excuse for not tending to business here. i1976, I usually set up a page over at dukesofhazzardfanfic.com. I will PM you with my email address and you can email me your story file. I'll get the page set up proper. Maybe we can get this challenge revitalized!
