True, I spent an hour last night looking at old USGS maps (which I like to do anyway) trying to
identfiy a location with a large lump in the background like in the photo.  I didn't find one
between Susquehanna and Port J.  All the hills look much larger than that hill.  I am VERY curious
about where this is.
