Curtis' Homestead

Hi,

Not sure how you found this little collection but welcome.

I live in a small town in the Northwest corner of New Jersey. Its fairly quiet here with plenty of places to hike and to paddle. Merrill Creek, Spruce Run and Round Valley reservoirs are within about a half hour's drive so when I'm in the right mood I can get quickly onto the water or the trails. Usually when I'm out I'll take my camera and every once and a while I'm fortunate enough to take a photo I like. I've posted a few on the site- I hope you enjoy them.

Click around- things are a bit sparse but as time permits I hope to add a little more.

Current Favorite Photo-

From the Roaring Rock collection.

12-23-2007 Formatted a txt file of Jane Austen's "Emma" into a HTML file- used inline CSS so the file can be downloaded and read off line. It was an interesting exercise- had to figure out a few things to get the formatting right.
