USA pictures and information by a Canadian Tourist and occasional itinerant software worker

USA - United States of America

USA is a much visited but not always fully appreciated mega-country.
	As a Canadian who grew up just an hour from the American border, I have visited many times. If you include things like 20 minutes in an Alaskan border bar or all night cross country drives, I have been in 49 states. There are many things to see in and appreciate in south of the Canadian border. I have some close American friends and even some Yankee ancestors.
	There are some things in the USA that don't always smell like roses; but there is so much else to appreciate and cherish. (I just wished that the cherishing part would include a bit less garbage, asphalt, flooded rivers and weaponry).
	If you follow the USA site index you will see some great scenery. I worked in Mississippi and California between 1997 and 2002. Many of those pictures show up in my What Was New Pages.
	During one of my early American travels through places like Houston, Salt Lake City and Denver I managed to ruin a roll of film. Too bad. But in 1976 I took two weeks to drive from Montreal to Vancouver. I headed down the East Coast as far as South Carolina. I have photos from Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Washington, DC on my other pages. The first group of photos includes Nantucket ships, Newport homes, Virgina Beach bridges and Charleston streets and alleys.
