    Note Smeagel on the roof w/ his 'Precious' dangling from his hand.
    An old Morris auto; not manufactured since 1984.Pictures of the men that used to work in the area mines.Some people collect card-plaing dogs on black velvet, some like aggressive varmints.This guy was real.I like the 'Cocaine tooth drops' advert.Leaving the hotel, a roadside view of the Otira Viaduct from one side......and the other.
