When I was taking a California History at Sacramento, the book had a picture taken in the 1860s of the railroad cut at "Cape Horn" outside Colfax in Placer County, CA. I knew the spot it was taken from, and went and replicated the exact shot from the exact spot 140 years later. I got an A in the class with that one!

I bet that was a wonderful sense of History to stand there. Did you know about the WW2 picture when you took this one????
