Mainly what I do is go for people who do not live in Oregon locally, some
times it is hard for folks to travel 100 miles just to see a marker,
sometimes people are able to travel all over the USA.
    I have a list of all Oregon Cemeteries on my website. We passed several
smaller ones today across Parish Gap. I am not sure how many are close, but
for now I am limited to about 180 pictures in low res, these do not need
resized at 480 x 640,most are taken so they do not even need cropped.
  Some samples are on my website.
 I have some of the best help around for picture doctoring, but mainly I
never need it.
