I think I finally understand why it's so hard - there's just too much going on in that place to capture in one photo!<br /><br />Thanks for the picture (and solving the mystery). <br /><br />BarbaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-89097238565793272732013-11-12T01:00:17.914+01:002013-11-12T01:00:17.914+01:00You are amazing!

You are right, they were installed to monitor the peoples weight in the 1800's but not for the reason you would think, they wanted people to keep their weight UP then!!!! It was more common to get too thin!lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01164175782840898433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-72256686370953376782013-11-12T00:10:23.027+01:002013-11-12T00:10:23.027+01:00You're right... the light in this shot really ...You're right... the light in this shot really works beautifully.William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.com
