Several weeks ago on November 19, 2010, I hooked with fellow firepixers, Firemag and Roto-Ray and we headed to Prince Edward County, Virginia, for a day of shooting apparatus.
The first stop was at the town of Meherrin, VA, where county music singer Roy Clark was born and raised.
They had a very nice complement of apparatus and are always very cooperative with us old photographers.
All the photos shown were taken by myself.

Roto-Ray if you want to drop the Darlington Heights in here and the other two stops go for it.
If not I may try to get to them later this week.
