Shot a week ago with my Rollei:

The Case estate is in the process of being purchased from Harvard 
University by the town of Weston.  The wall shown is reputedly the 
tallest and thickest stone wall in Massachusetts. Ten feet tall and six 
feet thick.

The Old Stone Bridge is ancient by US standards and straddles the 
Sudbury river.  That's Sudbury on the right bank and Framingham on the 
left. The bridge's distinction is that it was used by General Knox when 
he moved the cannon captured at Fort Ticonderoga to Dorchester Heights, 
just before the Americans scared those pesky British Lobsterbacks out of 
Boston on March 17, 1776.

I don't think there have been any additions to that graveyard in living 
memory.

Same day with the Pentax K10D:

The Old Dozer is "imprisoned" within a small forest but can seen from 
the road now because the trees haven't "leafed out yet". I've probably 
driven by it dozens of times.
