Hello Bryan,

I saw some people doing a "crayon name trace" on one occasion I visited and
thought "what a different way of taking something home of a loved one."

And the National Park Service is should be applauded for their cooperation
in making this possible for so many who wouldn't have a camera. Besides the
tracing probably has greater meaning than a close-up picture because the
"family were together in doing it."
