Holding Back the Lake

15 Jan 2011 81
Huntington Dam, on the Wabash near Huntington, Indiana. The lake is currrently named for former congressman J. Edward Roush , but may have been Huntington Reservoir when I shot the pic in 1993 (Yahoo Maps still calls it that, I see). Roush had some history as a conservationist, including a stint with the EPA after losing his congressional seat to Dan Quayle. There's reportedly good fishing below the dam (there were certainly fishermen there when we visited), and the recreation area around the lake seems to be well-reviewed.

Whitewater Valley Railroad

The crew in the caboose. Connersville, Indiana, in 1993. I'm thinking the train was arriving from Metamora and that we were on the grounds of the local Masonic temple (which was more like a big house). 'Twas a long time ago, now.... We'd soon board the train ourselves. Enjoyed the ride, but weren't much impressed with Metamora, though we liked the barge on the canal. The trains still run; information here . I'm pretty sure I took this photo with a Chinon Genesis III.
