At 11:10 AM, 100 years ago today, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia in response to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his Duchess a month before in Sarajevo. World War 1 begins.
Devious Journal Entry
Heading out to San Diego and Los Angeles tomorrow. Hope to get good film shots of USS Iowa, Fort MacArthur, Queen Mary and other SoCal sights.
Charge of the Scots Greys at Waterloo
200 years ago today:
Pompo
An interesting personage who died a hundred years ago today: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algernon_Heneage
Skipper of HMS Warrior, Britain's first ironclad warship, for a few months in 1881. He was known for his impressive snobbery, even by the standards of the day. Gilbert & Sullivan should have featured him in one of their operettas.

Studebaker Driver's Club International Meet
I'll be heading to Dover, Delaware this coming Monday for the 50th annual Studebaker Driver's Club international meet at the Speedway. Will stay the whole week and expect to get a lot of pictures. The last big Stude meet that I attended was in Sacramento in 2003 when I lived in California. I joined the SDC back in 1971 and have owned two cars.
In addition to auto stuff I hope to go down to Cape Henlopen and get shots of the coast artillery batteries there plus anything else of interest. This is my first visit to Delaware.

And what did we learn from that war? Absolutely nothing.
