Thank you very much, crimsoncorundum! :-D I'm so glad you liked the photos and found the history interesting. Yes, some of it is quite sad, especially the history surrounding the Empress of Ireland.

Please don't worry about the late reply. I know that you're a busy mom, and I'm sure it's even more challenging to keep up with Dreamwidth if your son keeps breaking your phone. *g* As far as I'm concerned, it's never too late. It's all good. :-)
