Several people who have read Oxpatch and the Hill, including my wife when she edited the book, indicated they wished it had photographs. I was hesitant to try to add photographs for a couple of reasons. One was simply production time. I worked on the book for years; I was impatient, ready to get it into print. And, I simply didn't have photos of a lot of the things mentioned in the book.

Well, we live in a virtual world now, full of electronic miracles. I'm adding some photos I have and requesting others who read this to share theirs. Here's what we have so far:

• Early College Hill Photos
• Farm Life
• Around Oxford - 1950s & 1960s
• Oxford Businesses - 1953
• Oxford Businesses - 1957
• Oxford Businesses - 1967
• Family, Pets and Friends
• Horses
• Making Music
• Saga of Wheels
• Scouting Adventures
• OntheWater

There are more great pictures on these websites:

• UHS Class of 57
• UHS/OHS Class of 66
• OHS Class of 68
• OHS Class of 69

I'd love for you to send me your pictures to help preserve this memory. If you can scan them and email them to me at david@oxpatch.com, that would be great. If you don't have a scanner, mail them to me. I promise I'll scan them in a timely fashion and send them back. Label them for me, please, when you can.
