Pics will be needed, good ones, sounds like something good all right.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Get some good pictures, as many as you can. Not some cheesy blurry phone picture. Unless you have a good phone. Do your WWI rifle proud. ![thumbsup :thumbsup:](./images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
