Good story... thanks for sending it my way.  I've never read the entire piece before, but I think I ran into elements of it when I was researching the project.

Grumpy Gnome, thank you very much.  I had a wonderful time doing this project.  The Gordon Institute has became a great way for me to deal with a variety of projects that are both unique and a little crazy.  It is normal for me to photograph my collections in diorama layout form and post them on my vanity website as galleries.  With the Gordon Institute I am doing multiple postings on that website.  I am posting them as normal galleries, but I am also posting them as a separate menu item in episode form.  Thus far I have posted the background information for the Gordon Institute for Archeology and Paranormal Study... pictures of the Institutes campus and a write up that explains what it is and what it does.  I have also posted two of the Institutes adventure/expeditions in episodic form... their Egyptian archeological dig and the Loch Ness research programs.  They are both presented in 7 episodes (each) with pictures as well as story.  As it happens, today I just finished writing the first episode of the next Gordon Institute adventure... the search for the origins of the King Kong legend.  That will not be posted for several months, but it is coming.  You can see those that are complete plus the galleries at my vanity website at www.warin15mm.com

Those are some amazing galleries!  The whole site is packed with brilliant photos. The Pulp Egypt in particular captures my imagination.

Grumpy Gnome, thank you very much... really glad you enjoyed website.  The Pulp Egypt is a favorite of mine.  In fact, I have turned it into a seven episode Gordon Institute adventure.  The Gordon Institute adventures are posted in the menu at the post of my website page.

Rather late to the party I'm afraid but cool to see this in fruition after following much of it in Richard's weekly workbench articles.  Alas, my tottering computer will no longer show me photos on his site so I don't know current status.  Last I was able to check, he was hard at work on his World War II north Africa collection.  Hope is on the horizon as I plan to get a new computer, probably the MacBook Pro 14" version - but it's going to be expensive!  Looking forward to getting full and visual access to his site again.  Sure, my phone can visit but it just isn't the same as seeing the larger photos - and it doesn't seem to link to the weekly workbench articles.

Love the paint jobs on those buildings, Richard!
