site.  Sorry for the small size,  but anything bigger would create a <br/>
huge download ornthe need for better navigation - which I don&#39;t have <br/>
yet.<br/>

Here are answers to your questions:<br/>
<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; <br/>

 </span></blockquote>great one.<br/>
<br/>
Wet. Ask Mike because I think he was arrested here and this is the <br/>
photo he took as they dragged him away.<br/>
<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; <br/>
&gt; Is Indiana - Michigan - Ohio in the middle of the road? If so <br/>
 </span></blockquote>awesome!<br/>
<br/>
This one is in the road.  That&#39;s me pointing to the spot where a <br/>
monument was placed beneath the road in 1915.  In 1999 they paved the <br/>
road and re-set the monument in a special vault with a little access <br/>
cover.  There is virtually no traffic on this road.<br/>
<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; <br/>
&gt; Is Kentucky - Virginia - West Virginia a marker sticking out of the <br/>
 </span></blockquote>water?<br/>
<br/>
The actual marker is a pipe with a brass disk on the shore of Tug <br/>
Fork.  Gregg Butler took this picture.  The actual monument is not <br/>
visible in this photo.<br/>
<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; <br/>
&gt; Is Maryland - Pennsylvania - West Virginia the man in the blue <br/>
 </span></blockquote>shirt or the rock?<br/>
<br/>
The guy in the blue shirt is Gregg Butler.  The small monument in <br/>
front of his feet commemorates the Mason-Dixon line.  The tri-point <br/>
is the larger monument Gregg is touching.<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; <br/>
&gt; Is Ohio - Pennsylvania - West Virginia wet or dry?<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>This one is wet.  I took this photo from the road.  It views the tri-<br/>
point between two building at an ore-processing plant.<br/>
<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; <br/>
&gt; Is Maryland - Virginia - West Virginia???<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>This one is usually wet but sometimes dry.  Here the Potomac River is <br/>
quite high.  I think Mike took this picture.  A few weeks after this <br/>
I was there and stand on the tri-point (not marked though).  We <br/>
believe it is directly downstream from a large boulder, which is <br/>
creating the standing wave you see here.<br/>
