I was over in Antonito today taking photos. Here's a link to some pics of 168 I took with my phone camera.

A BIG thank you to John Bush for pulling this one off!!!
Now for a difficult task...money! Guesstimate is it might take $800,000.00 to bring this back to life. The Friend's raised over 1.2 million to bring 463 back to life and volunteered labor with repairs such as the tender to cut costs. Lessons were learned with 463 that might be of use to save money and cut headaches.
Any ideas on how to raise this much money? Obviously donations however any chance of corporate sponsors, historical foundations? As well, what can be done by volunteers?
