When commenting, please consider the capabilities of my point-n-shoot Canon PowerShot A540 camera. There are a few things I know I should be controlling but I cannot. For example, shallower DoF, macro, filters, ... the list is long.

Monday the train was a half hour late; they kicked us off before my stop and then bussed us, but didn't give the driver any information or a route, so it turned into the train riders versus the bus riders screaming, "that's not on the route." and "you can't drop us here! We need to be let off at our stop!" Finally got home and my front door FELL OFF THE HINGES. I give up on Monday.

At 10 o'clock on the morning of October 17, 1781, a drummer beating a "parley," and a British officer with a flag of truce, mounted a parapet south of Yorktown. The allies saw the signal, and soon the incessant, devastating artillery fire ceased. A hushed stillness fell over the field.
Lord Cornwallis, realizing the defeat of his army was inevitable, sent a message to General George Washington:
"Sir, I propose a cessation of hostilities for twenty-four hours, and that two officers may be appointed by each side, to meet at Mr. Moore's house, to settle terms for the surrender of the posts of York and Gloucester."
Why Cornwallis selected the Moore House for the negotiations was not explained, however, there are a number of possibilities.The Moore House was well outside the line of siege fire, and therefore, not damaged. It was a neutral location, hiding the British situation in town, and possibly selected in the hope of securing better surrender terms. And finally, it was a convenient location for both sides to reach, as it was situated along the York River.
