I managed to get an evening job, as a photographer, at the Milton, FL. newspaper in the summer of 1960, and I worked there for eleven months. This allowed me to have a car, and meet some of the town's people, and enjoy some meals in town. I still lived in the barracks out at NAAS Whiting Field.

The newspaper's dark room was in a room built on top of the building. To get to the darkroom I had to go up some stairs, and walk across part of an open roof. This view of Milton's main street was made from the roof at the top of these stairs using a old Aniversity model Speed Graphic. The aniversity model's were the last ones to use uncoated lenses and black wooden lens boards. The lenses were sharp, but a sunshade always had to be used.
