What is the white thing in the center?

I think that's the snack-shop lookout place, where one could buy some minor souvenirs and a bit of food, and look out over the huge valley.

It did seem an appropriate subject matter for the day.

If that was a "typical Nazareth residence", Nazareth must have been a rather well-to-do town.

I suspect that the use of "typical" might be subject to some applied hyperbole

Rufus, that photo from Tue., Aug. 11, is fascinating. It appears to be staged against a painted backdrop. That alone calls atention to it's importance. The expression on each individual's face is delightful. An exhibit of great pride on each countenance.The tools in the belts speak of hand work. Think they were railroad employees? And what was the purpose for the photo? There is a mystery here, I think.

Railroad employees? Maybe -- they were billed as electricians.

Purpose? No real idea -- maybe someone decided to document the working man..............maybe 3 brothers or cousins or relatives of some sort?

The positive regard the two men standing on the left and right of the younger man wearing the bib-overalls, in the middle, have for him, is palpable. And the pride and joy the younger man feels about his acceptance and value to the others is very evident . It's especially nice to see something so positive preserved like that in a photo that has obviously been carefully preserved and treasured somewhere safe.
