Subject: Cairo,Egypt

My name is Bryon R. Campbell and I am from Rockingham, NC. I took
the photos I am e-mailing you. I took the pictures when I went to see
my Uncle in Cairo Egypt a few months ago. One is of The Nile, which I
call "The Nightly Nile" because I took it as the sun was going down. One
photo is of my uncle, who is also from Rockingham.(

mail telling about his history. The e-mail he sent is below. Please feel
free to use anything I am sending you on your web page.
