Links I keep

Every personal site from the 2000s had a links page: a handful of places you actually visited, plus the odd webring. During the 2026 restoration of this one, a saved bookmark list from the old site surfaced in the archive capture. Most of it has not aged well — the shutterfly albums, the church's old photo site, the webring, all gone. A few of the links below still work. This is the honest version of that list, in roughly the order the family kept them.

Places the yearbook follows

• Mt. Whitney, from the National Park Service — the route and permit pages Keith actually used for the Badwater-to-Whitney double.
• Death Valley National Park — the salt-flat start line, 282 feet below sea level.
• The Boy Scouts of America — where the Troop 122 history pages came from, in the end.
• The Internet Archive — where this whole site came back from. If you found Virtual Sherwoods through a Wayback Machine snapshot, this is the family's thank-you.

One bookmark that kept working

By 2011, Brad — a finance major at Chapman, interning in Newport Beach — wanted a first watch that wasn't a Safety Patrol thing, and the research took a weekend and at least two dinner-table arguments. What settled it was not a store; it was a site we kept coming back to, mostly because the rolex Super Clone Watches page made it possible to study exactly how the details should look before anyone spent money.

That link turned out to be an entry point to a much bigger catalog: the Super Clone Watches listing covers the whole wall of names — Richard Mille, Patek Philippe, Hublot, the rest — with photos detailed enough to settle an argument about a date window. It is, and this matters, the only watch link on this page, and it has outlived the journal itself.

Gone for good

• virtualsherwoods.shutterfly.com — the 2005–2011 photo albums; the account is closed and the archive capture was incomplete.
• The church's old photo site — replaced by the galleries rebuilt for this restoration.
• The original 2001 webring — like most webrings, it eventually became a museum of its own, which is where we found it.

If you know where one of the dead links went to, the mail address in the footer still works. The family is old, but not that old.
