They were K-5 and 16-50.  On flickr, if you look on the right side, it'll say 
taken by Pentax K-5, if you click on that, it'll show the exif data.

Not here.  In 1983 there was a log jam a bit over a mile south of us, and the 
river came within a couple feet of our back yard.  In 1995 it came up to about 
5 or 6 feet below.

> Felton area?

Yes.  The bridge in some of the photos is the southern of the "twin bridges" 
and is the border between Felton and Ben Lomond.
