In September 1978, while the country was still accessible to tourists, I left with a small group for Afghanistan. At an altitude of 1900 m and far from any agglomeration, in a steep valley at the confluence of the rivers Hari-rud and Jam, I found myself in front of the splendid minaret of Jam. 65 meters high, it is entirely covered with a geometrical decoration in relief with a kufic inscription in turquoise tiles. It would have been built in 1194 by the great Ghurid sultan Ghiyas-od-din (1153-1203).
Since 2002, it is registered by UNESCO on the list of the world heritage in danger. Scientists have not had access to it since 2010.
Courant septembre 1978, alors que le pays était encore accessible aux touristes, je suis parti, avec un petit groupe pour l'Afghanistan. A 1 900 m d'altitude et loin de toute agglomération, dans une vallée escarpée au confluent des rivières Hari-rud et Jam, je me suis retrouvé devant le splendide minaret de Jam. Haut de 65 mètres, il est entièrement recouvert d'un décor géométrique en relief agrémenté d'une inscription coufique en tuiles turquoises. Il aurait été construit en 1194 par le grand sultan ghuride Ghiyas-od-din (1153-1203).
Depuis 2002, il est inscrit par l'UNESCO sur la liste du patrimoine mondial en péril. Les scientifiques n'y ont plus accès dépuis 2010.

Here's the other 504 which i thought i recognised, this was last MOT'd in 2016 and i had seen it locally to me in 2015 when it was in pretty decent condition, once again its taxed but obviously has been laid up for a bit.
Friday Flashback.
With my sister's Triumph TR6 Spitfire. The view is probably the Blackwater River canyon, in or near the Monongahela National Forest.
It was an amazing car to drive the mountain roads of W.Va.

Mallemoisson (04), France.
On my way back from the French Riviera I came across a field of classic cars. Even though it looks like the cars have been spending some times in the field, the garage is brand new.
One year ago, there was not a single car to be found on this field!
I got the opportunity to photograph freely. There were some amazing cars.
In Canada, the Caravelle first appeared for the 1978 model year as a version of the Dodge Diplomat for Canadian Chrysler-Plymouth dealers. As all Chrysler Canada dealers sold Chryslers, only the top-of-the-line LeBaron was sold in Canada, and the Diplomat and Caravelle did not offer the top line models.
The top of the range Caravalle was approximately $670 cheaper than the LeBaron. In 1983, Chrysler Canada added the E-body version of the Dodge 600, also offering it as a Plymouth Caravelle. The rear wheel drive Caravelle then became the Caravelle Salon, rather than taking the American "Gran Fury" name.
The coupe was dropped after 1986 while sedan production came to an end in 1988.

Blue skies finally poked through the clouds today. This is a picture I've wanted for a while but resisted taking so I could get a blue sky. This is the Edwin A. Ulrich Museum of Art at Wichita State University.
