Many viewers have commented that The Guardian Building (originally The Union Trust Company Building) reminded them of a church.
This picture shows approximately half of the bank lobby on the main floor. Imagine the original bank building with 60-90 bank teller cages lining the entire length of both sides of this "nave". The ceiling was composed of a 3/4 inch (1.9cm) of horsehair and coated with a layer of plaster cement. Then, a canvas layer was applied, and painted with designs reminiscent of the patterns of Navajo rugs. This was a sound-deadening system.
The "altar piece" ( I suppose) was the three-story mural of the map of the lower peninsula of Michigan. Highlighted were the major Michigan moneymakers of the1890s to 1920s: mining, manufacturing, lumber, fishing, commerce, and agriculture. It was completed in 1929, unfortunately the year of the beginning of "The Great Depression".
This superbly decorated Art-Deco bank building was nicknamed "The Cathedral of Finance." So, if the earlier pictures reminded you of a church (reprised in the first comment below) --you were very observant : -)

The Monostor Fortress - the largest modern fortress in Central Europe - was built between 1850 and 1871. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the neoclassical military monument is a fascinating sight with its huge walls of precisely hewn stone, the 3-4 metre thick earthen ramparts covering the defences and its network of underground passages (kazamata) several kilometres long.
Its monumental dimensions are evidenced by the following figures: The fortress covers 25 hectares, the total area including the firing ranges is 70 hectares, the floor area of the buildings is 25 680 m2 and the number of rooms is 640.
After the fortress was built, it served generations of soldiers of the Hungarian Defence Forces. Its tasks included the defence of the central fortress (North - Komárom) and the control of shipping on the Danube. It was never used in combat and served mainly as a training centre and weapons depot. During the First World War it was used as a conscription and training centre. During the Second World War, the 22nd Infantry Regiment had its headquarters at Fort Monostor, and the soldiers of the 1st and 2nd Infantry Regiments were stationed there. After the Second World War.
Between 1945 and 1990, the Red Army's Army Group South set up the largest ammunition depot in Central Europe in the fort. With their withdrawal, the military function of the fortress ended forever.
Today the fort is a popular destination with a military history exhibition, Cold War vehicles, a bread museum, a boat exhibition and numerous events.

On Sunday, we climbed one of the high peaks in the Catskills...The elevation of this mountain is about 3,610ft. The hike itself is not a long one round trip, but a very steep ascent & descent. Only about 3-4" at the lower elevations, but once above 3,500 ft. just breathtaking scenery...Please scroll down for a few more photos...:).
Die Ed 3/4 Nr. 2 ist mit dem C16, Bi, ADBi und K2 unterwegs von Sumiswald/Grünen nach Huttwil. In der Steigung zwischen Gammenthal und Griesbach konnte das schöne Züglein schnaufend und rauchend im Bild festgehalten werden.

Letzten Sommer zog es mich im Elbtal, da teilweise 3-4 Trabbis auf der großen S1 mitmischen sollten.
So auch 143 647, welche sogar einen DBuza in ihrem Park eingereiht hatte. Die Garnitur konnte am vorletzten Halt ihrer Reise nach Schöna in Schmilka-Hirschmühle eingefangen werden.
Disclaimer: Ein Grafitto auf dem DBuza wurde digital vernichtet.

Ésta es la tercera de una serie de cuatro fotos, después de 1/4 SOUFFRIR, 2/S'OUVRIR.
Porqué al fin y al cabo, tu eres una semilla. Y la semilla que se queda sumergida en un lago de lágrimas acabará pudriéndose. De hecho, una semilla necesita muy poco para germinar y dar vida a flores y frutos: un poco de agua, un poco de luz, un poco de aire. La tierra la tienes ya en tí, es donde están tus raíces, que desde tu niñez plantaron los que te querían y que ya no son. Así que por devastado que esté el terreno, deja germinar esta semilla de amor para que cumpla su destino, el volver a nacer una y otra vez y continuar esa cadena amorosa. Por miedo que te de a qué te pisen o te hieren, continua ofreciendo lo que llevas dentro, entrégate a la vida, y recuerda que lo que das a lo demás, también es un regalo que te haces a ti misma.
This is the third photo of a serie of 4, after 1/4 SOUFFRIR, 2/S'OUVRIR.
Anyway, you are a seed. The seeds that remains immersed in a lake of tears will actually become rotten. In fact, a seed needs so few things to germinate and give birth to flowers and fruits: a little water, a little light, a little air. Earth is already within you, here are you roots, planted when you were a child by the persons who loved you so much and are not there anymore. So, however devastated the land may be, let this love seed germinate so that its fulfils its destiny, achieving the cycle of life to carry on building this chain of love. Despite your fear to be trampled or hurt again, go on offering what you bear inside yourself, pour your heart into life, as what you offer to others is also a present you offer to yourself.
Here's another view of that 1965 Ford Styleside pickup that was parked at our local grocery store.
The F-250 was rated at 3/4 ton. Model year 1965 was the first with Ford’s ‘Twin-I-Beam’ front suspension on 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton 2 wheel drive trucks
An emblem for a V-8 engine appears on the hood.
The license plate has been altered for privacy.
Happy Truck Thursday!
I had thought of naming this 'Mother and Daughter' but they are both the smallest blooms in the pot. The larger one is 3/4" and the smaller 1/4". So it's more like big and little sister.
This was taken using my crop sensor 7D in order to get even closer than my full frame 6D, and 3 images were also stacked to improve the focus.
