The morning visit to Gainsborough's House on Gainsborough Street in Sudbury.
Thomas Gainsborough the painter was born in this house now a museum / art gallery. The museum will close in Autumn 2019 until 2021 for a refurbishment programme.
Thomas Gainsborough (1727-88) was born in Sudbury and was baptized at the Independent Meeting-House in Friars Street on 14 May 1727, the fifth son and ninth child of John and Mary Gainsborough and in 1958 Gainsborough’s House Society was formed to purchase the house and establish it as a centre for Thomas Gainsborough. The Museum opened to the public in 1961 and has remained open ever since, operating as an independent charitable trust. The beautiful garden is at the heart of Gainsborough’s House. It is maintained by a devoted body of volunteers who cultivate exclusively plants that were available in Gainsborough’s lifetime.
Gainsborough's House is the birthplace of the leading English painter Thomas Gainsborough. It is now a museum and gallery, located at 46 Gainsborough Street in Sudbury, Suffolk, England. Some of the pictures on display have been acquired with the help of the Art Fund.
The house is now 46 Gainsborough Street and dates back to around 1520. Thomas Gainsborough's parents, John and Mary Gainsborough, probably moved here in 1722 and the artist Thomas Gainsborough was born five years later. Thomas Gainsborough, the youngest of John and Mary's nine children, lived in the house and attended Sudbury Grammar School. At 13 he went to London to further his studies training with the French painter and illustrator, Hubert-Francois Gravelot.
The house remained as a private residence until 1920, after which time it had various functions including a guest house and antique shop. In 1958, Gainsborough's House Society was formed to purchase the house and establish it as a museum and monument to Thomas Gainsborough. The museum opened to the public in 1961.

El milano real es una de las rapaces más frecuentes en Europa; similar en aspecto al milano negro, es inconfundible su cabeza de color gris plateado y su silueta.
Los ejemplares que anidan en el Norte de Europa se desplazan al sur para invernar; algunos de ellos atravesarán el Estrecho hasta llegar al Norte de África. Su distribución llega hasta Canarias y las Islas de Cabo Verde. Caza aves y pequeños mamíferos, como liebres o ratas, también se alimenta de pájaros e invertebrados; incluso puede devorar carroña. Suele anidar en los árboles, donde confecciona un nido a base de ramas y hojas. La puesta consiste en un número que oscila, desde un solo huevo, hasta tres; tardarán en eclosionar unos treinta y cinco días aproximadamente. El macho suele reemplazar a la hembra en la incubación por pocos periodos de tiempo, mientras ésta se alimenta. Si se acerca un peligro la hembra lanza una señal al polluelo que se hace el muerto. Se ha comprobado que los zorros lo creen muertos de verdad y se marchan pensando que podrán volver para devorarlos más tarde.
The Red Kite is one bird of prey more frequent in Europe; similar in aspect to the Black Kite, is unmistakable its head of silver-plated gray color and its silhouette. Those that nest in the North of Europe move to the south to hibernate; some of them will cross Gibraltar until arriving at North Africa. Its distribution arrives until the Canary Islands and the Cape Verde Islands. Hunting birds and small mammals, like hares or rats, also feeds on birds and invertebrates; it even can devour carrion. Usually nests in the trees, where it makes a nest with branches and leaves. The putting consists of a number that oscillates from a single egg to three; they will take to born about thirtyfive days more or less. The male usually replaces to the female in the incubation by few periods of time, while she is fed.
At signs of danger a mother will signal the young who will "play dead" to the extent that a fox will believe them to be dead and leave them, thinking it can return to eat them later.

Showing upward regeneration of predominantly Scots Pine. In the centre of the view in woodland compartments from which planted conifers were removed over a decade ago bleached snags of formerly shaded out Scots pine are visible.There has been heartening recovery of more natural forest in these compartments. This followed removal of the densely planted conifers (especially the non native Sitka spruce Picea sitchensis). More intensive deer management has proved successful in reducing grazing pressure that when too high can prevent tree regeneration. The pattern of the vegetation still betrays the edge of the now long removed deer fence. The more natural looking woodland at the right in the middle distance is on ground outside the former fence. On ground considered topographically challenging and impractical for intensive forestry at the time this area was once the subject of a nature reserve lease. The Scottish Wildlife Trust (SWT). Pass of Ryvoan Nature Reserve agreement terminated years ago. The Ryvoan reserve still retains the distinction of having been the only SWT Reserve ever to have existed in the district of Badenoch & Strathspey. Pressures to fence fertilise and plant trees in the Pass were resisted allowing it to provide an admirable model of native woodland restoration that was to a degree followed in the remainder of Glenmore forest. After a policy shift towards more conservation friendly management Glenmore Forest has been significantly restructured to favour native Scots pine and remove planted non native conifers. A FC report 'New Dawn for Native Woodland on the Forestry Commission Estate in Scotland' bnb.data.bl.uk/doc/resource/012953751 describes the programme introduced for restoring native woodland on state owned forest that "from a modest start in the mid 1980's" gained "significant momentum in the early 1990s" and involved key site like Glenmore. Glemore was declared the first Forestry Commission Caledonian Forest Reserve. Following the recogntion of Caledonian pinewood as a priority habitat in Europe parts of Glenmore went on to receive significant conservation designations. One of the internationally designated interests at Glenmore is the Annex 1 capercaillie Tetrao urogallus (a woodland grouse that is on the UK red list of Birds of High Conservation concern). State owned forests in Strathspey are significant to the future of this bird in Scotland (See eg scotland.forestry.gov.uk/managing/work-on-scotlands-natio... )
This view shows a line of a waymarked path into the much admired natural forest of the Pass. There is painstakingly gathered evidence,that capercaillie avoid well used tracks. Some of this comes from looking at signs left by capercaillie including in parts of Glenmore Forest. In neighbouring Abernethy Forest owned and managed by RSPB there has been reinstatement of tracks that has reduced such habitat loss for capercaillie. In Glenmore Forest there has been an escalation of recreational pressures & built development with ecological impacts that include direct habitat loss. Areas of obvious human disturbance include some of the shores of L Morlich, Glenmore itself, the grounds of Glenmore Lodge and the controversial expanding Badaguish development. Current sentiment and resource allocation can be viewed as in serious respects bad news for conservation interests in the Glenmore corridor. Failure to enforce planning conditions meant to help safeguard conservation interests and attached to permission for new development illustrate problems with current stewardship.

Behold the Bamboodu Theater -- a portable puppet show for political rallies, civic events and art shows.
I created this street theater experience to engage people of all ages to help change the world through civic action.
Our first scene features Lady Liberty and Mr. Trump, illustrating the eternal fight between hope and fear through animated puppets, visual gags, news tickers and music, powered by Arduino.
The Bamboodu Theater will be on exhibit at Artworks Downtown in San Rafael from April 14 to 28. We also plan to show it at the Tax March in San Francisco on April 15, at Marinovators in the College of Marin on April 22, at the Climate March on April 29 and the Mill Valley Memorial Day Parade on May 30.
I’m very grateful to all the gracious collaborators who helped me create the Bamboodu Theater: Edward Janne, Phyllis Florin, Mark Petrakis, Geo Monley, Jean Bolte and our friends at Pataphysical Studios. Special thanks to Angelique Benicio for inviting us to premiere it at Signs of Hope, her political art show at Artworks Downtown in San Rafael.

Taken in 2008.
A woman under a parasol at sign-in table at the August Moon Festival in Boston's Chinatown.
After yesterday's meet-up at Sign Hill in South Francisco, one of my fellow Meet-upsters headed toward the Golden Gate Bridge with the plan that she would drop me off on her way back to Mill Valley, Since my little excursion to the bridge the other night, I have been wanting to go back with my tripod and full complement of lenses for some night shots.
However, despite that it had been a beautifully sunny day, it was getting colder as daylight was drawing to a close and—with a pretty stiff breeze all day long—I expected it wouldn't be a particularly enjoyable experience taking pictures under those conditions. My ride, Kate, was hungry, so I suggested that we just stop somewhere. As we headed up 19th Avenue towards the bridge, I nominated Java Beach Café and within a few minutes, we were ordering our food.
The place was packed, but we managed to find a table where typically there is a dude singing mostly '60s and '70s cover songs. While we were waiting for our sandwiches, a trio of people next to us left, so we scooted over to take that spot, and another group sat down on the other side of the table we'd just vacated.
As I was about to get up to use the bathroom, I noticed the man to my left with a growing smile on his face and glint in his eye as he looked at the Rolleicord, which (ever conveniently) was sitting on our table. I could see what he was thinking, and soon he made a remark about his father having had a camera like it. Almost immediately, I immediately told him of my rule and with barely another word spoken, I framed him up, warned him that the shot was likely to be a tad blurry because of the dim light and tripped the shutter. I gave him my card and headed to the bathroom. I regret that I didn't take the time to speak with him a bit more when I returned.
Oh, and... I love the smile on the guy in the background.

Beginning in 1860 the Pony Express operated like a giant relay race between the Missouri River and the Pacific Coast. Along the Oregon Trail, through Forts Laramie and Bridger, around the Great Salt Lake, riders carried the mail through a wilderness infested with hostile tribes. Their mounts were Indian ponies, nearly 500 altogether, kept in relay stations 15 miles apart.
The Hollenberg or Cottonwood Ranch House , built in 1857, is said to be the only original and unaltered Pony Express Station still in existence. At every few stations, like this one, a new rider took over. Day and night, summer and winter, over sun-baked plains and icy mountain trails, the schedule was maintained. After only 18 months, and with a remarkable record of only one mail loss, the Pony Express was replaced by the trans-continental telegraph line. A brief but romantic page of American history became the victim of modern technology.
Near the Hollenberg Station is a new Visitor Center with interpretative exhibits, operated by the Kansas State Historical Site. It is also a part of the Pony Express National Historic Trail, and has been designated a National Historic Landmark.

NAME
cowsay/cowthink - configurable speaking/thinking cow (and a bit more)
SYNOPSIS
cowsay [-e eye_string] [-f cowfile] [-h] [-l] [-n] [-T
tongue_string] [-W column] [-bdgpstwy]
DESCRIPTION
Cowsay generates an ASCII picture of a cow saying something
provided by the user. If run with no arguments, it accepts standard
input, word-wraps the message given at about 40 columns, and prints
the cow saying the given message on
standard output.
To aid in the use of arbitrary messages with arbitrary
whitespace, use the -n option. If it is specified, the given message
will not be word-wrapped. This is possibly useful if you want to make
the cow think or speak in figlet(6). If
-n is specified, there must not be any command-line arguments
left after all the switches have been processed.
The -W specifies roughly (where the message should be wrapped.
The default is equivalent to -W 40 i.e. wrap words at or before the
40th column.
If any command-line arguments are left over after all switches
have been processed, they become the cow's message. The program will
not accept standard input for a message in this case.
There are several provided modes which change the
appearance of the cow depending on its particular emotional/physical
state. The -b option initiates Borg mode; -d causes the cow to appear
dead; -g invokes greedy mode; -p causes a
state of paranoia to come over the cow; -s makes the cow appear
thoroughly stoned; -t yields a tired cow; -w is somewhat the opposite
of -t, and initiates wired mode; -y brings on the cow's youthful
appearance.
The user may specify the -e option to select the appearance of
the cow's eyes, in which case the first two characters of the argument
string eye_string will be used. The default eyes are 'oo'. The
tongue is similarly configurable
through -T and tongue_string; it must be two characters and
does not appear by default. However, it does appear in the 'dead' and
'stoned' modes. Any configuration done by -e and -T will be lost if
one of the provided modes is used.
The -f option specifies a particular cow picture file
(``cowfile'') to use. If the cowfile spec contains '/' then it will
be interpreted as a path relative to the current directory.
Otherwise, cowsay will search the path specified in
the COWPATH environment variable. To list all cowfiles on the
current COWPATH, invoke cowsay with the -l switch.
If the program is invoked as cowthink then the cow will think
its message instead of saying it.
COWFILE FORMAT
A cowfile is made up of a simple block of perl(1) code, which
assigns a picture of a cow to the variable $the_cow. Should you wish
to customize the eyes or the tongue of the cow, then the variables
$eyes and $tongue may be used. The
trail leading up to the cow's message balloon is
composed of the character(s) in the $thoughts variable. Any
backslashes must be reduplicated to prevent interpolation. The name
of a cowfile should end with .cow, otherwise it is
assumed not to be a cowfile. Also, at-signs (``@'') must be
backslashed because that is what Perl 5 expects.
COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER VERSIONS
What older versions? :-)
Version 3.x is fully backward-compatible with 2.x versions. If
you're still using a 1.x version, consider upgrading. And tell me
where you got the older versions, since I didn't exactly put them up
for world-wide access.
Oh, just so you know, this manual page documents version 3.02 of cowsay.
ENVIRONMENT
The COWPATH environment variable, if present, will be used to
search for cowfiles. It contains a colon-separated list of
directories, much like PATH or MANPATH. It should always contain the
/usr/local/share/cows directory, or at least
a directory with a file called default.cow in it.
FILES
/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_cowsay/work/destroot/opt/local/share/cows
holds a sample set of cowfiles. If your COWPATH is not explicitly
set, it automatically
contains this directory.
