Up early to catch the sunrise on Saturday, but the weather wasn't playing kind, so settled in to shoot a few long exposures of the waves against the breakwater at Haumoana.
Managed to surprise a sleeping seal when I arrived, and then a while later a pod of dolphins cruised along the shore chasing some breakfast. So all in all not a bad morning to be up early.

Looking upwards at "The Tallest Block on the Planet". These supertalls are currently under construction and will be, once completed, among the tallest buildings in the world ranging from 80 to 120 floors each.

Self unloader Joseph L. block owned by Cleveland Cliffs is well into unloading ore at Cleveland's Bulk Terminal on November 2, 2024. It was built in 1975 and has kept that name for it's whole career. It's somewhat rare for a laker to dock at CBT headed west. They more often back in. The newest addition to Cleveland's skyline is the Sherwin Williams headquarters just to the left of the Terminal Tower. Cleveland's House of Pain now known as Huntington Bank Field sits on the far left. This could become a historic photo if the Brown's owners make good on their plan to move off of the lakefront into the suburbs.
This is the first block I received in a round robin. I hope Jane likes what I did and yes I did the tatting.
The lid to these blocks has a note from my mom stating that the Benton children played with these blocks in 1870 and they have been passed along in the family ever since. I'm not sure exactly when I inherited them but I love them and keep them on display. When I take pictures of children I like to go for a vintage look and give these to children to play with. I think it's interesting that there are blocks with Roman Numerals. I don't think you could find children's blocks with those today. :)
More log cabin play--I went with primaries this time, and a mix of prints and solids. I'm thinking this is going to morph into a small blanket or play mat for a friend's new baby.
Música, conversaciones, gritos y risas de vecinos que se conocen de toda la vida, abundaban en los blocks de la Fundiyork.
Mientras los niños jugaban frente a los bloques, las copuchas eran pan de cada día, al igual que el pan amasado que salía calentito del horno comunitario.
Algunos viejos se fumaban un puchito recordando los tiempos en la mina, mientras que los más jóvenes jugaban sus partidos en la cancha del club deportivo Cristóbal Colón, mientras que los gatos observaban desde lo alto todo el panorama, paseándose entre las barandas, pasillos y escaleras del block.
Así era el día a día en uno de los tantos blocks de la Fundi, llena de risas y peleas, de gente muy seria pero cariñosa y de gatos que miraban todo desde lo alto.
The West Block
“In 1859, architects Thomas Stent and Augustus Laver designed the West Block in a Gothic Revival style. It was designated a Classified federal heritage building in 1987 for its important historical associations, architectural quality and environmental impact.
Designed to accommodate the federal civil service, as more space was required the two large additions were built: the Mackenzie Wing and Tower in 1878 and the Laurier Tower and Link in 1906.
The West Block, with the Centre and East Blocks, makes up the core of Canada’s Parliamentary Precinct. Commanding the western side of Parliament Hill, the West Block was built in three phases starting in 1859, and opened in 1866. The West Block was completed in 1909 by the Department of Public Works (now Public Services and Procurement Canada).
It encompasses:
* the South and East Wings, built from 1859 to 1865
* the Northwest Wing, built from 1875 to 1879
* the North Wing, built from 1906 to 1909
Today, we are at the end of a major project that has both restored the West Block to its original glory and equipped it for the needs of a 20th century Parliament. It now plays host to Canada’s members of Parliament in its. interim House of Commons Chamber, a soaring, glass-roofed structure, built into the central courtyard at the heart of the building.
Since 2011, work has been carried out to repair and modernize the building at a cost of $863 million (excluding Harmonized Sales Tax). The project has brought West Block up to standard and has ensured it will meet the current and future needs of Parliament while preserving its heritage characteristics for the next 150 years.”
