This is in Lacey-Keosaqua State Park where we spent a pleasant afternoon yesterday walking the wooded trails. This is the second oldest state park in Iowa and in the 1930's the Civilian Conservation Corps built a number of stone structures here including this bridge.
Wide look at the Highway Concourse & Retaining Wall (now affectionately known as the "Castle") at Gooseberry Falls State Park.
The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) built this, and other major and minor park features in the 1930's as part of the New Deal that was designed to get men back to work during the Great Depression.
Gooseberry Falls State Park is located in Castle Danger, north of Two Harbors, Minnesota on Scenic Highway 61.
The geologic wonder that is the North Unit of the Theodore Roosevelt National Park, framed with the windowed CCC Shelter built high up on a bluff. The CCC used materials on hand...any question where they got this fieldstone?
Taken about 1½ months ago in Lacey Keosaqua State Park, one of Iowa's oldest parks. A close look will show the bridge has been reinforced at some point in its history.
Been off for a while visiting family and dodging snowstorms. Will try to get caught up viewing and commenting.
A close up image of the exterior siding on a cabin built by the Civil Conservation Corps (CCC) circa 1935. Saw marks are visible on the wood which was cut and milled on site. The cabins are now part of Raccoon State Park and some are still in use today.

Chinese Cultural Centre
The Calgary Chinese Cultural Centre is a special community centre for the Community of Chinatown, the Chinese community and the citizens of Calgary. Its objectives are to serve as a community centre and hub for Calgarians to meet and socialize.
The centre piece of the complex is the Dr. Henry Fok Cultural Hall, a building modeled after the Hall of Prayers of the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. The 21 m high ceiling is decorated with 561 dragons and 40 phoenixes. It is supported by 4 columns with gold ornamentation representing each season. The outer surface of the dome is covered in blue tiles imported from China and crafted by the same company that endowed the Temple of Heaven during the Ming Dynasty 600 years ago.

Hey all of you!
After Vignweek, the CCC arrived! As I think there are some lovely categories, I wanted to build an entry in some of them.
So I start off with the Desert Bandits category as I really like that category!
So here it is, The Fallen Temple. The bas of the temple is tilted in two directions: Leaning forward and to the right.
I hope you like this build and be ready for some more entries over the next two months!

Hey all!
At first I want to wish you all the best for 2018!
Here's my 5th entry in the CCC, category fantasy fortress!
As I see myself as a fantasy-castle builder, I just couldnt resist getting an entry in for this category.
I went for quite a new concept(or at least, I havent seen this done before), and I think it turned out pretty good...
I didnt make any story or background for this build, as I want this fantasy fortress be open to your own imagination...
Thanks a lot for looking, and come back tomorrow for better photo's of my 6th and final entry...

Looking over a CCC-built stone and log picnic table at the stone pier and chain guardrail that was made at Gooseberry Falls State Park in the 1930's.
The park is located in Castle Danger, Minnesota (north of Two Harbors) on Lake Superior's North Shore.
Voila, and here it is! My masterpiece of the year! An entry in the Haunted Inn Category of the Classic Castle Contest.
Approximately a month of building time and several different versions (I scrapped an entire landscape).
You will doubtless see this build in some of the various RPGs I am a part of, and it will also be posted on my Facebook (Please go check me out there!).
The street was a last minute addition due to much helpful advice which I conveniently ignored for several weeks. C&C appreciated!
