various visuals done during the last decade.

some were printed, some were not and some will probably...

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?

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.

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.

Good view of part of the CCC-built guardrail in Gooseberry Falls State Park on Lake Superior's North Shore in Castle Danger, north of Two Harbors, Minnesota..

 

The guardrail originally consisted of 20 stone piers connected by heavy chains. I think that all of the piers are still there, but at least one has been moved for whatever reason and there is at least one chain missing.

 

The stone pier guardrail is an unique and iconic part of the park. I am hoping that they will eventually restore it to CCC standards.

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!

Me: Are you spying on the neighbors again?

Quinne: Yea! I'm trying out these new high tech binoculars I bought.

Me: What's in your backpack?

Quinne: Spying supplies.

Me: What are spying supplies?

Quinne: Shhhhh, I'm busy and you're loud!

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.

Orcs are gathering their forces in the Shadow mountains for the final strike. The last war between the darkness and the light is coming...

 

My first entry into the Collosal Castle Contest. Category: Castle vignette.

It's one of two 8x8 vigs I will post this year. There will be a bigger build as well. ;)

 

Also, I'm having trouble with submitting my entry on official CCC page, is there any different way to do it?
