It is a rare community in this part of Pennsylvania that does not have a little league baseball field. This is the first year kids this age have had to face player pitchers. It makes for a lot of walks, hit batsmen and once in a while the ball gets hit. At any rate little league is a community building experience, if it's done well and with the kids development as the top priority.

Silverdale Community Park once the Silverdale Colliery Site. After closure a hugh area of land was stripped mined for the coal Afterwards it was landscaped into a nature reserve, sport fields and park with walkways and fishing also other land was used for housing.
Carlisle City Centre, Sunday 5 December 2021. A photo processed using the same parameters as my Van Gogh Peasant Woman analysis. S'amazing what a difference the original source material makes.

We noticed on this journey that the retraction in attendances at Christian churches has left many small communities with a surfeit of church buildings but a sad loss of congregants. So, many small towns were concentrating their worship in one facility under the banner of a Community Church. The sign says St. John's is actually part of the Baptist Church. I thought the design was rather interesting and the whole place was very nicely looked after. Rosedale, Queensland.
This is the North Hills Estates in Ross Township, PA. It's just a few miles north of Pittsburgh. It's one of my favorite communities in the area. I love how it's somewhere between urban and suburban and it has a nice community feel.
Rogozhskaya Sloboda is a historical district of Moscow that emerged in the late 16th century. Old-rite merchant families traditionally settled there and the district became the spiritual centre for Moscow’s old believers’ community.
Thermophilic communities are as diverse as the communities that humans live in. Community formations, colors, and locations vary depending on the types of microbes, the pH, and the temperature of their environments.
Millions of individual microbes can connect into long strands called filaments. Some bacteria and algae form thin and delicate structures in fast moving water such as the runoff channels of hot springs and geysers. Other microbes form thick, sturdy structures in slower water or where chemical precipitates quickly coat their filaments.
A bacterium called Thermocrinis forms structures and grows by eating hydrogen gas or sulfur compounds. Its filaments entwine, forming mats. Flowing water carries other microbes, organic matter, and minerals that become caught in the streamers and add to the mat.
Photosynthetic activity of Cyanobacteria such as Lyptolyngbya form columns or pedestals. Oxygen bubbles rise in the mat, forcing the microbes upward. The higher formations capture more organic matter and sediment than the lower mats, which help build the columns. Called stromatolites or microbialites, these structures are similar to ancient microbial communities preserved in formations (dated to >3.0 billion years old) around the world.
Mats can be as thin as tissue paper or as thick as lasagna. Multiple layers of microorganisms make up inch-thick mats. Dozens of types of microbes from all three domains can exist in these layers. Each layer is a community, and each layer interacts with the other layers, forming a complex, larger ecosystem full of millions of microorganisms and their life processes.

Community First Responders are fully trained volunteers who attend 999 emergency calls in their own community. In the East Midlands, Community First Responders are dispatched by the EMAS (East Midlands Ambulance Service) Emergency Operations Centre in the same way as ambulances.
Because Community First Responders live in the local community, they can often arrive at the scene of the emergency much faster than an ambulance. If they arrive first on scene, Community First Responders can provide assessment and treatment for the patient before the arrival of the ambulance.
They don’t operate with Blue Lights and have to obey all the usual traffic regulations!

We had a nice day trip to Stevens Canyon on the southeast side of Mt Rainier last week with beautiful fall weather and no crowds. Stopped at different elevations here and there to check out plants, lichens, geology etc. Opposite a pullout well below the transition to subalpine was a large andesite outcrop almost completely covered with a thick mossy layer. Looking at my photo later at home the diversity of the bryophyte and lichen community was surprising. (As often happens had I realized at the time what was there I would have photographed differently. When making the photo I was concentrating on aesthetics, and time limitations.) Bryophyte and lichen species are difficult to identify from photos without specimens but but did my best (and waiting for suggestions from some bryological friends).
