Modern mechanized hay production today is usually performed by a number of machines. While small operations use a tractor to pull various implements for mowing and raking, larger operations use specialized machines such as a mower or a swather, which are designed to cut the hay and arrange it into a windrow in one step. Balers are usually pulled by a tractor, with larger balers requiring more powerful tractors.

 

Mobile balers, machines which gather and bale hay in one process, were first developed around 1940. The first balers produced rectangular bales small enough for a person to lift, usually between 70 and 100 pounds (32 and 45 kg) each. The size and shape made it possible for people to pick bales up, stack them on a vehicle for transport to a storage area, then build a haystack by hand. However, to save labor and increase safety, loaders and stackers were also developed to mechanise the transport of small bales from the field to the haystack. Later in the 20th century, balers were developed capable of producing large bales that weigh up to 3,000 pounds (1,400 kg

A friday morning , Le Tampon Reunion Island

The castle was built between 1350 and 1375. In 1534 Renswoude was recognised as a knight royal residence. In 1623 castle Borchwal already expire as Johan van Reede become the owner . This Calvinistic priest finds a church more important than the rebuilding, of his own castle. In the house, on its property where Protestant meetinings kept, the house become much too small. He gets authorisation to build its own church near the castle. This fine cupola church was taken in 1641 in use. Then late Johan van Reede demolishes in 1654 the old castle and build the new, current castle.

The castle park developed itself as from that time slowly in a baroque park, with a straight alley pattern. In 1682 Johan are succeeded by his third zoon, Frederik Adriaan. He was married with Maria Duyst van Voorhout. During the absence of her man she let dig now the Grand still existing canal, compared with the castle alley. Because of this big work, much unemployed persons could helped with the work. But it had been especially intended as a surprise for her man, They are Versailles lgarden overs in that time, so they build there own French garden. On 28 November 1985 there was a big fire on the castle. The fire made a damage of millions of guldens. All the next day, they started with setting up wharf and rebuild the damage. This was reached by the energy of the current owner, baron Taets van Amerongen. In the meantime the castle has been restored entirely. For groups the castle be visit.

Schevichoven means Flax farm and the first mention of this farmhouse dates from the end of the 14th century. In the course of history changed the complex often of owner. So made it part of the estate until 1954 broekhuizen. From 1954 to 1981 it got a function as the Central experimental farm Fodder Institute and from 1981 is a private farm. To the complex include a farm, a hunting lodge a sheepfold and a beautiful pigeon Tower. The current farmhouse dates back to 1911, between 1983 and 1985 the sheepfold is completely renewed and the pigeon Tower is the oldest part of the complex; dating back to the 17th century

Actually not found exactly there but right underneath. Still like it.

Inside Covid hotspots in Delhi, the buildings are packed like sardines in a can. Access to sunlight and a cuppa is to climb through labyrinthine passages and stairs to the terraces of tottering structures.

The Alhambra at sunset. An absolutely amazing place that has a drawback: it does close early in the afternoon so if you want to shoot a sunset there, you have to go in winter and hide a bit from the security staff as I did until they saw and I had to leave with a promising blue hour ahead!

Historical country house also to be opened to the public

As of 1 September, the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam will be using the historical country house, Trompenburg, as an extra location. Trompenburg, which is close to Hilversum, was built after 1677 by Admiral Cornelis Tromp (1621-1691), the son of the legendary Admiral Maarten Harpertsz Tromp. The residence, that was built to resemble a ship, will be open for use by the Rijksmuseum from 1 April to 1 October for holding lectures, small conferences and small-scale exhibitions. In addition, Trompenburg will also be opened to the public a few times each year.

 

A monument for the Tromp family

Throughout the years, Trompenburg House has been a home to different families, and has been in the care of the Government Buildings Agency as a monument since 1938. Cornelis Tromp, who was the commander-in-chief of the Dutch and Danish fleet, built Trompenburg as a monument for himself and his ancestors, his father in particular. The Tromp family's glory is the theme of the dome hall - which can be seen as the maritime answer to the Oranjezaal, the central chamber in Huis ten Bosch Palace. The dome hall contains the portraits of father and son Tromp and both their wives, portraits of the ships and the naval battles.

 

Decoration and exhibitions

Trompenburg will not be used for large exhibitions, as the country residence is too small. However, the Rijksmuseum is considering whether the house could be decorated with art works on a limited scale. Where possible, any art work that is selected will be in keeping with the themes of life on a 17th Century country estate and the maritime history of the period of 1630 and 1690.

 

Due to the limited capacity of Trompenburg House, the exhibitions as well as the lectures and conferences will all be small-scale. The house will be opened to the public once a month during the April-October season (six times in total). A steward will reside at Trompenburg House.

Looking down onto Arncliffe as the suns light fleetingly lights the valley floor as it escapes thick storm clouds. I really like the resultant long shadows and rich colours, the added smoke was a bonus. I deliberately planned my days walk to end up here at this spot, but no amount of pre-planning can guarantee an image so I feel lucky that the conditions fleetingly combined.

The city centre offers many possibilities for a real voyage of discovery. A city tour takes you along the harbours, the six highest mills in the world, and distilleries and malthouses. You can also follow the footsteps of Saint Liduina, one of the most famous Dutch saints, by admiring her beautiful relics, located in the Liduina Basiliek. The museums, galleries, workshops and specialty shops are definitely worth a visit.

 

Moreover, throughout the year, the city centre is the backdrop for a large number of public events and has wonderful parks to settle on. Schiedam can also be discovered from the water: from April till October you can take a tour on the Fluisterboot. There are also various mooring points for cruises in the city centre.

The story of the city

 

The museums of Schiedam tell the story of the city. Relive the olden days in the old grocer’s shop of the Nationaal Coöperatie Museum or in the Jenevermuseum Schiedam, where you can still have a sip of old genever or corn spirit. In the Windmill Museum De Nieuwe Palmboom you can see the miller at work and exhibitions showing the milling history of Schiedam.

In the Stedelijk Museum Schiedam you can enjoy Dutch modern and contemporary art, with Post War as the main exhibition theme. The museum is located in the restored Sint Jacobs Gasthuis and has a wonderful permanent collection of over 250 Cobra works.

This castle houses a bed and breakfast,and only guests who stay there are allowed on this (private) property,as a staff member told me. They where anti photographer there, we had to go. But after I took a few photo's

 

The field has been already known since 1350 and has known a rich (construction) history. In the castle are also today a lot of paintings and images which refer among other things to the family history of the successive occupants. Its current view got the castle in 1875, when the couple of Caloen de Besseghem-de Neve de Rode both the exterior and the interior in the then prevalent neo-gothic style let rebuilt and embellishes by the well-known Antwerp architect Schadde. Most striking adaptation, however,was the rebuilding of the castle tower-donjon that during the middle ages stood there.

Vlissingen was historically called "Flushing" in English. In the 17th century Vlissingen was important enough to be a town that English speakers referred to and that had acquired its own English name. For example, Samuel Pepys referred to the town as "Flushing" in his diaries. In 1673 Sir William Temple referred to Vlissingen as "Flushing" once and "Flussingue" twice in his book about the Netherlands. Some English writers in the Netherlands also used the Dutch name.

 

Flushing, originally a Dutch colonial village and now part of Queens, New York City, was first called Vlissingen after the town in the Netherlands. The English settlers who also came to live in the village shortened the name to "Vlissing" and then began to call it by its English name, Flushing, and this continued and grew after the conquest of New Netherland. The corruption of "Vlissingen" into "Flushing" did not occur after the conquest of New Netherland, but in England well before then. This village was the site of the Flushing Remonstrance.

 

The village of Flushing in Cornwall was also named after Vlissingen. Originally named Nankersey, the village was given its name by Dutch engineers from Vlissingen in the Netherlands who built the three main quays in the village.

 

Even in modern times, some use "Flushing" as the English name of the town and maintain that it is still the correct English name.

After the last occupant of the House was seven years broekhuizen left empty. With a grant from the Empire is the exterior was renovated in 2008. The new owner wants now also addressing the inside to make an exclusive hotel/restaurant with wedding location to start. In the history of broekhuizen play a large role painted side there shall be hangings. The five large figure paintings, referred to as ' Theatre jewelry ', Hung earlier in the Orangery. In the 60s of the last century they were taken away and since then they lie curled up in a depot. Because of their vulnerability, they may be deployed only once; namely to be restored and then get a new place for good on broekhuizen. In 1906, the original Castle broekhuizen, built between 1793 en1796, in flames. the cause of the fire was probably a light that came into contact with a curtain. Two months later, the then owner of M.I. Knight Peacock of Wieldrecht all in the rebuilding. In 1909 was the new castle broekhuizen ready. It was almost a verbatim copy of the old building, with the main difference that new and fire resistant building materials such as reinforced concrete, were used.

The eastern and largest part of the Biesbosch, which is separated from the rest of the Biesbosch by the Nieuwe Merwede river (which serves as the borderline between the provinces of South Holland and North Brabant). The Brabantse Biesbosch can be divided in three parts, from which only the so-called Zuidwaard belongs to the National Park. The Zuidwaard of the Brabantse Biesbosch has fewer fields of reeds and sedges compared to the rest of the National Park and consists mostly of willow forests.

To stop/make less this washout effect, to break the stronght of the waves - that's the reason of this pillars. In the northern part of Zeeland there are beaches , many km long, and there are this pillars, always two lines together, repeating so about 500m. Depending from tide/low tide you can see 2,0m or nothing from them.

The first defensive works date from the first half of the 15th century. In 1590 the walls are replaced with earthen mounds with bastions after a design by Adriaen Anthonisz. Muiden was the northern end of the Dutch Water Line.

 

Developments in warfare during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 prompted another round of upgrades and the construction of forts part of the Stelling van Amsterdam, which includes the Muizenfort, the barracks on the Vestingplein, and the casemates in the ravelins. The layout of the fortification wall was revised.

 

Fort Pampus Island, part of municipality Muiden, was built from 1887 to 1897. Together with the lighthouse island near Durgerdam and the artillery battery at the Diemer seawall, it was meant to protect the entrance of the IJ Bay and the harbour of Amsterdam.
