Lobaria pulmonaria and Peltigera collina
Iron Goat trail
"Sometimes P. collina lacks soredia (especially when epiphytic, making it similar to P. neckeri. They both have a shiny upper surface and blackish apothecia, in contrast to the usual brown apothecia in Peltigera." - McCune, Bruce, and Geiser, Linda (2009) Macrolichens of the Pacific Northwest

A volunteer server listens at a Community Dinner attended by locals in need of food or conversation.
Buffalo, Montana; apparently no longer in use, the old community hall building is boarded up and deteriorating.
The Buffalo post office opened in 1890 after homesteaders established the town. The Great Northern Railroad built a branch line through the area in 1908 and established a station in Buffalo, helping to build the town into a successful community. A ten-room school was built in 1927 to serve the needs of the town and ranches in the local area. However, the Great Depression, falling crop prices, drought and other circumstances caused the town to decline as the former homesteaders were forced to leave the area. There are still a few homes, the post office is still in operation to serve the ranchers in the area and there is a church that is still active, but the town is now essentially a ghost town.
Esperanza Community Services was founded by Guadalupe Reyes in 1969 as a school for children whose learning needs were not met in traditional classrooms. It now provides an alternate school for more than 60 full-time students ranging from kindergarten to 22-years-old with developmental disabilities, as well as services for around 70 adults, including in-home and at group homes in the neighborhood. The center is predominantly housed in the former St. Columbkille Catholic School at 520 N. Marshfield Ave. Since Esperanza moved into the structure in the 1970s, it has received few upgrades and major repairs. A recently received $585,230 grant will allow for renovation to commence this fall, coordinating with the ongoing school year with an estimated completion by 2024.
Organized in 1859, St. Columbkille Church was located at 1638 W. Grand Ave. In 1899, the Sisters of Providence took charge when the Holy Cross Brothers withdrew and Father Dunne invited the sisters to take charge of the boys’ school. In 1907, the sisters also took charge of the girls’ school due to the withdrawal of the Sisters of Charity. Boys and girls were in separate rooms. The grammar school for the girls developed into a full eight grades and a commercial high school. Because of the lack of available sisters, the grammar school closed in 1971. The commercial school closed in 1969. The church, since demolished, closed in 1975.
The Islamic Community Center is on Kingshighway Boulevard and Landsdowne Avenue in St. Louis, Missouri. It seems to primarily serve the ethnic Bosnian community.

Cuckmere Community Bus Ford Transit XVX299L with coachwork by Deansgate conversions. This quirky little thing from long before the big minibus revolution of the mid eighties had been new to Eastbourne. It is seen at Berwick railway station in July 1984.
This was built as the new Laurel School in 1898, replacing the old Laurel School just up the road. The new school was one room with a pot-bellied stove in its center. It operated until 1923 when an even newer school was built. After the school board no longer needed the building, it was sold to the people of the community and has since been the Laurel Community Church.
Thursday morning I took a walkabout around my 1942 Alma mater which was built in 1912.
That be what is now Oaklands School & Community Centre which was formed in 2000.
Looking online, I could not find any references to the time of my tenure: 1942-48
Mr. McKinnon was principal during most of those years and before I left for S.J. Willis High School in 1948, Horace R. Dawson (1913-2008) became principal. Horace first became a school principal in McKenzie Elementary School at age 17yrs. in 1931. He was a brilliant scholar.
Mr. Dawson (1913-2008) he was 94yrs 11 months
Horace is an Irvine descendant borne from the Mary Ann (nee Irvine) Laing family line. Mary Ann was the second-born, Irvine child in Victoria BC in 1853.
One can see from this missal that Oaklands is more than just a school to me.

After news of Ice-Bat's heroic rescue of Wage spread amongst the ugly community he's become somewhat of a local superstar, with people wanting to say hello to him, give him a hug, shake his wing and he's even had some underwear thrown at him too (which embarassed him quite a lot if I'm being honest).
He was asked to do an interview for the Ugly Times in which they wanted to ask him all about himself, his life, his aspirations and re-enact the story of saving Wage from the armpit-high snow he was stuck in.
As part of the feature they asked for him to meet with the papers local photographer and do a shoot, which he turned down and said, "I will only do a photoshoot when I choose the photographer".
Thankfully the newspapers editor in chief agreed and here you have the shot which they will be using...
Ice-Bat is so happy with the shot and has already asked for them to run with the headline "The King of Snow and Ice".

For my birthday on the 12th September, I arranged a day out in Nottingham with Ash... The next 32 photos are all from the day, so please don't just look at the top five!
To start off the top five from the day though, here's one of the new Optare Solo EVs, which Nottingham Community Transport operate on the locallink services around the city. I'm not sure on the total number in service, but it's quite a few. Here's 956 at Lark Hill Village, Clifton, seen here waiting time before heading to Nottingham City Centre on the 1145 L64.
No -- this isn't what I wore to community service -- but it's what I changed into for the afternoon when we got back from packaging tortillas for the needy.
This skirt I got when I was going to school in California a few years ago at Banana Republic. It's one of my all time favorite pencil skirts. The material is a surprisingly heavy weave, and to the touch seems like it would be very stiff -- but every time I wear it I feel like it was made just for me - and makes me feel so tall and classy -- Business Sexy.
I'm very into the longer but well fitted pencil skirt. I love skirts of all types, but for work, I love pencils.
--and of course those famous pumps again.
While living in a small mountain town in Colorado, we lived in a community where humans were in the minority. The Big Horns way outnumbered us two legged creatures and they even received more visitors than us! We became so familiar with each other that we could just walk out our door, meet our community of Big Horns of all ages and neither one of us felt fearful or threatened. These young'uns pictured above were the most curious and when working in our yard they seemed to enjoy just hangin' around to watch what we were up to. The were the best part of our community for certain!
