May I say a big thank you to all those who have faved and commented on my work, it is all very much appreciated. I do not answer each comment as the time consumed is so great trying to do so. Regards, Roy.
The benefits of sitting down to eat some ice cream are angle and looking preoccupied. And I was preoccupied...so much deliciousness to consume that I almost missed the moment. Testing the new Canon 5Ds and loving every single frame. BUT, I have Nikon muscle memory and it is interfering a bit. :)

" ...Who then devised the torment? Love.
Love is the unfamiliar Name
Behind the hands that wove
The intolerable shirt of flame
Which human power cannot remove.
We only live, only suspire
Consumed by either fire or fire.”
― T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets
Drafting any type of plan is time-consuming and it takes alot of research and knowledge of the subject to have a worthy and presentable 'delivery'. Such is the case with this recent project of the famed MARY POWELL.
I have always been scrutinized for my accuracy and detail, but I encourage those who face similiar experiences to overlook the 'nay-sayers' and just 'BE'! Overall, your skills will shine and you will, indeed, have a strong, if not robust, following. We are ALL blessed with some type of gift(s) that we can share with the world...and its by FAITH that those gifts will shine if one can believe and operate in the belief.
The maritime was not my friend in my early years. I had to endure much prejudice and back-biting by 'many' in this field; but by remaining "strong and of good courage" I weathered the storms to be the forerunner of the northeastern steamboats as a modelmaker -just one of the gifts given by "the Father of Lights". True collectors and followers know this and realize the rarity of these works that are coming out of Massachusetts 'today'.
This plan of the MARY POWELL, for accuracy, had to be based upon the scale drawing of her vertical beam engine. From that drawing I was able to 'build' the profile of her appearance when she first entered service in 1861...the beginning of America's Civil War.
Because of my thirty year tenure as a modelbuilder of Northeastern steamboats, there has never been a plan produced on MARY POWELL in the 1861 version. This is the first to come into the amercan maritime as are all the other plans I produced on these vessels. Therefore, none of these models can be copied which make them rare by collectible standards.
The Union House Hotel is the oldest continuously operated hotel in the area. The hotel was begun just one year after a catastrophic fire destroyed almost all of the older commercial buildings on Broadway. The fire consumed three of the city's older hotels, creating a demand for lodging that led Nicholas Altmayer to construct this hotel beginning in 1883. Two years later, Altmayer doubled the size of the building and in 1903 his son, Fred Altmayer, added a third story.

Union House Hotel is located in De Pere, Wisconsin. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2003. The hotel was originally run by brothers Nicholas and Fred Altmayer. In 1918, August Maternoski purchased the building. Additions have been made to the hotel in 1885, 1903, 1918 and 1922. It the oldest continuously operated hotel in the area.

De Pere (pronounced locally as "dee-peer") is a city located in Brown County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 23,800 at the 2010 census. De Pere is part of the Green Bay Metropolitan Statistical Area. At the arrival of the first European, Jean Nicolet, who visited the place in 1634–1635, De Pere was the site of a polyglot settlement of several thousand attracted by the fishing at the first rapids of the Fox River. In 1671 French Jesuit explorer Père Claude-Jean Allouez founded the St. Francis Xavier Mission at the last set of rapids on the Fox River before it enters Lake Michigan. The site was known as Rapides Des Pères (rapids of the fathers) which became modern day De Pere. Originally De Pere consisted solely of the community on the east side of the river; however, in 1890 the City of West De Pere, on the west side of the river, consolidated with the city of De Pere to form a single community. St. Norbert College, which abuts the banks of the Fox River on the city's west side near the Claude Allouez Bridge, was founded by Norbertine Abbot Pennings in 1898.

They say things lurk at night in the castle. Things unexplained....but it's not the things that go bump in the night you worry about. It's the ones who watch from the shadows
Art Sculpture, from the exhibit Empty Minds.
The exhibit Empty Minds, represented a series of characters, the empty minds, with transparent heads and wheeled feet. They all had empty minds, but some of them might have some idea. If this happened a lightbulb appeared in their empty minds ... but, the law forced them to go to the machine to extract ideas.
So Empty minds do absurd things, but they are not very aware.
This sculpture represents a character with bags full of shoes, which in reality he does not need since he is supposed to move through a wheel.

I think people sometimes overthink, which leads them to be consumed by their own worries. The only exit, paradoxically lies within ourselves

In general use, herbs are plants with savoury or aromatic properties that are used for flavouring and garnishing food, for medicinal purposes, or for fragrances; excluding vegetables and other plants consumed for macronutrients.
Culinary use typically distinguishes herbs from spices.
Herbs generally refers to the leafy green or flowering parts of a plant (either fresh or dried), while spices are usually dried and produced from other parts of the plant, including seeds, bark, roots and fruits.
Herbs have a variety of uses including culinary, medicinal, and in some cases, spiritual.
Much used and enjoyed in our kitchen!
Very much appreciated. Magda, (*_*)

This caterpillar was not doing well, some kind of wasp laid eggs on its back and it was barely moving.
El CampoSanto Cemetery, after it was no longer an active burial ground, fell into disuse. with no Markers it was hard to tell the cemetery boundary. San Diego Ave and Linwood street were built over the graves and I would suspect other areas as well. Some of the graves were relocated with ground penetrating devices. Linwood street got a plague, on the street side, by the back gate. San diego also got a plaque, by the front gate, and round plugs to mark the graves found. The plugs can be found along the sidewalk an out into San Diego Ave. When I was there during Halloween I observed that traffic is pushing the plugs into the pavement and the road is slowly consuming them.

I didn't notice it right away,
I didn't notice it until it was too late.
I'm going to change my desire
For your all-consuming fire.
I didn't want to cry out at night,
I didn't want to stop at mid flight.
I didn't plan for the fall,
When I was running from it all.
Thunderstorms
What is a thunderstorm?
A thunderstorm is a rain shower during which you hear thunder. Since thunder comes from lightning, all thunderstorms have lightning.
Why do I sometimes hear meteorologists use the word “convection” when talking about thunderstorms?
Usually created by surface heating, convection is upward atmospheric motion that transports whatever is in the air along with it—especially any moisture available in the air. A thunderstorm is the result of convection.
What is a severe thunderstorm?
A thunderstorm is classified as “severe” when it contains one or more of the following: hail one inch or greater, winds gusting in excess of 50 knots (57.5 mph), or a tornado.
How many thunderstorms are there?
Worldwide, there are an estimated 16 million thunderstorms each year, and at any given moment, there are roughly 2,000 thunderstorms in progress. There are about 100,000 thunderstorms each year in the U.S. alone. About 10% of these reach severe levels.

Charlotte International Airport
The early years
The city received a $200,000 grant from the Works Progress Administration in 1930 to establish Charlotte's first municipal airport. In 1936, the Charlotte Municipal Airport opened, operated by the City of Charlotte; Eastern Air Lines began scheduled passenger service in 1937. The original passenger terminal still exists at Fenway Sports Group's Boeing 727 parking area. (FSG's North American motorsport venture, Roush Fenway Racing, is based in the old terminal.)
The United States Army Air Forces took control of the airport and established Morris Field Air Base in 1941. The airfield was used by the Third Air Force for antisubmarine patrols and training.

1950 to mid-1960s: into the jet age
In 1954, a 70,000-square-foot (6,500 m2) passenger terminal opened and the airport was renamed Douglas Municipal Airport in honor of former Charlotte Mayor Ben Elbert Douglas, Sr. The terminal had two floors, though passenger operations were confined to the ground floor. Ticketing and baggage claim were on each side of an open space that bisected the building from north to south, and a mezzanine restaurant and airline offices overlooked this open space. Delta Air Lines began scheduled passenger service in 1956. The OAG for April 1957 shows 57 weekday departures on Eastern, 7 Piedmont, 6 Capital, 4 Delta and 2 Southern. Nonstop flights did not reach beyond Newark, Pittsburgh, Columbus, Louisville, Birmingham, and Jacksonville.

Eastern Air Lines began scheduled jet flights with the Boeing 720 in early 1962.[6] Eastern used the west pier, Piedmont and Delta the center pier, and United and Southern used the east pier.
Late 1960s to 1978: growth pre-deregulation
A major renovation project in the late 1960s expanded the facility considerably. Eastern opened a unit terminal in 1967, replacing the old west pier. This new facility had eight dedicated gates for Eastern, each with its own departure lounge, a snack bar and separate baggage claim space. Eastern passengers continued to check in at the main terminal.
In 1969, a new enclosed concourse was built parallel to the center pier. When it was completed, Piedmont, Eastern, and Delta moved in and the old center pier was demolished. The new concourse also had separate departure lounges, as well as restrooms and an enlarged baggage claim area. United's flights continued to use the east pier, with an enclosed holding room added for waiting passengers.
In 1973, Eastern added two more gates to the end of its west concourse.
1978 to 1989: becoming a major hub
After airline deregulation in 1978, passenger numbers at the terminal nearly doubled between 1978 and 1980, and a new 10,000-foot (3,000 m) parallel runway and control tower opened in 1979. The airport's master plan called for a new terminal across the runway from the existing site, with ground broken in 1979. At the time, the airport had only two concourses: one used exclusively by Eastern, and one used by other carriers, including United, Delta, Piedmont, and several commuter airlines.[7]
In 1979, Piedmont Airlines chose Charlotte as the hub for its expanding route network. To accommodate booming growth, a new 325,000-square-foot (30,200 m2) passenger terminal designed by Odell Associates opened in 1982, and the airport was renamed Charlotte Douglas International Airport.[8] Concourses B and C were expanded in 1987 and 1984 respectively, while Concourse A was built in 1986 to handle future growth[8]
In 1987 Piedmont started non-stop 767 flights to London. In the mid-1980s the old terminal site was converted to a cargo center, and the central concourse and Eastern unit terminal were removed to make way for more cargo buildings. The original main building still stands and is used for office space. The old control tower was removed in the late 1990s. In 1989 Piedmont merged with USAir; the new merged operations kept the USAir name.

In 1990, a new 80,000-square-foot (7,400 m2) international and commuter concourse (Concourse D) opened, and in 1991 further expansion of the central terminal building continued, reflective of USAir's dominating presence at the airport. A monumental bronze statue of Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz (the namesake of the city), created by Raymond Kaskey, was placed in front of the main terminal.
In 1990, Lufthansa began Boeing 747 service to Germany; this service was, however, discontinued shortly thereafter. In 1994, British Airways began service to London via a "global alliance" with USAir. This was later discontinued, as the airlines chose different alliances (though they now are both in Oneworld). Lufthansa restarted service to Charlotte in 2003 and now operates flights between Charlotte and Munich, Germany utilizing Airbus A340-600 and Airbus A330-300 aircraft.
In 1999, plans were announced for the construction of a regional carrier concourse (present-day Concourse E) and for the expansion of Concourses A and D. This expansion was designed by The Wilson Group and LS3P Associates Ltd.[9]
In 2002, the new 32-gate Concourse E opened,[10] and US Airways began non-stop service to Belize, Freeport, Providenciales, Punta Cana, and St. Croix. The airline closed its Concourse D US Airways Club location in 2002.
In 2003, the main ticketing hall was expanded to the east, providing 13 additional ticketing counters and a new security checkpoint; Concourse D was expanded by an additional nine gates. That year, US Airways began service to Costa Rica, Mexico City, and St. Kitts.
Following the 2005 acquisition of US Airways by America West Airlines in a reverse takeover,[11] Charlotte (CLT) remained the primary domestic hub for the airline. The majority of US Airways' international routes remained at the airline's second-largest hub, Philadelphia.
