Another view of the county courthouse in Wayne, Nebraska. The 1899 building features 18-inch thick brick walls, perhaps in response to the fire that burnt down the previous courthouse. The courthouse square is unusual in that, except for the library, it is surrounded entirely by houses rather than commercial buildings that is typical for Midwestern courthouses.
The beautiful courthouse in my home town.
I am leaving Colorado after having lived here since 1975. Things are just getting too expensive here and it's getting too crowded.
I'm heading back to where I grew up. 20 miles from where I grew up anyway. I just need to go somewhere quiet and peaceful for a bit of time. There will be a lot that I will miss. Many restaurant choices, having a lot of grocery stores to shop at. Live music. BUT- I think it will work out just fine.
Kansas City and Omaha aren't terribly far, so if I need a 'city fix' I can head there for a weekend.
I'm looking forward to spending time exploring the midwest for a change.

When I grow up, I want to be just like that tree - taller than Courthouse Butte and Bell Rock. (View from Slim Shady Trail in Sedona.)
Located in downtown Amherst, Virginia, this attractive structure served as the Amherst County Courthouse beginning in 1872, followed by the construction of a newer building in the 1990s. I took this shot while driving through Amherst several years ago. Information from the town's website and a couple of other courthouse websites.

"The Chowan County Courthouse is a historic courthouse in Edenton, the county seat of Chowan County, North Carolina. Built in 1767, it is one of the finest examples of public Georgian architecture in the American South. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1970.
The old Chowan County Courthouse is located in downtown Edenton, at the northwest corner of East King and Court Streets. It is separated from the city waterfront by a one-block park. It is a two-story, T-shaped Georgian style building. It has a one-story semicircular apse at its center rear and features a two-stage wooden cupola with ogival roof surmounted by a tall-weathervane. The interior has a large courtroom on the ground floor, and a ballroom on the second. The building has seen only relatively modest alterations.
Edenton was settled in 1658 and incorporated in 1712, and is counted as the first permanent European settlement in North Carolina. Its first courthouse, built in 1719, was also the seat of the colonial assembly, and was located on the land of the park. This courthouse was commissioned to be built in 1766, and completed in 1767, and its design has been attributed to Gilbert Leigh, who was living in Edenton at the time of its construction. It has also been attributed to John Hawks, who designed Tryon Palace in New Bern, was active in North Carolina at the time. It is the oldest courthouse building in North Carolina.
The courthouse is one of several sites of Historic Edenton. Other historic sites open for tour include the James Iredell House, Roanoke River Light, Barker House, Cupola House and St. Paul's Church." (Wikipedia)

Courthouse Towers marks the end of the one mile trail from park ave and is one of the larger stand alone rock faces in the park. Sunny clear skies again :sigh: I did manage to get the sun just peeking out the top to add some interestingness though.

This is part of a two day entry this week. This image is the front of the building. Tomorrow I will give you a glimpse of the back.

This is The Courthouse, Athy, Co. Kildare. Quite why it warrants an entry in the Irish Tourist Association collection is not clear at all. It is a fine building in the “very curvy style” and I see our old friend Bill Stickers has been very busy on the gable end.

Date: Likely May or June 1944.

The Old Courthouse (officially called the Old St. Louis County Courthouse) was built as a combination federal and state courthouse in St. Louis, Missouri. Missouri's tallest habitable building from 1864 to 1894, it is now part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial and operated by the National Park Service used for historical exhibits and events. The Old Courthouse was the site of the first two trials of the pivotal Dred Scott case in 1847 and 1850. It was also where Virginia Minor's case for a woman's right to vote came to trial in the 1870s.

The courthouse in Lawrenceburg, Indiana was built in 1870-1871 from limestone in the Greek Revival Style. Image was taken from the floodwall to it's south. Dearborn County has the reputation of being one of the toughest on crime in Indiana. Drugs are responsible for much of the crime. Drugs changed America.
