Brudevolltunet shows you the type of farms people emigrated from to hopefully a better life in the US, Canada or Australia in the 19th century. The house sitting on rocks is where they kept their food and clothes.
A winter view south across Utah's Emigration Canyon to the higher Wasatch beyond. The canyon was first traversed by the Donner Party in 1846, and then, a year later by the Mormon pioneers who settled the Salt Lake Valley below. This became a favored route through the imposing Wasatch Mountains to the far west.

Positano is a village and comune on the Amalfi Coast (Costiera Amalfitana), in Campania, Italy, mainly in an enclave in the hills leading down to the coast.
Positano was a port of the Amalfi Republic in medieval times, and prospered during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. By the mid-nineteenth century, however, the town had fallen on hard times. More than half the population emigrated, mostly to America.
Positano was a relatively poor fishing village during the first half of the twentieth century. It began to attract large numbers of tourists in the 1950s, especially after John Steinbeck published his essay about Positano in Harper's Bazaar in May, 1953: "Positano bites deep", Steinbeck wrote. "It is a dream place that isn’t quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone."

Blennerville was the main port of emigration from County Kerry during the Great Famine (1845 to 1848) and was, during those years, the home port of the famous emigrant barque 'Jeanie Johnston'. The visitor centre houses a fascinating display on Irish emigration including models of the infamous coffin ships.
Tulips bloom in a display graden at Roozengaarde, a tulip farm in the Skagit Valley, Washington. The farm, established in 1985 by the Roozen family and The Washington Bulb Company, covers more than 1200 acres with bloom fields and another 15 acres with green houses. The business was built from scratch by William Roozen. He emigrated from Holland in 1947 with years of experience in the bulb industry. In the Spring each year, the Roozen Family displays their colorful varieties of tulips in gardens around the farm.
Sometimes, one would wish to emigrate. I know, it's wishful thinking. However, here in the UK, and given the situation we are in, Australia and New Zealand are desirable places indeed - and not just weather-wise. Our political imagination has been constipated, and there is little light at the end of the tunnel. OK, enough. We are going to stay. We will be cleaning up the mess we ourselves have got us into. It will take a couple of years. Fuji X-E3.

The Karen Long Neck Hill Tribe or "Padung" of Northern Thailand is one of the best known Thai hill tribes. As part of its culture, females stretch their necks through the use of brass rings beginning in early childhood. To avoid political persecution, the group emigrated to Thailand from Myanmar over the course of the past century.

He was born 30 December 1869 at Swanmore, county of Hampshire, England.
In 1876 he emigrated to Canada with his family and settled on a farm near the hamlet of Egypt, south of Sibbald Point on Lake Simcoe.
Leacock was educated at Upper Canada College, Toronto. He completed a degree in modern languages at the University of Toronto in 1891.
Inspired by Thorstein Veblen’s The Theory of the Leisure Class, he enrolled at the University of Chicago, receiving a Ph.D. in political economy and political science under Veblen in 1903.
Concurrently he joined the Department of Economics and Political Science at McGill University, Montreal.
In 1906 he published his first and most profitable book: Elements of Political Science, a university textbook. Twenty-seven other books of non-fiction followed.
In 1908 he became head of his department at McGill, helped found the University Club and began developing Old Brewery Bay.
The first of his thirty-five books of humour, Literary Lapses was published in 1910. Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town followed in 1912 and in 1914 Arcadian Adventures of the Idle Rich.
Leacock was elected to the Royal Society of Canada in 1919 and in 1921 made an extensive lecture tour of the United Kingdom. In 1935 he received the Mark Twain Medal. He retired from McGill in 1936.
Stephen Butler Leacock died 28 March 1944 at Toronto from throat cancer and was buried, across the lake from Old Brewery Bay, in the Leacock family plot at St. George’s Church, Sibbald Point.
Literally and figuratively.....Butler Indiana...... Commerce in rural towns have been decimated by emigration by the young and the proximity to a Walmart. The 80% of the downtown buildings sit vacant, are condemned or been burned down. The beautiful golden light is made possible by the demolition of the buildings across the street to the West. There is one small grocery store that sells food at twice the price of Walmart. It has a Dollar General Store and The International Monster Truck Hall of Fame...oh and a cop to resident ratio that is off the charts. The police cars are emblazoned with the
american flag and remaining buildings have flag murals. Needless to say Trump is worshiped as a god. There are no union factories in the County. Although a very rural area it ranks as one of the most polluting counties in the most polluting state. The takeover of the Democratic Party by the Neo-liberals since 1992 is as much to blame for this state of affairs as the Republicans...............................................
... In this area and much of the state if you disagree about politics you not only hate your country but are trying to destroy it out of evil and malice. See Butler album for more images of this odd place or unfortunately not uncommon
....As I shot this the Dylan song "Sundown on the Union" became an ear worm that lasted for days. Yes, that is a Christmas Tree in August in the window. I have been arrested for taking pics in public places several times and talked to by the cops. People shoot in my direction, call me a pedophile and post it on facebook or follow me around in a threatening manner with firearms.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukLtIRw71tE

It had been a long time since we had seen a moose in this area, then all of a sudden we saw three in the same day. This cow moose was in the trees at the top of the pass in Emigration Canyon, Idaho. She had a calf nearby, which made her dangerous. We stayed in the car when we took photos.
The Grade I Listed Avebury Manor, a National Trust property consisting of an early 16th-century manor house and its surrounding garden, in Avebury, near Marlborough in Wiltshire.
The manor house is privately occupied, and part is open to the general public. The house was leased and restored by Alexander Keiller who took an intense interest in Avebury henge in the late 1930s. The garden was completely redesigned in the early 20th century. The topiary and other formal gardens are contained within walls and clipped box, creating numerous "rooms".
In 2011, Avebury Manor became subject of the BBC One programme The Manor Reborn. During the course of the programme, Avebury was refurbished by a group of experts, in collaboration with the National Trust.
The earliest parts of the present house were probably built after Sir William Dunch of Little Wittenham in Berkshire (now Oxfordshire) purchased the estate in 1551. It was some way from most of his lands which centred on Wittenham, but he appears to have purchased it because of an interest in ancient monuments such as the Avebury Stone Circles. In the 1580s, he passed it on to his younger son, Walter Dunch.
The latter's daughter, Deborah, Lady Moody, grew up at the manor before emigrating to America and founding Gravesend in Brooklyn in 1645. In 1787 William Hallett of Morning Walk fame, bought the estate along with Faringdon House Berkshire. The house has had many extensions and changes over the centuries, the final addition to the manor is the West Library. The library was added by the Jenner family who occupied the house in the early 20th Century.
