The old greenhouses...the ones with glass...are disappearing and being replaced with plastic panels or plastic sheeting. I've decided to track down as many as I can. There is something special (to me) about the old glass, watering systems, etc. I guess I'm just nostalgic about the older ways of doing things...the less commercial...the textures of life back when...
Space Oddity is my first entry for the League of Lego Heroes group. The inspiraton comes from David Bowie's song and Martian Manhunter.
Back in the late 50s, when Guri Yagarin's spaceship lost contact with Earth, nobody expected to hear or see him again. Specialists said that was the beginning of the end for the International Space Program, even though it lasted a few more decades.
But a few and spread out rumours of a green entity branding the Space Program symbol began a few years later. The weird stories reached a peak of popularity when a famous musician claimed to have met the entity during the 70s.
With the strong activity of super heroes these rumours started again, and the existence of the entity was confirmed during an epic fight in a crowded park.
Those who have heard Space Oddity's telepathic voice say he warns of disastrous events yet to come, but most have become mentally ill and are no longer able to provide reliable information.
So far the entity seems to be able to fly, move objects from a distance, and teleport. It is unknown if it is actually Guri Yagarin or something else. It's interactions with other people have been limited to telepathic communication and using it's powers to save them from any immediate danger.
This is the entry walk we had done two years ago - stamped concrete to resemble stone. We're quite pleased with the result.
This is the new added curved "wing" that comes up from the driveway, and meets the site of the previous walk, also newly done.
My entry to Round One of The Tourney:
Guild: The Archdukes of Chaa-bu-buk (don't look at me...)
Category: Shipwreck. Shipwreck! SHIPWRECK! (yay!)
I built a shipwreck interior, story may be found on MOCpages (or rather, I'll add a link here when it really is). I'm quite happy with this build, hope you like it.
This is the doorway to the courtyard we stayed at. We each rented a room, hard beds and lots of blankets.
snapped seconds before that front door opened
and I was likely questioned about my doings
does anyone else who shoots stuff like this worry about getting a shotgun trained on them?
came across this private house driveway entry! Amazing to see. Wish I could've seen what the house looked like!! at Cedar Creek
There is something so appealing and comforting to all of the different kinds of doors and entries that i see here in Poland. So very different from the pristine entries I am used to seeing in Seattle. The above door has probably been around for hundreds of years....
The abandoned United Artists Theater, Detroit. Designed 1927 by C. Howard Crane, and later closed as theater in 1974.
My entry for a competition where you base your outfit inspiration on a particular interior design photograph. To see said photograph, visit my blog: www.owlandthegrapes.blogspot.com
All thrifted for £1.50 or less except AA gold leggings which were a gift.
For some reason, this is one of my favorite images from my Bodie series. The color, texture, splintered wood, wooden door knob and rusted hardware sort of sum up the appeal of Bodie.
Most of the buildings in the Bodie State Park ghost town have locked doors and you have to peer in the windows to see the scenes of "arrested decay". One would feel like a voyeur there, except everyone else is doing it too :)
A few of the sturdier buildings are residences for the park personnel, and the shades are drawn to keep the nosy tourists out.
A few of the interior scenes, taken thru dusty warped glass windows, are shown below:
Sorry for the repost. The photo you guys saw was the unedited version. Here is the edited one.

One of my entries (or only, I don't know) for the G.I. Brick Contest- New weapons showcasing the M9 in gunmetal.
All weapons are Brickarms and everything else is LEGO.
Enjoy!
Come in feeling good. Leave with a lot of baggage...
The massive, approximately 1,400,000 square foot, Great Lakes Crossing Outlets was opened on Novemeber 12th 1998. Taubman developed this mall after a plan by Mills to build "Auburn Mills" on the site fell through. Great Lakes Crossing is obviously a Mills inspired mall. The original anchors of the mall were Bass Pro Shops, JCPenney Outlet, Burlington Coat Factory, Sportmart, and Star Theatres. Of those main anchors, JCPenney Outlet closed and Sportmart (another source says it may have been Oshman's) became Sports Authority. A number of mid-size anchor stores such as T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, Group USA, Saks Off Fifth Outlet, Lord & Taylor Outlet, Neiman Marcus Last Call, SeaLife aquarium, Forever 21, and Bed Bath & Beyond are also found at this mall.
The mall appears to be doing very well based on how I saw it. I only noticed a handful of vacancies and most of those vacancies appear to have happened within the months prior to my visit. The largest vacancy at the mall was a former Toby Keith's I Love This Bar And Grill location, which closed in late 2015. The mall also seemed to have heavy foot-traffic and full parking lots. I was planning to eat here as well but all the tables in the food court had people at them and the full service restaurants, like Rainforest Cafe, all had waits. This is a little departure from me covering mostly dead or dying malls. I thought it was odd to see a mall with an aquarium in it as well!

This is a Squirt from the video game Bastion. Built for BZPower's BBCC #67: Super Smash Builders.
My entry picture uses an older version of the base before I got some parts from Bricklink.
This year i went to Ilha do Sal, Cabo Verde. Still fascinating from Africa and sick of "Mal d'Afrique".
I've spent some days underwater (i did some dives), and a couple of days visiting the island on a quad.
Enjoy the photos!
