Den of thieves
Shoot , she muttered, dead end.
Sure is creepy enough here, but that man at the service station had said that cutting through this east end alley would be the quickest way on foot….
It was a good thing that he noticed my engine leaking some fluid when I pulled up for gas..
He had offered to fix it for free while I was at the show…
Such a nice young man, even though I did not care much about all his tattoos….
Well I do not want to be late, should probably cut down this alleyway here.
Looks like people milling about, so it should be safe enough innit?
Safety in numbers, that’s what me Grams’ always sayin..
Perhaps one of em could show me the way? She thought cheerfully to erself as she turned and swished her way down the dimly lit alleyway with its shadowy figures inhabitants…
A few Minutes later.
She finally made it through, just around the corner they had said.
What a friendly lot, not atoll as scary as they had first looked. Hugs, admiration of her dress, excited to see her. She never usually received that much attention, not even at the pub, Poet and Peasant, were she would be heading later, after the show….
She looked back, they all seemed to have scurried off on their own business..
She had invited them to meet up later, she hoped they wo’od come.
With these thoughts meandering about, she turned the corner and swished off towards the city lights ahead…..
Spain, a Catholic nation, controlled Florida prior to 1821, and did not permit open congregations of Protestantism. The transfer of Florida to the United States in 1821 opened the door for Protestant churches to establish a presence in Pensacola.
On December 7 of that year, the Mississippi Conference of the Methodist Church, in session at Washington, Mississippi, established a mission to Pensacola; the Reverend Dr. Alexander Talley was appointed as the mission's first pastor. Talley served for about a year before being relieved by Rev. Ashley Hewett, who in turn was succeeded by Rev. Dr. Henry P. Cook. Without a permanent home, church services were held in public buildings as well as in a theatre. The March 20, 1824 issue of the Pensacola Gazette mentions a service held at the courthouse.
Rev. Dr. Cook died of yellow fever in the fall of 1825, and was replaced by Rev. Dr. John R. Lambuth, but Rev. Lambuth's tenure did not last long, for the mission was transferred to the South Carolina Methodist Conference in 1826. It was during the service of the next pastor, Rev. Dr. Charles Hardy, that the South Carolina conference approved funds for construction of a permanent home for the church.
Stephen Fagin Fulghum was chosen to build the new sanctuary; the cornerstone was laid on October 14, 1908. Services were held at Hannah Hall on Romana Street until the current building was completed in 1910. The first service was held at the completed church on October 30, 1910.
Between 1997-99, the sanctuary was renovated; its roof was replaced, its sandstone walls were cleaned with acid, and restoration work was carried out on its stained glass windows. Due to damage from Hurricane Ivan in 2004, the sanctuary roof was once again replaced in 2005.
In 2002, a new pipe organ was dedicated; the organ is "the largest and most comprehensive pipe organ in [the] area with 73 ranks of pipes and weighing some 50,000 pounds. This organ consists of a four-manual and pedal ebony console, a solid white oak case plus 4,153 pipes."

One of my favorite birds and certainly a favorite jay, the first time I saw one was in 1976 in Okanagan Valley in British Columbia where three of them were making life miserable for a kid holding down a cherry stand for his father. The kid and we were smiling throughout as what was then better known as the Grey Jays (or Camp Robber or Whiskey Jack) played out their little play based on The Artful Dodger and Fagin from "Oliver Twist." One would fly under the canopy, and while the little boy was busy shooing him away, two others would pick off a couple of those beautiful cherries, fly to a tree, and share in the spoils.
The next time I had fun with a Canada Jay was this one in 2012 when we were in the outback of Mt. Rainier in Washington state, still robbing camp sites and picnic tables. The jay, not us.
And the last one was at Coulter Bay in the Grand Tetons on Jackson Lake in 2014 where five or six were stealing anything from the grapes on our picnic napkins to potato chips right from under our noses. And, what was rather endearing, was there was one who would take a grape, fly up into a branch just out of reach, and toy with the old man who wouldn't know what to do if I caught him. But my wife held out a handful of bird seed, and three came down to pick at them at will. When I tried it, they turned their little beaks up in the air and flew off.
They really are characters. They are beautiful. And they are not easy to capture. Three encounters, a dozen decent shots in almost 40 years, and I still have to smile.

My Rottweiler breeder friend came over to have some of her dogs play on Sunday. This picture was taken after all had a good romp, hence the wagging tongues... Left to right: Mystic, Fagin (in front), Willow (back row), Danica, and Bastian.
Last night was our "Old Comrades Dinner", an annual event that has run for 93 years with only one dinner being missed, last year!
Of course I have been to all them having only retired 4 years ago.
Last night we had a few pints in Fagins, a pub I frequented for many years but sadly haven't been for several. Tom and Barbara have run the pub for 36 years and keep great beer and serve excellent food.
The drink in my hand is Abbeydale Breweries Moonshine and you won't find a better example anywhere.

After taking on fuel a 12 Squadron Tornado GR4 peels away from Fagin 43 high above the North Sea and heads towards the sunset. 18/12/2003.
Had a rotten migraine in the earlier part of the day but managed to subdue it sufficiently before heading over to my former school to take photos of the school production, "Oliver!". The teacher who was responsible for the show was in my form class from Y9-11 and my A Level English Lit class only 4 years ago...pictured is Fagin.

Had a great time at Fagin's Antiques near Exeter today!
They have the most wonderful collection of antiques and collectibles ... and let me have a snapping good time!
Thank you Jean!
For 46 years this 1961 Bentley S2 Continental, 301HYT, was owned by British actor Ron Moody, who played Fagin in Oliver! Although he ended up keeping his cherished S2 for almost half a century, it was used only sparingly in later years and was eventually sold via Bonhams in 2014 – the year before Moody passed away at the age of 91.
This luxurious car, in its original colours of Ming Blue with Off White interior, was seen at the Classic Motor Hub on 10th July 2024.
From pickpocket to fearless leader, I introduce to you the G of team GTHC, Grant Braun.
Name- Grant Braun
Weapons- Drehung Berzerkers (A pair of drill gauntlets which are also (*gasp*) Guns.
Semblance- Creation of Short range portals (a couple dozen meters, give or take, not whole cities). Grant
Backstory- Born in the lower levels of Mistral, Grant was raised in an orphanage, but when his semblance emerged unstable, he was thrown out. Left on the streets, Grant was taken in by the shifty, covetous Cayenne Roden. Roden taught Grant to master his semblance and took advantage of his ‘kindnesses to exploit Grant to join his network of thieves and pickpockets all across Mistral. Grant was made to use his semblance as an escape option during there many robberies.
On one heist Grant acquired some mining equipment from the ‘Schnee Dust Company’ which he modified into his Drehung Berserkers.
Eventually, Grant was sent on a pickpocketing mission, acquiring oddities of value from the more affluent in Mistral. In an attempt to steal a curious looking cane, Grant was caught in the act. While he nobly used his semblance to help the rest of the boys’ escape, Grant was caught and arrested by the Mistral police. Initially facing serious punishment, the person he had attempted to steal from saw potential in the young urchin’s skill and willingness to sacrifice and dropped all charges. That person was Professor Ozpin of Vale.
Using his influence with the Headmaster Leonardo Lionheart, Ozpin got Grant a place at Haven academy to train to be a Huntsman. During his training, Grant found himself grouped up with Trachelia Reichenbach, Haller Nihil and Cerise Nautilus, Grant proved himself an exceptional huntsman, despite his lack of experience and became the leader of Team GTHC (pronounced Gothic). After a relatively uneventful (well, as uneventful as training to be a warrior can be), Team GTHC graduated from Haven. Sticking together, Team GTHC travel across Anima, taking any work that comes there way, with any basic reward they need.
Grant is an extremely noble and courageous Huntsman, going all out in any fight, and is willing to do anything needed for the sake of his friends. However, while an all around good person, Grant’s time as a street thief has left him slightly ill-acquainted with some basic laws, at times casually shop lifting simply out of habit, resulting in unfortunate complications for the rest of his team
Like all members of Team GTHC, Grant is based on a character from 1800s fiction, in his case… Oliver Twist. Alongside the obvious parallels in backstory, such as his origins as a street thief working under an immoral old man (Cayenne Roden=Fagin), the term ‘Drehung’ used in his weapons translates loosely to ‘Rotation’ in German. While referring to the drill element of his weapons, the word rotation has a similar meaning to Twist…

You can go,
But be back soon
You can go,
But while you're working.
This place,
I'm pacing round...
Until you're home,
...Safe and sound
Fare thee well,
But be back soon
Who can tell
Where danger's lurking?
Do not forget this tune
Be back soon.
[BOYS]
How could we forget
How could we let
Our dear old Fagin worry?
We love him so.
We'll come back home
In, oh, such a great big
Hurry

It's him that pays the piper.

It's us that pipes his tune
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!

[FAGIN]
You can go
But be back soon
You can go,
But bring back plenty
Of pocket hankerchiefs
And you should be clever thieves.
Whip it quick,
and be back soon
There's a sixpence here for twenty
Ain't that a lovely tune?
Be back soon.
[DODGER]
Our pockets'll hold
A watch of gold
That chimes upon the hour
[BOYS]
A wallet fat
An old man's hat

The crown jewels from the tower
We know
The Bow Street Runners,

Cheerio, but be back soon.
I dunno, somehow I'll miss you
I love you, that why I
Say, "Cheerio"...
Not goodbye.
Don't be gone long
Be back soon.
Give me one long,
Last look...
Bless you.
Remember our old tune...
Be back soon!
[BOYS]
We must disappear,
We'll be back here,
Today...
...Perhaps tomorrow.
We'll miss you too
[FAGIN]
It's sad but true
That parting is such sweet sorrow.
[ALL]
And when we're in the distance
You'll hear this
Whipered tune...
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!
We'll be back soon
And when we're in the distance
You'll hear this
Whipered tune...
So long, fare thee well
Pip! Pip! Cheerio!

Just beyond your sight lie the timeless mysteries of Vogel Canyon. This canyon, etched into the heart pf the windswept prairie, has been an oasis for wildlife & people for thousands of years.
Exploring the Canyon
Descend the Canyon Trail & discover the lives of the canyon's earliest, residents, drawn here by the precious resources of water, wildlife, & shelter. Their stories are captured on the sandstone cliffs in rock art images.
A short walk down the Canyon Trail leads to the Westbrook homestead. The stone-walled ruins of the house & barn testify to the hardships one family endured through the Great Depression & Dust Bowl of 1930s. The Canyon trial also leads to the stone corrals of the Fagin & Brown sheep ranch. The Prairie Trail
Follow the Prairie Trail along the old wagon ruts to the Barlow & Sanderson Stage Road. This spur of the once-bustling Santa Fe Trail carried mail between Las Animas & Trinidad in the 1870s. The Mesa Trail leads to the ruins of an old stage station that served travelers long ago.
*On our visit here, packed with folks and were unable to find a parking spot, so only got photos of these interpretation signs.
