This magnificent 20,000-square-foot mansion was built in 1899-1901 for self-made millionaire and Senator George Taylor Fulford I (1852-1905) and his family. The house was designed by noted American architect Albert W. Fuller, with landscaping design by the prestigious Olmsted Brothers firm.

Fulford Place and its collection were donated to the Ontario Heritage Trust by the Fulford family in 1991. Many items from the family’s collection are exhibited in the house just as they were over 100 years ago. The Ontario Heritage Trust’s extensive restoration of Fulford Place brings to life the glamorous lifestyle of the early 20th century’s new aristocracy: the business tycoon

gilt dies nun auch für den DFB?

does this now also apply to the German Football Association?

Much love and gratitude to those who inspire, comfort and strengthen me. You know who you are ....

La espera

La silenciosa cosecha de todos estos años

se agosta en los cajones, envejece conmigo.

De tarde en tarde, mi mano se distrae

quitándoles el polvo a esos vestigios

de emoción

que se niegan a morir. Vuelven siempre,

sumisos, al anónimo reposo de la espera.

Se alinean al azar bajo inseguros rótulos

que alivian, como huellas, mi paso por el tiempo.

Austeros epitafios,

sombras, murmuraciones vagas

que se acogen, como gatos,

a la escueta caricia de la melancolía.

A firm favourite with florists, prized for their attention-grabbing, larger than average blooms, long flowering time and incredible vase life. A relative of the buttercup, each petal has a thin, waxy layer which prolongs life as a cut flower whilst giving the appearance that they are sparkling. Perfect planted in early spring to provide early summer colour to your borders and containers. Prefer well-drained soil in sun or part shade. Height 30cm (12'). Spread 15cm (6'). Tender bulbous perennials.

That's a trait The Elk has in abundance !

Lomagnupur mountain reflecting in a roadside pool. It helped that tourism was down during my visit. Otherwise, I may not have been able to pull over to make some of the photographs. There were not many pull-outs on the road, and virtually no shoulder; so no traffic was helpful in seeing ahead to make stops when possible. South Iceland, April 2021

Washington's North Head Lighthouse stands regally against the storms. Judging from other images I've seen, it's been spruced up nicely.

Ci saranno momenti dolorosi della tua vita che cambieranno tutto in un minuto.

Fa' che ti rendano più forte, più arguta, più gentile. Ma non diventare ciò che non sei.

Piangi, urla, se devi. Poi rimettiti a posto e va' avanti

What started off as a joint project with Transnistrian military firm SniB to produce a well-protected 3rd-Generation Main Battle Tank eventually split in two directions. The Chenchnan-made turret was too large for the Transnistrian chassis and accommodatory railroad transportation (particularly, many bridges and tunnels), and the Transnistrian project eventually became the SniB-90 series. The turret sat in a warehouse for nearly a year before a new military ordnance request dug it out. A new, domestic chassis was fitted with great assistance from the Sangheili officers and engineers from the crashed ship "Liturgy of the Sacrament". Whist an absolutely massive vehicle, the extremely durable polymer armor and incredible speeds from the repulsor-based propulsion system gave it an uncharacteristic speed and power. Floating a foot above ground, the Maschith can glide above rough terrain with ease. However, it is not without its issues. A plasma-based fuel system eats fuel for breakfast and is highly volatile, and an interior designed with primarily Sangeili in mind does not suit human ergonomics especially well. However, testing has concluded it is not only an effective warmaking vehicle, but one whose presence on the battlefield should not be taken lightly.

Based off of the Type-26 Wraith, from the Halo franchise. Turret was a Black Eagle/Obj. 640 project I had been making with Ian, but the turret turned out too large for a realistically-scaled chassis. So now there's this.

Also, can this count as Mechtober?
