This first edition of the poems of Nathan Lanesford Foster was printed and bound in 1841 in the print shop in Philadelphia where my great-great-great grandfather worked at the time.
For those of you who know Philly: the print shop was located in what is now the 'Old City' section of Philadelphia, near the Betsy Ross House and Independence Hall.
More modern editions of this volume are available at select booksellers:

BPRR SIRI passes one of the petroleum plants at Foster Brook, just north of Bradford. This section of northwestern Pennsylvania is the birthplace of America's oil industry, and several petrochemical plants still exist in the area.
Fosters Freeze is a chain of fast-food restaurants in California. It was founded by George Foster in 1946 on La Brea Avenue in Inglewood, California, a location that still remains. Wikipedia
Located in Foster, Kentucky a few miles down the Ohio River from Meldahl Dam. Incorporated in 1850 with a 2010 population of 44. The incorporation was dissolved in 1999. The AA highway bypassed Foster in the 1980's..it's hardware and grocery closed. Tough to see the empty buildings dry rotting to nothing.
London City Hall
is located on the South Bank of the River Thames adjacent to Tower Bridge, in the City of London. Designed by the architect Norman Foster of the Foster and Partners architecture firm. Foster is a world-renowned architect that has designed many famous buildings throughout the United Kingdom.
The entirety of the building is accessible by a helical staircase that runs 500 metres to the top floor. There is an exhibition and viewing area at the top of the building that is often used as a meeting space for the Greater London Authority. Photovoltaic cells are being integrated into the building to help bring it up to the United Kingdom's stringent energy guidelines.
It was constructed using over 4 tonnes of steel and 13,100 square metres of concrete. During construction, two large pipes were installed that tapped into the water table of the River Thames.

Maud Foster Windmill is a seven-storey, five sail windmill located by the Maud Foster Drain in Skirbeck, Boston, Lincolnshire, from which it is named. It’s one of the largest operating windmills in England being 80 feet (24.38 m) tall to the cap ball.
The tower mill and adjoining granary is a Grade I listed building. The mill was built in 1819 for Isaac and Thomas Reckitt of Wainfleet. It was repaired and restored in 1988.
Foster Falls is beautiful and impressive. I thoroughly enjoyed shooting it, however, the stream and cascades that flow out of the falls are amazing.
This is one of Nicole's (Escaping Reality) favorite places. Now I understand why.
Taken in Toledo, Ohio on July 7, 1929. Written on the back of the photo is:
"July 7, 1929
F. M. Foster
Sunday
29 years old."
Fletcher Foster was the youngest child of George Martin Foster and Ida Florence Williams-Foster and his wife Ruth's father was a Riggs and her mother was a Foust. All were from Anderson County, Tennessee. They were laid to rest in the Leach Cemetery just south of Lake City, Tennessee.
They always drove red cars, it was their favorite color. Their favorite song on was " Lucille" by Kenny Rogers; Toledo was mentioned in the lyrics. They were Elvis fans too. They intent was to be cremated. Ruth passed away first and Uncle Fletch just couldn't go through with the cremation. A granite cross was placed over her grave and Uncle Fletch painted the ends of the cross red. About a year later he was a found a day or two after he passed away in his home, he died from a broken heart. They never had any children.
Note: Ruth legally changed her name from Ruby to Ruth (or vice versa?).
The overcast conditions on this particular morning made for a really bland sky. But, thanks to all the recent rain, this puddle provided a nice reflection. I ended up with a much more serene scene in front of me than the the one I had envisioned on my drive out that morning.

"Dieci stelline al discorso ai laureati del Kenyon College...
...che secondo me tutti dovrebbero leggere, almeno una volta nella vita. E non esagero se dico che si dovrebbe magari tenerlo a portata di mano, e rileggerlo, ogni tanto, per ricordarsi di tentare (almeno tentare) di avere quello "sguardo profondo" sulla realtà che permette di non dare tutto per scontato, di mettersi nei panni degli altri per vedere le cose sotto una prospettiva differente e di far fare un passo indietro al proprio egocentrismo." Recensione al libro che sottoscrivo. Mi sono piaciuti i racconti, ma è il discorso ai laureati che merita l'acquisto del libro. Buona lettura!
"Ten stars for the speech to the graduates of Kenyon College...
...which in my opinion everyone should read, at least once in their life. And I am not exaggerating if I say that you should perhaps keep it at hand, and reread it every now and then, to remember to try (at least try) to have that "deep look" on reality that allows you not to take everything for granted, to put yourself in shoes of others to see things from a different perspective and to take a step back from one's own egocentrism." Review of the book that I subscribe to. I liked the stories, but it is the speech to the graduates that deserves the purchase of the book. Good reading!
A portrait of actress Meg Foster, who happens to be from my hometown. Doesn't she have the most hypnotic eyes?
An alternate view to one I posed some time ago. Foster Falls and its lead in creek provides a stunning composition.
This is our first foster kitten of 2018. She came to us near the end of 2017 and she is now ready to go up for adoption.
Here are sisters Maisy and Daisy in what appears to be my most important single photo on the internet. It looks like they are smooching but really they are helping each other clean up after eating since they did not have a mother cat available to do that. Mailsy and Daisy got adopted out together.
