A long time ago someone must have needed an instant corral so they lashed a bunch of utility gates together. This makeshift corral at Quiet Valley Ranch looks like it has been there a long time. HFF
The Menin Gate Memorial to the Missing is a war memorial in Ypres, Belgium, dedicated to the British and Commonwealth soldiers who were killed in the Ypres Salient of World War I and whose graves are unknown. The memorial is located at the eastern exit of the town and marks the starting point for one of the main roads out of the town that led Allied soldiers to the front line.
Designed by Sir Reginald Blomfield and built by the Imperial War Graves Commission (since renamed the Commonwealth War Graves Commission), the Menin Gate Memorial was unveiled on 24 July 1927.
I was wandering home down a country lane when this very red sun caught the corner of my eye as it crept down to sleep behind this gate - it has a nest there .....
There's a humpback whale in the sky too.......
.....fancy that - in Wales!
Following Germany's surrender and the end of the war, the governments of East Berlin and West Berlin restored it in a joint effort. The holes were patched, but were visible for many years following the war.
Vehicles and pedestrians could travel freely through the gate, located in East Berlin, until the Berlin Wall was built, 13 August 1961. Brandenburg Gate border crossing was later closed on 14 August 1961. West Berliners gathered on the western side of the gate to demonstrate against the Berlin Wall, among them West Berlin's governing Mayor Willy Brandt, who had spontaneously returned from a federal election campaigning tour in West Germany earlier on the same day. It was closed throughout the Berlin Wall period until 22 December 1989.
Back to random posts for awhile, till my next series.
This passage thru this wall is also called the Sinclair Canyon Falls, It is one of the first visual rewards and clues of the beauty ahead when entering BC's Kootenay National Park from Radium Hot Springs BC.
Hwy 93 (Banff-Windermere hwy) barely squeezes thru this tight chasm. An engineering marvel, and thrill when seeing and driving thru it.
This is the western entrance to the park which leads to Banff National Park. My preferred route. Spectacular scenery in every direction ahead.
Happy Friday!

The Historic Friar Gate Bridge in Derby. It was built by Andrew Handyside & Co and was part of the western extension of the Great Northern Railway and opened in 1878.
Derby City Council has put aside cash to give it a makeover. The bridge will benefit from work costing £260,000 over the next 12 months, including a paint job.

Vehicle access is stopped by this gate on the River Lea access path in Edmonton.
I don't know how anyone slept on the narrowboats; just across the river to the right an all night party was held in a disused building and the music could be heard for miles around.

"No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith.”

I don't know where it leads yet ... but every trip down this road has been interesting. Happy Fence Friday
The Brandenburg Gate is one of the most iconic sights in today’s vibrant Berlin. More than just Berlin’s only surviving historical city gate, this site came to symbolise Berlin’s Cold War division into East and West – and, since the fall of the Wall, a reunified Germany. Architecturally, the sandstone Brandenburg Gate also represents one of the earliest and most attractive examples of a neo-classical building in Germany.
Finally the time is here!
Today the gates will be opened.
11.00 AM sl time we will kick of with an opening party and I would be delighted if you joined us!
Come explore or party with us and I hope you will have as much fun here as I had creating it.
This sim is created to emulate and elicit the feel in the watercolor paintings done by Andrew Wyeth. Melancholy, nostalgia, starkness and the crispness of his work. You will find spots throughout the sim where you can find recreations of some of his paintings and you can pose, take pictures and create your own art work as you like it.
I hope you enjoy!
From 11.00 AM you can find us:
GC and Frenchy, a big big thank you for your help and support!
And.....this gorgeous poster has been created by GC, thank you so much my dear friend! <3
The Lion Gate was the main entrance of the Bronze Age citadel of Mycenae, southern Greece. It was erected during the 13th century BC, around 1250 BC in the northwest side of the acropolis and is named after the relief sculpture of two lionesses or lions in a heraldic pose that stands above the entrance.
The Lion Gate is the sole surviving monumental piece of Mycenaean sculpture, as well as the largest sculpture in the prehistoric Aegean. It is the only monument of Bronze Age Greece to bear an iconographic motif that survived without being buried underground, and the only relief image which was described in the literature of classical antiquity, such that it was well known prior to modern archaeology.

The Victoria Gate shopping centre in Leeds, England, was built in 2016 and forms part of the Victoria Leeds shopping district. The facade of the car park comprises many strips of stainless steel that have been meticulously twisted to create a beautiful pattern as the sunlight reflects off them - this pattern is a continuation of the design theme used throughout the building exterior.
