George Walsh (1889-1981) was an American film actor, who despite a successful career in silent cinema is best remembered for the part that was taken off from him: the title role in Ben-Hur (1925).

My niece Signe's not darn pretty nor too bright cat. However, George has charm and personality enough to melt the world!

It is one of several Weickert farms in the area at the time of the battle, with three belonging to George’s sons and another to a distant cousin. There is also a George W. Weickert farm, also known as the Timbers farm, south of Brooke Avenue.
George Weikert was born around 1801 and moved to the Gettysburg area from Maryland in 1838. He bought the 78 acre farm north of Little Round Top in 1852.
George and his family left the farm during the fighting. Afterwards they returned to scenes of desolation familiar to many Gettysburg residents. The house was a field hospital, with wounded filling the parlor and amputated arms and legs piled outside the windows. According to family history, six men died just in the parlor, and the yard was filled with graves. When the buried were exhumed to be placed in the National Cemetery, the missing parlor rug was found, cut into strips as the top and bottom layers of the burial trench.
After the battle the farm was purchased by survivors of the New Jersey Brigade to presrve the land that the brigade held during the battle. The New Jersey Brigade’s monument is about 200 yards east of Weickert farmhouse. The farm today is owned by the National Park Service.

I forgot to take a picture so unfortunately it is still in its box. Taken from a George colouring page which I enlarged on the photocopier until it was the right size then cut out each piece and used the pieces as a template to cut out the cake. I didnt have the right colour blue so I was brave and got my airbrush out - and am really pleased with the even colouring.
I did not really even know who George Ezra was, but I volunteered to accompany Flo and Audrey into DC last night for his concert at the Lincoln Theatre. I was pleasantly surprised with some good music and an entertaining evening.

The project to replace the 61-year-old Salmon River Bridge on Highway 97 north of Prince George, is going to tender.
The old bridge will be replaced with a new structure that can handle oversize transport trucks. Wider and with a greater load capacity, it will support the movement of heavy loads required to service the resource sectors in the North such as oil and gas, LNG and forestry. The total value of the project is estimated at $24 million and work is expected to begin in the fall of 2016.
