This was our tour guide up to White Pass Mountain. Her name is Sunday. Yes, her name really is "Sunday". Interesting bit of history on her: born in California; grew up in Texas; and now works in Alaska. She knew a lot about the surrounding areas and history of Skagway.

Spring Hill, an inner Brisbane suburb, is immediately north and north-west of the city centre. The dividing boundary between Spring Hill and the city is Wickham Terrace which, incidentally, is the suburb's most notable thoroughfare.
The rising landscape was a source of spring water, and an example is to be found in the Roma Street Parklands.
In 1856 land sales occurred in Wickham Terrace and Leichhardt Street. It was a choice area, as the Terrace ascended a ridge where better-off residents could build houses to catch views and cooling breezes. Further subdivisions followed in the less elevated areas, and in 1862 the Spring Hill Hotel opened in Leichhardt Street. By the end of the 1870s there were several public and charitable institutions in Spring Hill: a mechanics institute (1864), a female refuge and infants home in Herbert Street (1871-1916), the Lady Bowen lying-in hospital at 497 Wickham Terrace (1890), Methodist church, a government school (1875) now Brisbane Central (1876), St Joseph's College (1875) and the Brisbane Children's Hospital (1878). The All Saints Anglican Church (1869) was built in Wickham Terrace, and is listed on the Queensland heritage register (QHR).
Spring Hill's elevated position made it an ideal site for service reservoirs, gravity fed from the Enoggera Dam. The reservoirs and their enclosures are near the windmill next to Wickham Park Built in 1871 and 1882, they were reconditioned and remained in use until 1962. In 2014 plans were announced to utilise one of the reservoirs as a temporary performance space for the Underground Opera Company with guided tours by the National Trust.
Whilst Spring Hill's elevated thoroughfares made for a desirable address, the lower areas were subdivided for working class families, within walking distance of employment, the city and Fortitude Valley. Moody's cottages at 8-16 Victoria Street (c1875, QHR) are surviving examples. The small blocks were cited as a reason for bringing in the Undue Subdivision of Land Act in 1885, prescribing a minimum size of 16 perches. By the end of the 1890s most of Spring Hill was subdivided and occupied. Stormwater drainage works were completed by 1886, coinciding with the provision of water for personal hygiene at the new municipal baths (QHR) in Torrington Street. Apart from the Catholic college and the Grammar schools three significant church buildings were erected in the 1880s-90s: the Second Bethlehem Lutheran church in Wickham Terrance (1881), St Paul's Presbyterian church (1889, QHR) and the Baptist City Tabernacle (1890, QHR).
A substantial medical and hospital precinct grew along Wickham Terrace, along with boarding houses, flats, schools, churches and clubs. Some medical entrepreneurs built rooms for renting to the profession, notably Wickham House at 155 Wickham Terrace (1924, QHR) and since World War II the Terrace has specialised in medical facilities.
Away from the ridges the working class kept to their cottages. Many houses were rented, and at the beginning of the 1930s financial Depression Spring Hill had anti-eviction riots. Inner urban childcare was pioneered there, with facilities at Bedford Playground (1927, QHR) and a Lady Gowrie Child Care Centre (1939). The 'adult playground' was at the Picture Palace (1911) where the tram turned from Wharf Street into Leichhardt Street.
Spring Hill's perimeter includes Albert Park, Brisbane Grammar (1881) and Brisbane Girls' Grammar Schools and Victoria Park running north-east to the Exhibition. The park includes the Centenary swimming pool (1959, QHR). Brisbane Central Primary School (1876, QHR) and St Joseph's College (1875) are set among residential areas, but much of Spring Hill closer to the city is commercial and public use such as hospitals and churches. A modern town house built in 1964 signified an early return to inner-city living, and a development control plan for Spring Hill was brought in during the early 1980s. The first Spring Hill Festival was held in 1973.

I put Mindy's girly bandana which lets people know she's a girl-dog (how can they not tell?), and also asks tells them "Don't pet me" and "I'm working".
I got this so maybe people would get the hint, and I wouldn't have to look like a bit meanie because I won't let them pet the doggie.
A blonde teenager in a white bikini bent down to, you guessed it, pet her as I stood in line for some fries and a drink. I really didn't mind telling her not to pet Mindy - I mean, can't she read?
I love it when people standing close to me, talk to each other as if I'm not only blind, but deaf as well. "Oh, look at the cute puppy!" "Ya, but she's working, so don't pet her", "What if I ask if I can pet her?", "You CAN'T, it's a Guide Dog" "OHHHHH...I wanna pet the doggie!"
Now this is not an exchange between a parent and a child, for some reason, they seem to know that they have to ask before they pet a strange dog, it is the teens and 20'somethings that are the worst for some reason.
I loved the bright pink of this bandana, so decided to highlight it by making the photo black and white with just some colour punched through the layers.
... And the wind carries them off, and all of the hope in their hearts is carried with them until they are gone. The rhythm of the soul beats as one with the rhythm of the heart but when the soul dies in the dark the lyrics are lost. Thus, the mind is forced to break away from its orbit and gently fall apart.
These guides, published by the Boeing Commercial Airplane Company, are an airplane nerd's delight. Think of it as an airliner striptease. You will find all kinds of detailed information on what is under that smooth, glossy aluminum skin.
The airplane on the cover is a Boeing 707-120B.

A working estate still guided by the seasons, with an impressive mansion and Home Farm.
The mansion, at the heart of this estate, is evidence of Elsie Bambridge's success in creating a home.
Intimate rooms contrast with beautiful and unexpected Georgian interiors, including Soane's breathtaking Yellow Drawing Room and wonderful plunge bath. The fascinating basement corridor offers a glimpse into life below stairs.
Stroll around the colourful parterre garden and wander through the Pleasure Grounds to the walled garden, abundant with fruit, vegetables and herbaceous borders.
Home Farm contrasts the traditional farmyard with the noisy modern piggery and cattle sheds.
Stride out across the landscape park, among the rare-breed cattle, and imagine the previous owners planning their visions of grand avenues and spectacular vistas. Originally a small deer park surrounded by open fields, Wimpole parkland has changed many times throughout its history. Different owners employed different landscape designers and gardeners, who each left their mark on the landscape.
This 18th century walled garden was constructed by William Eames and features Sir John Soane’s glasshouse. This is where we produce our young plants for the vegetable plots. Last year we delivered in excess of 450kg of produce to our restaurant. We're currently supplying cut flowers to the hall.
Pleasure grounds - In the 18th century these grounds were where the family took evening strolls and enjoyed picnics. They contained many rare, exotic and unusual plants sourced from all over the world. These plants were discovered by plant hunters who travelled the world. Why not wander down our new plant hunter path?

Guide Bridge Station was built by the Sheffield, Ashton-under-Lyne and Manchester Railway on its new line from Ardwick Junction, near to the Manchester and Birmingham Railway's terminus at Store Street, (now Piccadilly) to Sheffield and opened as Ashton and Hooley Hill on 11 November 1841 when the line opened as far as Godley Toll Bar. It was renamed Ashton in February 1842 and became Guide Bridge on 14 July 1845 when the line was extended to Sheffield.
The station originally had a 4 platform configuration with a large office on the southern side. However, the southern (former fast line) platforms were decommissioned and the tracks lifted in 1984-85 as part of layout alterations associated with the changeover from 1500V DC to 25KV AC working on the Hadfield line, with demolition of the buildings following a few years later. The area has been covered and used as access for the southern platform, but some evidence remains of the previous two tracks. The junction at the country end of the station was also remodelled in 2011 to allow Stalybridge line trains to cross the junction at 30 mph (max) rather than 15 mph as previously.
With the electrification of the Manchester–Sheffield (via Woodhead) line in the early 1950s, Guide Bridge, already a major centre of railway operations, increased in importance. Express trains called here, as well as EMU trains between Manchester London Road and the north Derbyshire towns of Glossop and Hadfield. There were also Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) services from Manchester London Road (Piccadilly) to Macclesfield (via Rose Hill Marple - closed in January 1970), Stockport Edgeley to Stalybridge and to Oldham (via the Oldham, Ashton & Guide Bridge Railway, which closed to passengers in 1959). The station was also where Express Trains to and from Manchester Central on the London Marylebone route, changed locomotive. Drawn by a Bo-Bo or Co-Co Electric Locomotive from Sheffield, a steam or in later years diesel Locomotive would take the train the final few miles to Manchester Central and vice versa. The Woodhead Line was busy with goods traffic, especially with coal traffic from South Yorkshire to Lancashire power stations. The station also accepted goods under British Railways "Passenger" freight service and had a licensed Buffet.
There was a large marshalling yard about a mile east of Guide Bridge at Dewsnap. There was also a stabling point immediately to the east of Guide Bridge station where engines could be fuelled. Guide Bridge was also where the local Retail Coal Merchants transferred Coal from British Rail Coal wagons, carefully weighed into One Hundredweight sacks for delivery to homes around Ashton, Audenshaw and Denton. Express passenger trains via the Woodhead line ceased operation on 5 January 1970, but Dewsnap sidings and Guide Bridge stabling point were busy until the final closure of the Woodhead Line (east of Hadfield) on 20 July 1981. The Class 76 electric locomotives were a frequent sight here, along with Class 25, Class 40 and numerous others classes of diesels.
