ANYONE MAKING MULTIPLE FAVES WITHOUT COMMENTS WILL SIMPLY BE BLOCKED
The mausoleum was built for Charles Howard, 3rd Earl of Carlisle (d.1738) and the magnificence of its design, setting and workmanship (it is said to have cost over £10,000) played a major part in spreading the fashion for such monuments. Horace Walpole famously described it as a building which ‘would tempt one to be buried alive’.
Castle Howard is a stately home in North Yorkshire, England, within the civil parish of Henderskelfe, located 15 miles (24 km) north of York. It is a private residence and has been the home of the Carlisle branch of the Howard family for more than 300 years. Castle Howard is not a fortified structure, but the term "castle" is sometimes used in the name of an English country house that was built on the site of a former castle.
it was in this moment that Howard paused to contemplate on the meaning of life. There must be more than endless hours of flight, the ongoing search for a mate and avoiding humans, something deeper, a higher purpose to it all...
then he saw a week old French fry

1941 Packard Darrin
One-Eighty Convertible Victoria
The Packard Darrin was a special automobile in the maker’s lineup. It was a blending of all the glory that was Packard in the Classic Era with all the chutzpa that was the stock in trade of Howard “Dutch” Darrin. The result was glamor with lots of pizzazz.
Without Darrin’s insistence, the car wouldn’t have been built at all. Following his days in Paris, Darrin had settled in Hollywood; immediately established himself as the purveyor of custom coachwork to the stars. The polo playing-Darrin was quickly accepted by the movie crowd; his well-cultivated French accent fit in perfectly. He named his shop “Darrin of Paris.”

The barriers are down, momentarily hindering the pedestrians on their way to start an early shift as OL49 No. 59 bursts over the crossing on leaving Wolsztyn.
In the depths of winter, the 05.34 service to Leszno departed well before any hint of dawn in the sky. The level crossing lights at the end of the station yard gave just enough illumination to capture the loco which was already barrelling through at speed, with scant regard for the slow shutter speeds being used to record her progress through the darkness.

Howard Mausoleum
Built in 1729 stands on a hill in the grounds of Castle Howard and is raised on a wide grassy terrace encircled with a stone wall. A massive double flight of steps leads up to the main chamber of the mausoleum which is encircled with a peristyle of Doric columns and crowned with a shallow dome. Inside it has a coffered ceiling and richly carved entablature supported by Corinthian columns. This circular funerary chamber rests on the great square plinth formed by the vaulted burial vault below. The latter contains sixty three catacombs.
The mausoleum was built for Charles Howard, 3rd Earl of Carlisle (d.1738) Horace Walpole famously described it as a building which ‘would tempt one to be buried alive.
This is beautiful Howard Lake in North Cascades National Park. This was the second hike of the day, and a bit more challenging than the first...but in the end, it was well worth it. To get here, you follow part of the Pacific Crest Trail...very remote...very peaceful...and I loved all the yellow lily pods that were just beginning to bloom.

In these troubled times I expect that there a few political leaders and scientists who feel as though they are carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders. This fabulous fountain has dominated the southern gardens at Castle Howard since the 1840's.

I bought a set of six vintage dolls to hang on my Christmas tree some years ago. I decided to name them after the six wives of Henry VIII. This one is Catherine Howard.
"Catherine Howard was Queen of England from July 1540 until November 1541 as the fifth wife of King Henry VIII. She was the daughter of Lord Edmund Howard and Joyce Culpeper, a cousin to Anne Boleyn, and the niece of Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk. Thomas Howard was a prominent politician at Henry's court."
Inside the great hall, the Dome is 70 feet in height, a fact which cannot give a true impression of the remarkable sense of spaciousness and light that it brings to the Great Hall below. The four large painted figures at the meeting of the columns that support the Dome represent the four elements; Earth, Fire, Air, and Water. They are by Giovanni Pellegrini, who worked at Castle Howard from 1709 - 1712.

Grain empties for Alberta, MN lead by CSX GEs, cruise through Howard Lake on the Wayzata Sub. I was on my way back home from seeing the 261 and took a detour when I heard there was a grain train coming, surprised it was a YN2 GE leading in Waverly so I sped off to Howard Lake to cross off a shot I have wanted for a quite sometime and it was just before more clouds roll in.

Castle Howard is a stately home in North Yorkshire, 15 miles (24 km) north of York. It is a private residence, and has been the home of the Carlisle branch of the Howard family for more than 300 years.
Castle Howard is not a true castle, but this term is also used for English country houses erected on the site of a former military castle. It was where the Earl of Sandwich lived for a long time.
It is familiar to television and film audiences as the fictional "Brideshead", both in Granada Television's 1981 adaptation of Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited and a two-hour 2008 remake for cinema.

Howard George ran a sporting goods store and gun shop on Frankford Avenue in Philadephia. The area was once a thriving community filled with shops, factories and working class households. Although there are still many business that thrive along the Avenue, the former glory of the neighborhood has long since vanished. After Howard George closed his business, this was the site of Jack's Camera Shop. You can see a Jack's sign turned upside down in the window. After Jack's, a variety store occupied the building. Now it is abandoned, neglected and up for sale. I can only imagine the business that was conducted here years ago.
