"You did the right thing
covered your scars
challenge your faith and close your eyes driving cars
for all that they knew, you were safe home
But you went trough hell whenever you were left alone
And you could see where I had been
from the pictures that they took
I tried to look positive of things
Face myself but didn't look"
There are several things to say about my April's reflections. But, I just found something to say better than I can do by myself. I hope you enjoy!
Há tanto o que ser dito sobre minhas reflexões de abril. Mas, eu encontrei algo que possa dizer bem melhor do que eu poderia fazer com minhas próprias palavras. Espero que gostem.
Tenham um ótimo final de semana!
I wish you all an amazing weekend!
Obrigado!!!

Victoria and Albert Museum:
Examples of the works of Art in the Museum – South Kensington Museum – Published in 2 Volumes in 1881 – Book 1
Sometime ago I posted some of the illustrations from the above book and I hoped that would be able to find them physically in the museum and photograph them. I took the second set of 15 illustrations from this book and went on the V & A website; Search the Collections. My results were based upon the following criteria:
(1) Items I couldn’t find anywhere
(2) Items that were in storage
(3) Items I did locate and photograph.
So I will be posting them, along with their locations in the museum, against the original plate and photograph from storage (where possible). The original price and any further information I might find.
One thing I didn’t count on, was that internal renovations would alter the interior of the building so drastically. I have found it very difficult to pin some of these locations down but in the main they have been found which now completes Volume 1.
Whittington Manor was built in 1310 and still has many original features. Nowadays it is a pub/restaurant.
Gastown is the original settlement that became the core of the creation of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Currently, it is a national historic site and a neighbourhood in the northwest end of Downtown Eastside, adjacent to Downtown Vancouver.
World's first steam powered clock
Historic Gastown
Vancouver, British Columbia
Canada
The insides of this clock is where the magic begins....
Built in 1977. Raymond Saunders' first steam clock was built in 1977 to solve the issue of a steam vent in a popular sidewalk for the renovated Gastown district of Vancouver. Owned by the City of Vancouver, BC Canada
The steam clock's plaque reads:
THE GASTOWN STEAM CLOCK
Designed and built by
Raymond L. Saunders
Horologist
The world's first steam powered clock has been created for the enjoyment of everyone. The live steam winds the weights and blows the whistles. Every 4.5 minutes one steel weight will travel by steam power to the top of the clock. The gravity driven "falling ball" drive was 'engineered' by Douglas L. Smith. Each quarter hour the clock will sound the Westminster Chimes. The large whistle will sound once on the hour. The steam is supplied by the underground system of Central Heat Distributor's Limited. The component parts cost $42,000 and the clock weighs over two tons.
A few years ago the clock was refit and is not entirely steam powered. It also has three small electric motors to help operate two internal fans, one of which blows the steam out the top, and another that controls the valves that play the tunes on the five steam whistles mounted atop the clock case.
The large central whistle, which was taken off the CPR steam tug Naramata, counts off the full hours while the four auxiliary whistles chime the Westminster Quarters every quarter hour. The number of chimes matches the number of quarter hours that have passed.

Campiglia marittima, that is of the Maremma (in Latin Maritima), a medieval town considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, was already inhabited in the Etruscan and Roman times due to the wealth of minerals in the area. The first official document mentioning Campiglia dates back to 1004.
It is today considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy.
Back from another work trip to Salt Lake City. Hope everyone had a great holiday season and have a great weekend.

God, hear me!
They told me you didn't exist, and I trusted them like a jerk.
But last night, in the garnet hole, I saw your heaven.
Suddenly, I realized they were lying to me.
If I tried to take a good look
on the things you created,
I'd understand right away that those
they denied that the cat is cat.
It's strange that I had to
get to this hell,
so I can have time to see your face
I like you so much...
That's what I wanted you to know.
There's going to be a terrible battle coming up.
Who knows?
Maybe I'll come to your place tonight.
We weren't good friends,
And I'm asking, my God,
will you be waiting for me at the door?
Look, this is how I cry!
I'm the one who's here going to start whining!
If only I'd known you sooner...
let's go! We have to go now!
It's ridiculous:
When I met you,
I'm not afraid to die anymore.
goodbye!

Not too happy with how this turned out but what did I expect from a quick build and mismatched fugue parts? Oh well I suppose it isn't too bad
