"The Legend Of Wooley Swamp"

 

Well, if you ever go back into Wooley Swamp, well, you better not go at night

There's things out there in the middle of them woods

That'd make a strong man die from fright

Things that crawl and things that fly

Things that creep around on the ground

And they say the ghost of Lucius Clay gets up and he walks around

 

But I couldn't believe it, (I) just had to find out for myself

And I couldn't conceive it, (I) never would listen to nobody else

And I couldn't believe it, (I) just had to find out for myself

There's some things in this world you just can't explain

 

The old man lived in the Wooley Swamp way back in Booger Woods

And he never did do a lot of harm in the world

He just never did do no good

People didn't think too much of him

They all thought he acted funny

The old man didn't care about people anyway

All he cared about was his money

He'd stuff it all down into Mason jars and bury it all around

But on certain nights if the moon was right

He'd dig it up out of the ground

Then he'd pour it all out on the floor of his shack

And he'd run his fingers through it

Yeah, Lucius Clay was a greedy old man

And that's all there ever was to it

 

But I couldn't believe it, (I) just had to find out for myself

And I couldn't conceive it, (I) never would listen to nobody else

And I couldn't believe it, (I) just had to find out for myself

There's some things in this world you just can't explain

 

The Cable boys were white trash, they lived over on Carver's Creek

They were mean as a snake and sneaky as a cat

And belligerent when they'd speak

One night the oldest brother said ya'll meet me in the Wooley Swamp later

We'll take old Lucius' money and we'll feed him to the alligators

They found the old man out in the back with a shovel in his hand

And thirteen rusty Mason jars he'd just dug up out of the sand

Then they all went crazy and they beat the old man

And they picked him up off the ground

Then they threw him in the swamp and they stood there and laughed

As the black water sucked him down

And then they turned around and went back to the shack

And they picked up the money and ran

Hadn't gone nowhere when they realized

That they were running in quicksand

And they struggled and they screamed but they couldn't get away

And just before they went under

They could hear that old man laughing

In a voice as loud as thunder

 

Now that's been fifty years ago an' if you go by there yet

There's a spot in the yard in the back of that shack

Where the ground is always wet

And on certain nights if the moon is right

Down by that dark footpath

You can hear three young men screaming

And you can hear one old man laugh

 

If you ever go back into Wooley Swamp, well, you better not go at night

There's things out there in the middle of them woods

That'd make a strong man die from fright

Things that crawl and things that fly

Things that creep around on the ground

And they say the ghost of Lucius Clay gets up and he walks around

 

But I couldn't believe it, (I) just had to find out for myself

And I couldn't conceive it, (I) never would listen to nobody else

And I couldn't believe it, (I) just had to find out for myself

There's some things in this world you just can't explain

The Basilica of Saint Dominic & Porto Salvo stands as a beacon of Baroque beauty in the vibrant city of Valletta, Malta. This architectural marvel is a must-visit for any traveler seeking to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Maltese history and culture. As you step into the basilica, you are greeted by a breathtaking interior adorned with elaborate frescoes, intricate woodwork, and stunning altarpieces that tell stories of the past. The soft glow of candlelight enhances the spiritual atmosphere, inviting visitors to pause and reflect amidst the artistic splendor.

 

The basilica is not just a place of worship; it serves as a cultural hub, embodying the historical significance of the Dominican Order in Malta. Here, you can delve into the history of the church and its role in the community, including its dedication to Porto Salvo, the protector of sailors. The serene ambiance makes it an ideal spot for contemplation, and the echoes of prayers and hymns resonate throughout its hallowed spaces.

This scene caught my eye as we were driving from Aspen Grove to Princeton BC. The curve in the road and the fall colours just made this scene so beautiful 😍😍😍 Kris..

Away for a couple of days, we stayed in a provincial park yurt. This one was wheelchair accessible and was equipped with a massive deck that I'm sure will outlast the yurt itself. It was a cozy spot to be home away from home and well equipped with wood stove, propane barbecue, table and chairs, and slept up to 6 people. No electricity, though. We were very comfortable there with only the two of us - once we had heat on the second night - and I thought this point of view with the warm interior light looked inviting.

This bridge over Prairie Creek leads to some rustic wooden steps, inviting you to explore the autumn forest ahead. Photographed at Dolliver Memorial State Park near Fort Dodge, Iowa.

Rurikouji stupa at night.

The light-up was done using colour toning floodlights, which, I felt, was too flashy. This image is edited by reducing the level of saturation.

The stupa is under repair works as of this writing in September 2024.

 

The Oouchi had a tradition to provide patronage to cultural figures. Another important cultural figure would be Francisco de Xavier (1506-1552).

He first arrived at Yamaguchi in 1550 and met Oouchi Yoshitaka (大内義隆 1507 - 1551) but failed to gain patronage because he denounced male homosexuality during the meeting, which was common among the Buddhist monks and upper class Samurai at that time.

 

He left Yamaguchi for Kyoto where he was rejected and returned to Yamaguchi in 1551. He finally persuaded the Oouchi to grant a permission to propagate Christianity by shelving the sexuality matters, and was given a disused Buddhist temple. It was the first permanent Christian church in Japan.

 

It was the heyday of the Oouchi, and Oouchi Yoshitaka even tried to make Yamaguchi the new capital of Japan by inviting the Emperor from Kyoto, which was unsuccessful and triggered the demise of the Oouchi. A few months after meeting the Jesuit mission, Oouchi was killed in a civil war, and the Oouchi was destroyed eventually.

 

Oouchi's territory was occupied by the Mouri based in Hiroshima. After the battle of Sekigahara between the Tokugawa and the Toyotomi in 1603, Mouri's territory was reduced to Yamaguchi only as Mouri sided with the defeated Toyotomi.

The Mouri barely survived until the Meiji Restoration in 1868.

The lodge at Emerald Lake sure looked inviting as the temperatures began to plummet. The glow from the lights contrasted nicely with the blue hour conditions. Unfortunately, staying here was far outside our price range, so we had to settle for our warm sleeping bags instead!

A pergola provides the perfect framework for creating a cozy area in your garden. Drap it with climbing or hanging plants, comfortable seating, and pergola illuminated with soft lighting will transform a simple outdoor space into a relaxing and inviting retreat.

With the local's chairs at the entry, Mission Beach was very inviting. Had the weather cooperated, I could have stayed here and explored more.

The Norfolk Botanical Gardens incorporates numerous benches throughout. All of them are strategically placed to utilize the shades of beautiful trees, much to the appreciation of the summer-hot patrons.

I'll have a Belgium waffle and a pint of stout, please.
