Veggies from Farmers Market.
John, a friend of mine, from Romania, buys his veggies from a market whose owner drives 50-60 miles outside of Bucharest to buy directly from farmers and sell in the capital city.
When I saw those veggies and the salad, I wished
I can Time Travel to my country to taste it.

The John Oliver Cabin was constructed in the early 1820’s by John Oliver and his wife Lucretia. The Oliver's were the first permanent white settlers of Cades Cove, which is now part of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

Thanks for viewing.
Blue John is a very rare form of Flourite, known for it's purple and/or yellow banding. It is found only in the Blue John and Treak Cliff caverns in Castelton, Derbyshire. Niqui and I have lived all around the country but I was brought up in Sheffield and always loved visiting the caves when I was a kid. Measuring only 5cm across, this has been with us since we moved away from the area 20 years ago, but is my link back to my childhood and old stomping grounds.
I am raiding the 2014 archives for this week's Fence Friday shot. The John Oliver Cabin was built in the early 1820’s by John Oliver and his wife, Lurena. It is one of multiple historic structures that are part of the Cade's Cove loop drive, located in the Tennessee portion of Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

We left early to drive down to Hobart (where I took the photos of the racing yachts). The forecast was promising and as we made our way down the highway the mist was just lifting from the mountains in the distance.
In the background is the southern end of Ben Lomond, and in the foreground the vast expanse of plains across the Northern Midlands of Tasmania. There are few trees today, but once (when Aboriginal people lived here) it was a dense forest. In fact we are not far from the hamlet named in the early colonial years as Epping Forest. Almost completely devoid of trees now - sheep grazing land.
Those trees do remind me of John Glover (1767-1849) though. Glover painted a scene not far from this location and looking in the other direction towards the Great Western Tiers range. And there were still plenty of trees then. I'll put a link to his painting below.

The John Marty Homestead near Winnett, Montana. Like so many that were enticed to Montana in the early part of the 20th Century, they came and gave it their all. Living in a country that was still wild and could be brutally cold in the winter and with no neighbors nearby, it was a tough life and many abandoned their homesteads.
The classic western landscape see from John Ford’s Point on the edge of a plateau overlooking the Monument Valley Tribal Land. Film director John Ford used Monument Valley as a location for many Westerns between 1939 (Stagecoach) and 1960, and this site was featured often is now known as John Ford's Point. The main summits in view from here are Sentinel Mesa, West Mitten Butte, Big Indian, Merrick Butte and the Castle Rock-Stagecoach group.
Here's a rare occasion where I had to point my camera downward to photograph a belted kingfisher.

Here's a shot taken yesterday. The subject is the village church of St Johns, Wentbridge. Despite its appearance the church is a new addition to the village having been built as recently as 1874. It has however, replaced other older churches that went back as far as 1030 AD.
Church in honor of the Conception of John the Baptist.
The name of the church continues the tradition from the end of the 18th century, according to which the church of the suburban village of Bilichi was named in honor of the Prophet John, the Forerunner and Baptist of the Lord. The previous village temple was destroyed by the authorities in the 1960s.
In 2006, the construction of a large brick temple of the Conception of John the Baptist in the Byzantine style began.
Храм на честь Зачаття Іоанна Хрестителя.
Найменування храму продовжує традицію від кінця 18 ст., за якою церква приміського села Біличі називалася на честь Пророка Іоанна, Предтечі і Хрестителя Господня. Попередній сільський храм був знищений владою у 1960-і роки.
У 2006 році було розпочато зведення великого цегляного храму Зачаття Іоанна Предтечі у візантійському стилі.

After a covid year of no travel last year, happily I got out to the western United States three times this year for my mimimum annual requirement of walking in mountains. Here I am (at right) with two of my backpacking buddies at Rocky Mountain National Park last month. We just day hiked at RMNP on this trip, but are planning a gray-beard backpacking trip next summer in the Wind River Range of Wyoming. We are all hoping to earn the "I survived the 60s both times" merit badge over the next few years.
Taken a couple of days ago, an hour or so before it started to snow. The view looks across the Went valley towards the village church and a sixteenth century dwelling.

I stopped in Pawhuska, OK on my way back from a recent trip and spotted this old Ford. It had a ton of character, and I bet its owner does, too!

... is a 12-mile (19 km) long glacier, about 1 mile wide, 250 feet high at the terminus, and 200 feet deep at the water line. It begins on the east slopes of Lituya Mountain and Mount Salisbury, and trends east to the head of Johns Hopkins Inlet, 1 mile (1.6 km) southwest of the terminus of Clark Glacier and 79 miles (127 km) northwest of Hoonah. It was named after Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland in 1893 by Harry Fielding Reid. It is one of the few advancing tidewater glaciers of the Fairweather Range !
