View from Mt Difficulty Vineyard in Bannockburn where we are having lunch. April 27, 2016 Central Otago in the South Island of New Zealand.
The Cellar Door at Mt Difficulty Wines is known as much for its dramatic views of rugged rock and thyme landscapes as it is for its stylish wine and food.
The unique microclimate of the Bannockburn area is partially created by the presence of Mount Difficulty which overlooks the southern Cromwell basin, and is the namesake of Mt Difficulty Wines. Mount Difficulty is integral in providing low rainfall and humidity for the region. Bannockburn enjoys hot summers, a large diurnal temperature variation and long cool autumns; conditions which bring the best out of the Pinot Noir grapes. These conditions, along with soils which are ideal for viticulture, provide an excellent basis not only for Pinot Noir, but also for Pinot Gris, Riesling, and Chardonnay. The soils are a mix of clay and gravels, but all feature a high pH level; grapes produce their best wines on sweet soils.

Located on the Historic Downtown Square in Gallatin, TN and within the Gallatin Commercial Historic District listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), Swaney's (as it's commonly referred to) has been a staple since the 1950's (with the building having been constructed circa 1870). Originally a prescription drug store with a soda fountain, it became a very popular spot to enjoy malts, shakes and beverages. With its reopening as a full restaurant in 2015 in its original location across from Gallatin's historic courthouse, it continues to provide a place for family & friends to gather for great food & fun!
The historic district referenced above that includes this great old building (and sign) was listed on the NRHP on October 23, 1985. Some of the information above was taken from the original documents submitted for listing consideration found here:https://npgallery.nps.gov/NRHP/AssetDetail/28920437-adb0-4fe1-8aee-29a291cd7be1

A little history
Vintage Olivetti Typewriter (Lettera 35)
If there is a historical and reference brand of typewriters it is Olivetti, just by referring to this brand we already know that it is part of history. Olivetti was an Italian factory specializing in the development of typewriters, opening its doors in 1908, it designed various models with various features and functions so that the user could do his typing work.
The first machines of the Italian brand were heavy, but already in the 50s they began to create light machines weighing only 3kg, which made it easy to transport, in addition, the design and functionality made Olivetti one of the main factories of these artifacts.
The Olivetti Lettera 35 is a portable mechanical typewriter created in 1972 by Mario Bellini and released to the public in 1974.
The retro and old design of olivetti machines make them an ideal ornamental element for any decorative space, however, due to the quality of the product, it is an ideal work tool for those who like to type.

This Sunday will be 11 years since I spent my last Father's day with my daddy. If I had known in less than a month he would be gone I would've done things differently. I would have hugged him more, told him how much I loved him. How much I needed him to stay. He's missed so much by being gone. Sometimes that's what I write in his cards the things that he's missed. I almost always end by saying that I still miss him, I still love him and I'm still sorry. And I always will be.
Excerpt from www.peachcountryfarmmarket.com/_OurStory.php:
Our talented farmer Chester invites you to try the fruit that he proudly grows for his family and customers.
When we first started farming in 1955, the family of Kowalik farms knew that great tasting fruit needed 3 things: ideal climate, healthy soil and a talented farmer. We have all that combined to give you the taste of “Kowality fruit.”
Chester, along with his wife Phyllis & their daughter Laura opened Peach Country Farm Market in the summer of 1990 as a way for people near and far to enjoy their fruit. Laura is grateful that her children were able to grow up with the family farm experience. Len works closely with his dad Chester to maintain a sense of tradition and innovation in the orchard.
Fast-forward to today, our family still continues the farming operation. Laura has been successfully managing the store for over 30 years alongside her daughter, Krystyna (4th generation). We are proud to celebrate over 30 years of Peach Country Farm Market!
I remember that my daddy smiled at me that day. And I learned that you can hide a lot behind a smile. Because the next day my daddy took his life. I miss my daddy. I loved my daddy but it wasn't enough. Suicide doesn't take the pain away, it passes it on to someone else.

This is me of course with my Daddy. I don't know how old I was here but I love this picture of me & him. I want to share our story with y'all. Every time I post this picture I will tell y'all a little bit about us & our lives together. I will start by saying this by the time I was born my daddy was a broken man with a broken heart & life. As a little girl I watched him sometimes when he didn't know that I was even around. And what I learned I have carried with me & some of it I've even repeated. Don't get me wrong I loved this man more than words can describe. He was my first love & my first tragedy. He was a good man & a good Daddy but with years full of bad memories that scarred & tormented him. And where he left off I eventually picked up & carried on. I look like my Daddy & deep down there will always be something about him & I that mirrors each other. So if you're interested in our story when you see this post I'll tell you something new about us.
Some of you know our story...
Everything started here on Flickr.
He crossed the ocean to meet me. I never got nervous with that because I felt like that wouldn't be the first time I would see him...
The very first time we looked at each other I felt like I knew him for a lifetime before we met.
He really had me at hello.
Happy Valentine's Day!
The First Baptist Church is a landmark of downtown Fort Lauderdale. This mid-century church, built in a style typical of Anglican Baptist churches, was recently renovated and expanded to include several community centers, including a great Student Life Center. Christmas is a favorite time for family visits to the church because of its annual pageant, which has been held every year since 1983. The church is also known for its spectacular Easter and Christmas community concerts.
First Baptist Fort Lauderdale is a church in South Florida led by Lead Pastor James Welch and his wife Amy. The church gathers at our 7-acre treasure right in the heart of the city!
First Baptist Fort Lauderdale has a rich and inspiring story built around the “Jesus First life.” The story began in 1907 when a handful of people had a dream to help their friends know God and discover their purpose in life. They believed the church was more than a building you come to, it was designed to be a community that you belong to. When the church first started gathering and serving its neighbors the city of Fort Lauderdale was not yet incorporated.
We are affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, which means we cooperate and collaborate with more than 40,000 other SBC churches to bring healing to those who are hurting through education, disaster relief, humanitarian aid, missionary immersion and so much more.

I had the pleasure of meeting new friends and portrait clients James & Bethany on Saturday. The love these two have for one another was so inspiring to be around! After 9 years of marriage, James still opens the door for Bethany when she’s entering or exiting their vehicle, and I noticed several other little things during our session. What an inspiration they are! This is what love looks like. Thank you James & Bethany for choosing me to capture your love and relationship, I’m looking forward to the next session!
The exhibition features rarely seen original objects and examines climate change, astronomy and stories of creation, craft, technology and architecture.
The exhibition has been developed under the guidance of the QVMAG Aboriginal Reference Group and with the support of the Tasmanian Community Fund.
Here is a contemporary elder explaining the purpose of the exhibition to the visitors. For the most up to date information about the community and activities, I refer you to this Facebook page:

Finally, I dedicate these photographs to the memory of recently departed "Elder and singer of songs" Ronnie Summers. www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=UKZTH3ZGobY

Punggol – The Massacre Beach in Singapore during World War II
An unusual discovery at Punggol beach dug up a slice of history that many Singaporeans are not aware of. Punggol beach used to be one of the Japanese killing fields during the Second World War.
History of Punggol:
During World War II, on Feb 28, 1942, about 1,000 Chinese from the area around Upper Serangoon Road were rounded up by the Japanese as part of the Sook Ching or mopping-up operation.
All were executed at this beach as punishment for their resistance activities.
Punggol Beach is now on the National Heritage Board's list of historical sites.
The marking of the Punggol beach massacre site was part of a series organised in 1995 to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the end of World War II. Source – AsiaOne

Currently known as The Chanler, it was originally built in 1870 and known for 50+ years as Cliff Lawn.
John Winthrop Chanler, a NY politician, had Cliff Lawn built as a summer 'cottage'.
The property was purchased in 2000 ... a 3 year redevelopment completed in 2003 produced this gem.

Peregrine Winery, Gibbston Valley. January 25, 2015 New Zealand, on our Journey to Queenstown.
Peregrine Winery is located in the Gibbston region of Central Otago near Queenstown, deep in the heart of the South Island of New Zealand. Snow capped mountains dominate the landscape for at least 8 months of the year, with vineyards in the valleys below - a continental climate giving the area hot and dry summers with cool nights.
Peregrine's prime focus is on growing premium Pinot Noir and white varieties from both their estate managed vineyards which are meticulously hand tended in a sustainable manner. Peregrine has its vineyards in the two top regions of the area, Gibbston.
The stunning Peregrine Winery building has won international awards and accolades for its design and construction, which evokes the wingspan of a Peregrine falcon as it glides on thermal air rising from the heated land.

When you think Tim McGraw, I hope you think my favorite song
The one we danced to all night long,
The moon like a spotlight on the lake
When you think happiness, I hope you think that little black dress
Think of my head on your chest, and my old faded blue jeans
When you think Tim McGraw, I hope you think of me...
Sadly, even good things come to an end.
