From the 2008 Westford Conservation Trust calendar:
Prospect Hill Wildlife Sanctuary is in center of Westford on the highest hill in northern Middlesex County. The land was donated by Priscella Elliott in 1999 and includes 8 acres of woodland and an adjoining cornfield. The woods include a champion Shagbark Hickory tree -- the largest one in Massachusetts. The short hike is steep and once you start up the hill there is a feeling of deep woods -- right in town center.
"One hundred and fifty years ago, standing on this height, we probably could have seen the church spires of Concord. Now....it is all woods." -- From "Walking Towards Walden" by John Hanson Mitchell.
Where I spent most of my first 19 years. What you can't see is the very nice pub directly behind me.

One of the fun things we got to do at Prospect Point was sledding. In the background, you can see people spread out playing frisbee.

Prospect New Town - designed by New Urbanist gurus Duany Plater-Zyberk (www.dpz.com/) - takes some serious gambles with color and architecture, and introduces New Urbanism to an uber- suburban corner of the U.S. Love or hate it, you have to admire their cojones.

In Wapping, London. There has been a pub on this site since 1520. The first building was a haunt of smugglers and villains. The present building, which backs onto the Thames, was named after a collier moored nearby when it was built.

This place really caught my eye and I hope to get the chance to visit the place sometime. I did a litte re-touching but didn't need to much as the photographer did an awesome job with their photography.
On 3 October 1918, the 1st King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry captured Prospect Hill, after Le Catelet and Gouy had been taken by the 50th (Northumbrian) Division, the 6th Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and the 4th King's Royal Rifle Corps. The cemetery was made by the 50th Division and the 18th Field Ambulance immediately after. Plot I formed the original cemetery but this was increased after the Armistice when graves were brought in, mainly from the battlefields north of Gouy, and almost exclusively of men who died in October 1918.
The cemetery contains 538 Commonwealth burials and commemorations of the First World War. 115 of the burials are unidentified and a special memorial commemorates one casualty believed to be buried among them. A group of graves in Plot IV, Row F, are identified as a whole but not individually. The cemetery also contains the grave of one Commonwealth airman of the Second World War.
The cemetery was designed by Sir Herbert Baker

Radio Rentals has announced plans to exit its retail and online sales operations in South Australia and close its stores over the next two months.
Rental customers are not affected. The consumer rental business, which finances rental contracts through various retailers, including Radio Rentals, is provided by inRent which is owned by a separate entity and is not impacted. Rental customers should visit www.inrent.com.au for further information and FAQs.
After such a long time in business in South Australia, the decision to close our retail operations was a very difficult and emotional one. It was only taken after careful consideration and pursuit of all other strategic options including a sale.
The company will support and counsel employees who are impacted and help them to find new jobs. To that end, an external employment agency is being engaged to assist. We recommend our employees to new employers.
There will be no impact on existing inRent rental contracts. Rental customers will continue to receive the benefits of renting with inRent, including ongoing product servicing and upgrades, and customer obligations under rental contracts are ongoing. Rental customers will be contacted by inRent directly with payment options for customers who currently pay their rental in our stores and FAQs.
The head office at Main North Road, Prospect, will remain open to service rentals and for sales of ex-rental inventory. The other 12 stores throughout South Australia will close around mid-June. Radio Rentals will clear all retail stock over this period.
Radio Rentals started in Rundle Street, Adelaide, in 1958.
“Our success, as a South Australian family owned business was built around generations of wonderful employees, valued customers and business partners and a mission to make electrical and home appliances affordable and accessible to more and more homes and families,” said Managing Director, Nick Palmer.
“We take this moment to thank everyone. We look back with pride on our contribution… the jobs we created, the economic growth that we drove and the choice and services we provided to generations of South Australians.”
All gift cards will be honoured or refunded.
Queensland based counterpart R.T. Edwards will also be affected.
