At long last, made it to this infamous location on the NC500 route with that red roof - simply a matter of driving around the road far enough, something I've never done before. I would like to think that the owner of this property is having a bit of a laugh at all the tourists wanting its photograph and he has attached a ladder to the roof!
Thanks to SkyeBaggie for title inspiration!
This is for my son-in-law Pierre. He purchased some acreage on which he is planning to build the new family home. This is only one view of course but no matter what direction, the views are all equally wonderful. This would be the 'back yard'. I could certainly live with a view like that. Couldn't you? :-D

Turn up the music
Let's get out on the floor
I'll let it move it
Come and give me some more
Watch me getting physical and out of control
There's people watching me
I never miss a beat
Steal the night
Kill the lights
Feel it under your skin
Time is right
Keep it tight
Cos it's pulling you in
Wrap it up
Can't stop cos it feels like a overdose
(Feels like an overdose)
Oh, oh, evacuate the dancefloor
Oh, oh, I'm infected by the sound
Oh, oh, stop, this beat is killing me
Hey Mister DJ let the music take me underground
My body's aching
System overload
Temperature's rising
I'm about to explode
Watch me I'm intoxicated
Taking the show
It got me hypnotized
Everybody step aside
Revisiting forests and woodlands that I've wandered over the years. Here, it's the Smith Property off Watson Road east of Guelph.
The Riverside walk, (ride) by the river Tern at Attingham Park, Shropshire, a National Trust property.
No dogs
No rollerblading
No cycling
No garbage throwing
No picking twigs or flowers
No trade, no begging
No smoking hookah
No picnic
No shouting
No loud music or noice
A potted history from the National Trust website.
Barrington court was bought in 1907 by Julia Woodward, who gifted it to the National Trust as one of its earliest acquisitions.
Barrington Court estate is the vision of Colonel AA Lyle & his architect JE Forbes & they visited in 1915.
In 1920 Colonel Lyle has signed a 99 year full repairing lease for £500 a year. By 1925 the Colonel had spent around £100, 000.
(see previous photos loaded) Strode House on the left & Court House on the right were completely revived. The later is now being repaired, hence the scaffolding. The two properties are joined by a covered walkway.
After the death of Colonel Lyle his son, Sir Ian Lyle, took over. He became president of Tate & Lyle and was knighted for services to the sugar industry.
In 1991 the lease ended & reverted to the National Trust & was opened to visitors in 2009.
The gardens were magnificent with thousands of daffodils & narcissi.
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, is also known as The Guitar Hotel due to its tower constructed to resemble a guitar, is a hotel and casino resort in Hollywood, Florida, United States, located on 100 acres (40 ha) of the Hollywood Reservation of the Seminole Tribe of Florida. The property currently has one hotel tower, a 140,000 sq ft (13,000 m2) casino, a large poker room, a 4-acre (1.6 ha) lagoon-style pool facility with a center bar, and many private restaurants, shops, spa, cabanas, bars, and nightclubs, and the Hard Rock Event Center. A large expansion was completed in October 2019.
The resort currently has a 12-story "classic Hard Rock Hotel" with 469 guest rooms and suites. Guests are greeted by a 50-foot (15 m) tall signature Hard Rock guitar, (based on a famous Gibson electric guitar model) at the entrance of the hotel, along with a massive LED advertising screen at the front of the main parking garage. The resort has 120,000-square-foot (11,000 m2) of meeting space, including a 38,000-square-foot (3,500 m2) exhibit hall.
The Hard Rock's $1.5 billion property expansion project added a 450-foot (140 m) tower designed to appear as a guitar, with lights providing the imagery of guitar strings, and 638 rooms alongside a seven-story, 168-room "Oasis Tower" overlooking the pool cabanas— open on October 24, 2019, several months in advance of Super Bowl LIV being held in Miami on February 2, 2020. The expansion also included a 42,000-square-foot (3,900 m2) "Rock Spa", and over 20 new dining and nightlife destinations. Between the existing 12-story hotel, new Guitar Hotel, and new Oasis Tower, over 1,200 hotel rooms became available in October 2019.
On May 9, 2014, Seminole Chief Jim Billie announced a $100 million upgrade of the tribe's casinos, with much of that spent on the Hard Rock Hollywood location, including improved entryways, center pool bar, pool facility upgrades, updated hotel room, and suite interiors, and a new restaurant. As of March 2019, the tribe's upgrade budget was significantly increased to over $2.4 billion, split mainly between this location and the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Tampa.
The current casino layout covers over 140,000 sq ft (13,000 m2) featuring slot machines and various table games including blackjack, baccarat, mini-baccarat, Pai Gow poker, Let It Ride, and three-card poker. The casino does not have live craps and roulette, although there are electronic versions of those games available. As of June 2018, the poker room is located in a former ballroom area, relocated from its prior venue due to ongoing construction work.
Blackjack is the most popular card game in the United States and was an addition to the casino. In a deal valued at $1.1 billion, former Governor Charlie Crist gave the Seminole Tribe a license for blackjack in its casinos. In exchange, The Seminole Tribe loaned the State of Florida $1.1 billion over the course of two years. On July 3, 2008, the Florida Supreme Court ruled that the governor's agreement was unconstitutional, but table games continue to operate because the Federal Department of the Interior approved the now-invalid pact with the state. The addition of blackjack to the Hard Rock casinos in Hollywood and Tampa gave credibility to its claim of being a major gambling destination.[
Hard Rock Live is a 7,000 seat multi-purpose theater, which opened on October 25, 2019, with a concert by Maroon 5. The theater replaced a 5,500 seat arena (razed in March 2018 as part of the property-wide expansion) of the same name, which hosted different types of events including musical acts, comedians, boxing, and other smaller events, along with a residency by Billy Joel. During construction of the new theater, events were held at the temporary 3,500 seat Hard Rock Event Center, which hosted acts including Britney Spears on her Piece of Me Tour.
The 69th edition of the Miss Universe competition was held on May 16, 2021, at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino where Zozibini Tunzi of South Africa crowned her successor Andrea Meza of Mexico at the end of the event.
Model Anna Nicole Smith, who was staying at the resort, died in her hotel suite on February 8, 2007. An autopsy ruled her death was caused by an accidental drug overdose from prescription drugs.

Excerpt from heritageburlington.ca:
A very large two-storey cross-gabled brick structure on a rubblestone foundation, built between 1890 and 1900 in a unique H-shaped plan. Two gabled wings projecting towards the Guelph Line are decorated with "gingerbread" bargeboard. Between the large gables is a small stilted gable, with similar decorative bargeboard and an arched window. The side elevations both have their rooflines broken by two gables. The gables on these side elevations have gingerbread that is quite different from that of the front elevation, above arched windows. The other windows have segmental arches and have cut-out trim in the wood frames above each window. All the windows are one-over-one wood sash and have radiating brick voussoirs of rough or rock-faced relief brick and stone sills. The rather unassertive entrance doors at the front and side also have cut--out trim and voussoirs, like the windows.
Situated on a rise of land in Lowville Heights, between the Lowville Heights Golf Course and the Lowville United Church, with a magnificent view including Mount Nemo. This house is a strong asset to the heritage character of Lowville, especially in relation to the two immediately neighbouring properties, both designated: the Lowville United Church and the former Manse. Its spacious setting, with plantings of traditional shrubs, perennials, and mature trees, makes a strong contribution to the heritage landscape of this part of the historic Guelph Line.

I managed to take a quick walk on the golf course today while it was still sunny. Later it clouded up and started to rain. I don't play golf and have no intention to ever do it but I like the golf course because I think it's beautiful. The sign basically says that the place is private property (as it belongs to the local golf club) but that you are allowed to use the public paths which lead across the golf couse, as long as you don't step on the fairway and keep your dog on lead. It also says that if you cross the golf course you do it at your own risk, which means that if you are hit by a golf ball it's your own fault and not theirs. :)
