Inside Fort Pickens located in the Gulf Islands National Seashore in Florida. The fort was built in 1834 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 (72000096).
From the park's web page: Fort Pickens is the largest of four forts built to defend Pensacola Bay, Florida, and its navy yard. The fort was begun in 1829, completed in 1834, and was named in honor of Major General Andrew Pickens of the South Carolina militia, who fought with distinction in several Revolutionary War battles including Cowpens and the Siege of Ninety-six. He also led several campaigns against the Cherokees, who called him "Wizard Owl."
Fort Pickens was one of only four forts in the South that was never occupied by Confederate forces during the Civil War, thanks to a heroic stand by Lieutenant Adam Slemmer with one company of artillery and a few sailors, aided by one U.S. Navy ship, the Wyandotte. Fort Pickens was as important as Fort Sumter in Charleston, S.C. during the crisis between Abraham Lincoln's election in November, 1860 and the firing on Fort Sumter on April 12. 1861. The fort was reinforced the day after Fort Sumter surrendered, preventing the Confederates from controlling Pensacola Bay and using the Pensacola Navy Yard.
Confederate troops under General Braxton Bragg crossed the bay and made a night attack on the camp of the 6th N.Y. Infantry Regiment about a mile east of the fort on October 9, 1861 in the Battle of Santa Rosa Island, involving around 1800 men and resulting in about 150 casualties. In retaliation for that attack, Federal artillery from Fort Pickens, along with the USS Richmond and USS Niagara, bombarded Confederate positions at Forts Barrancas and McRee, the navy yard, and several independent batteries spread along the bay shore on November 22 and 23, 1861. Almost 5000 shot and shell were fired at Confederate positions, causing heavy damage to both Fort McRee and the navy yard, and leading to Confederate withdrawal from Pensacola Bay in May of 1862.
Built in the age of wooden warships and cannons firing round balls, the fort underwent changes in response to advances in weapon technology following the Civil War. Armored warships (like the "ironclads" Monitor and Merrimac) with steam engines and screw propellers, as well as larger and more powerful rifled cannons, made brick and stone forts obsolete.
Ten concrete gun batteries, including one in the middle of the historic fort, were built from the 1890s through the 1940s, each a response to a particular threat. Atomic bombs, guided missiles, and long-range bombers made such forts obsolete by the end of World War II and the Army abandoned the forts. The fort became part of a popular Florida State Park until the creation of Gulf Islands National Seashore in 1971. Following extensive repairs by the National Park Service, the fort was reopened in 1976.
Found in the Corazon de Trinidad historic district which is on the National Register of Historic Places #73000482.

The word "lego" is derived from the Danish words "leg godt", meaning "play well". Manufacturing of plastic Lego bricks began in Denmark in 1947.
The largest vessel to be wrecked in the Great Lakes/Manning River area was the American registered barque Harvester. She was built in Bath, Maine in 1875 by E. & A. Sewall. She and her sister ships (Reaper and Gatherer) came to the U.S. Pacific Coast around 1886/7. The Gatherer and the Harvester were converted into barques and traded regularly from San Francisco and Puget Sound; Harvester being a regular visitor to Newcastle from 1895.
In June 1900 she was wrecked at Cape Hawke after striking Big Seal Rock off Sugarloaf Point south of Forster NSW. The full story of this vessel and her final days is contained with other images in the Album Harvester.

It is working an Avanti West Coast Rail Replacement Service, possibly to Glasgow Central on 15/03/2023. This was due to Carstairs Junction re-modelling work. Most Avanti passengers however were transferred to a Voyager which would work a diesel service via Dumfries. As regards this Bova, I was unsure of its previous identity.

Lax̱g̱altsʼap got its English name of Greenville from Methodist Missionary Alfred Green, who was based here in the late 19th century. Lax̱g̱altsʼap translates to "village on village"—the current village was built on the site of a much older one. The older village at this site, known as Gitxatʼin, was destroyed by fire. Lax̱g̱altsʼap is situated on the north side of the Nass River between Gitwinksihlkw to the east and Ging̱olx to the west. It is approximately 24 km from where the Nass empties into the Pacific Ocean at Nass Bay.
His wife - Louisa (nee ?) Calder

Their adopted son - Frank Arthur Calder, OC, Nisga’a politician, chief, businessman
(b. 3 August 1915 in Nass Harbour, B.C. - d. 4 November 2006 in Victoria, BC). Frank Calder was the first Indigenous member of the BC legislature, elected in 1949. Calder is best known for his role in the Nisga’a Tribal Council’s Supreme Court case against the province of British Columbia (commonly known as the Calder case), which demonstrated that Aboriginal title (i.e., ownership) to traditional lands exists in modern Canadian law.
(6 April 1964) - LINK to a newspaper article - Frank Clark / Frank Calder was born to speak to his people - www.newspapers.com/article/nanaimo-daily-news-frank-clark...
In 1913, Arthur Calder (or Na-qua-oon, the traditional
chief of the Nisga'a Wolf Clan) and his wife, Louisa,
paddled down the Nass River to take a job at the newly
opened salmon cannery. On the way, their small son fell out
of the canoe and drowned. And so it happened (in a story
reminiscent of the biblical account of Elizabeth's
foretelling of the Immaculate Conception) that about 18
months later, an old woman in the village of Gingolx had a
powerful dream in which she visualized Louisa's youngest
sister, Emily, conceiving a son who would carry the "chiefly
spirit" of Na-qua-oon's dead child. That's why, in a
traditional adoption ceremony in 1915, Job and Emily Clark
gave their third son, Frank, to Arthur and Louisa to raise
as their own child. LINK - alt.obituaries.narkive.com/GeHhjE0E/frank-calder-politici...
In 1915, a Nisga'a matriarch had a dream in the village of Gingolx. Her dream was so powerful, she commanded a young man to row her 11 kilometers along the Nass River to the home of Chief Nagwa'un (Arthur Calder). She carried urgent news for the chief's wife, Louisa. The matriarch told Louisa that her youngest sister Emily was pregnant with her third child. She predicted that child would be male and would bear the spirit of the son Chief Nagwa'un and Louisa had lost earlier, drowned in the Nass. That baby boy was born on August 3, 1915, at Nass Harbour Cannery to Job and Emily Clark. By way of traditional adoption, he was raised by Chief Nagwa'un and Louisa Calder. As a baby, Frank Calder was presented to a gathering of elders discussing the issue of the Nisga'a Land Claim, a cause which some likened to an "immovable mountain". There, Chief Nagwa'un famously declared, "This boy is going to learn the laws of the k'amksiiwaa, the white people. And when he comes home he's going to move the mountain." At the age of seven, Frank was sent south to Coqualeetza Residential School at Sardis. He returned each summer, however, to fish the Nass with his father or work in the cannery. Frank's long and distringuished life was marked by a series of significant "firsts". He was the first status Indian to study at Chilliwack High School. The first admitted to the University of British Columbia. In 1949, Frank became the first Aboriginal person to be elected to British Columbia's legislature and the first appointed a Minister of the Crown in Canada. Frank served in the legislature for 26 years. In 1952, Frank addressed the legislature and reminded his fellow members that they are newcomers in this land. He began by speaking in the Nisga'a language, paused and said: "Mr. Speaker, for those who have arrived in B.C. more recently..." and continued in English. In 1955, after nearly a century, the Nisga'a Land Committee was reformed as the Nisga'a Tribal Council and it elected Frank its first president. He served for 20 years.
Among Frank's many awards and honours are:
Officer, Order of Canada
Aboriginal Order of Canada
Inductee to Canada's First Nations's Hall of Fame
Doctor of Divinity
Doctor of Laws
Licentiate in Theology
National Aboriginal Achivement Award, and
President Emeritus, Nisga'a Nation
Yet for all his work and honours, Frank Calder will forever be remembered for his roles in the settlement of the Nisga'a "Land Question" and the 1973 Supreme Court of Canada decision that bears his name. After the British Columbia Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal both rejected the claim, the case was appealed to the Supreme Court of Canada and led to the Calder Decision. This landmark decision established, for the first time, that Aboriginal Title exists in modern Canadian law. The decision not only opened the possibility of a new future for British Columbia's First Nations - it reverberated across Canada and around the world. It provided the legal foundation on which the B.C. treaty process started after 113 years of opposition by provincial and colonial authorities, and led to the landmark Nisga'a Final Agreement - British Columbia's first modern treaty.

KINCOLITH - village at the mouth of the Nass River was founded by Christian Nisgha in the last century. In pre-contact times the site was not settled, but people came here seasonally to gather shellfish and crabs. Because of its' importance as a food source and its' location at the mouth of the oolichan-rich Nass River, the place was at times contested between the various peoples of the area (Tsimshian, Haida, Nisgha), and violent incidents often took place. Spelling changed to Gingolx (Community) per Nisga'a Treaty, effective 11 May 2000. It was located about fifty miles north of Prince Rupert, B.C. - In 1947 the population was 365. LINK to a photo of the Village of Gingolx (Kincolith, BC) taken May 1923 - search.nbca.unbc.ca/uploads/r/northern-bc-archives-specia...
"KINCOLITH" is the anglicized spelling for the Nisga'a name, Gingolx, so named after an historic battle between the Nisga'a and the Haida, and following which the scalps of the defeated Haida were hung on poles and erected at this site on a rock bluff. This practice was carried out as a warning to any further raids. [Gin/ to feed, present, it could also mean 'place of'; golx/ scalp]. This site was originally the clan resource territory of the Gisk'aast, but was later turned over to the village for sustenance. And it was because of its importance as a food source - shellfish, salmon, etc - and its location at the mouth of the oolichan-rich Nass River that the Nisga'a were at times raided by other tribes in the surrounding area - the Tsimshian, Haida, and Tlingit.

I got a 90's Barbie® fever~! I've now come full circle, back to collecting the dolls that started it all for me, lol.
Growing up I never got the chance to own a doll with the 'Bend and Move' body, and I said if I'd ever go back to collecting the older dolls I might as well go for the ones that are articulated, lol.
This doll right here might probably be one of my favorite Barbie dolls I now own, my brothers were somehow obsessed with NBA(??!) and the Chicago Bull and we used to have a random NBA team uniform lying around that I would occasionally wear as a casual outfit outdoors so this brings out so many memories, lol.
Being a Taurus I also instantly respond to a bull, horns and this much RED so there you have it!!XPXDXDXD

Produced from the original negative in my collection.
This is the second known photograph of ‘Old Biddy’ (aka Bridget Goodwin), the well-known West Coast gold digger of more than 30 years. Taken by James Ring Studios, it was registered for copyright protection on 31 July 1893.
‘Old Biddy’ was quite a character, she smoked a pipe, had a great fondness for gin and although she was small in stature she held her own among the goldmining community. Not much is known about her early life, but she is believed to have been born in Dublin sometime between 1802 and 1827. Being poor and illiterate her options were few, so she moved to Australia to take advantage of the gold mining boom and eventually arrived in Nelson in the mid-1860s.
During her journeys she found two men who travelled with her. Not much is known about the trio, but it is understood that they accepted her leadership in the backbreaking work that was goldmining in the area around Reefton and the West Coast. In the hope of finding elusive chunks of gold they would spend hours standing in freezing rivers, repetitively scooping up rocks and mud in heavy pans.
The trio never made much money and the little that they did earn was often spent on drinking large quantities of alcohol. By the Victorian standards of the day Biddy would have been considered an ‘immoral’ woman, living with two men and unmarried, with some people saying that her partner was a man named ‘Jack’ or ‘Bill’. Although it is possible that she was married at some point earlier in her life, no children have ever been recorded.
Despite those Victorian qualms about her private life she was well liked and well known. Her reputation for being tough in the face of poverty and hardship, her ability to stand up to the other gold miners (many of whom had long criminal records), her loyalty, hospitality and cleanliness all won the respect and admiration of the people of the area. She died in Reefton on 19 October 1899 between the ages of 72 and 96 years.
