As I photographed this abandoned restored church I thought what a beautiful way to think about Good Friday and Easter and the true meaning.....we can get restored, there no distance in prayer. Happy Easter my Flickr friends.
Two restored enlisted barracks housed 4 companies of the 9th Calvary after the conclusion of the American Civil War. The 9th Cavalry Regiment was one of the Army's four segregated African-American regiments and was part of what was known as the Buffalo Soldiers.
The Greyhound station was built in 1938, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993 for its architectural significance. It was restored in 2018 and now used as a venue
After being moved to a new location towards the end of last year, venerable boxcab CN 6710 has now been repainted and restored. CN 6710 was built by General Electric and delivered to the Canadian Northern as CNoR 600 in 1919. It was used on the electrified Deux-Montagnes line until being retired in 1995.
I made this for my Mama when she was battling cancer. Through it all her faith and love for the Lord never wavered. She never feared death. When she knew it was time, she said she was ready to go be with Jesus. She called it her graduation.

There dwelt a miller, hale and bold,
Beside the river Dee;
He worked and sang from morn till night -
No lark more blithe than he;
And this the burden of his song
Forever used to be:
“I envy nobody – no, not I -
And nobody envies me!”
“Thou’rt wrong, my friend,” said good King Hal,
“As wrong as wrong can be;
For could my heart be light as thine,
I’d gladly change with thee.
And tell me now, what makes thee sing,
With voice so loud and free,
While I am sad, though I am king,
Beside the river Dee?””
The miller smiled and doffed his cap,
“I earn my bread,” quoth he;
“I love my wife, I love my friend,
I love my children three;
I owe no penny I can not pay,
I thank the river Dee,
That turns the mill that grinds the corn
That feeds my babes and me.”
“Good friend,” said Hall, and sighed the while,
“Farewell, and happy be;
But say no more, if thou’dst be true,
That no one envies thee;
Thy mealy cap is worth my crown,
Thy mill my kingdom’s fee;
Such men as thou are England’s boast,
O miller of the Dee!

Van der Pekbuurt (neighbourhood).
During the entire renovation of this neighbourhood, the historic appearance of the outside of the houses has been restored. The new wooden doors, windows and frames have the original colours from the 1920s: ocher yellow, dark green and red brown.
De Van der Pekbuurt is gebouwd tussen 1918 en 1926 en is daarmee een van de eerste tuindorpen van Amsterdam. Architect Jan Ernst van der Pek ontwierp de stedenbouwkundige en architectonische opzet in 1916. Rode bakstenen muren, geglazuurde gele bakstenen banden en portieken die uit de gevels springen kenmerkten het straatbeeld. De wijk geldt als beschermd stadsgezicht.
De woonblokken hadden door de vele aanpassingen in de loop der tijd hun oorspronkelijke charme verloren. Door kunststof kozijnen en verdwenen originele details zoals dakkapelletjes, tuinmuren en voordeuren hadden de blokken een armoedige uitstraling gekregen. Ook de originele kleuren waren verdwenen.
Binnen de gehele renovatie van de wijk is aan de buitenzijde de historische uitstraling van de woningen van de Van der Pekbuurt teruggebracht. Zo hebben de nieuwe houten deuren en kozijnen de oorspronkelijke kleuren uit de jaren 1920: okergeel, donkergroen en roodbruin (architectenweb.nl).
close to a well visited museum. If only all Istanbul houses were maintained like these......might be a bit boring though :)
Carew Tidal Mill is the only restored tidal mill in Wales and one of just five in the UK.
Documentary evidence exists which shows a mill on this spot as early as 1542. The present building dates from the early 19th century. The Mill, known locally as the ‘French Mill’, possibly because the grinding stones were imported from France, was last used for milling in around 1937.
Next to the mill is French Mill House, a Victorian property that served as the miller's house.
This 1956 Studebaker Hawk hood, came with a 170hp V8 engine. It could be upgraded to 180hp with the 4 barrel addition. The very talented restoration mechanic named Robert, told me of his passion to work on such vehicles. This piece of perfection sat idol for one year in a garage as it went through its beauty treatment.
Considering the Shuswap Car Show was held at an outdoor museum, it seemed appropriate to add a local flavour. So, I combined the rare scoop with the reflection of an old and also restored wooden building.
Restored Dolmen

Sporting a "restored" nose logo, BNSF 9653 swings into the curve at Valmont with an empty coal train bound for Wyoming. While its neat to see a BN logo on the nose of an executive mac, this one definitely looks better from a distance.

Here's one of "Madam" Dior, posing.
Or watching the Gulls go by ?
Either way - its her turn !
In this post I told the story about my last minute pilgrimage to Montana Rail Link on the cusp of its flag lowering: flic.kr/p/2nLhAy6
So continuing with the series featuring one photo of each train in chronological trip order here is the fifteenth train of the trip and the fourth of Day 4. This was also the fourth and last non MRL powered train I'd photograph. An unidentified BNSF manifest rolls west through Billings Yard on MRL's First Subdivision, but the pair of orange GEs are obviously not the focus of this image.
BNSF 6989 is a decade old GE ES44C4 and contrasts greatly with number 84, an EMC SW-1 that is 73 years her senior! The little switcher was built by Electro-Motive Corporation and completed June 15, 1939 on OQrder E259 and was originally Chicago, Burlington and Quincy 9139. It later became Burlington Northern 84 until retired by the BN in November 1975. It then spent another decade on the Davenport, Rock Island and Northwestern until coming to Billings Grain Terminal. Now privately owned by friends of mine, getting to see 84 in person was another reason I wanted to make the trek over to Billings. He and his business partners hope to restore her to operation and eventually find a home on a tourist railroad or museum where she can run. To support the effort and learn more check out this link and even buy yourself a shirt, I've got one!

The waterwheel at Abbey Mill, Tintern in the Wye Valley is the only surviving one of twenty-two originally sited on the River Wye. This wheel built in 1870, was renovated in 2008.
Restoring intended value through an application of intended use.
Paper and masking tape.
Dimensions variable.
The downtown Pawhuska area has had a lot of work put into it. However, not every building and place has been restored. This old building was looking a bit tattered but still standing strong. Hopefully, we're able to keep these small downtowns alive into the future. It's a little crazy to think about how few opportunities there are outside of the big metro areas these days.

I still live, I’m just more active on Instagram mainly because Flickr, to put it bluntly, is dead as shit.
I admire the restoration that was done on this farmhouse in Laketown, Utah. A new foundation was poured next to the house which was then moved. A new porch was added and the windmill rebuilt. This is an active farm with sheep, a large garden, and a roadside produce stand. Big Creek is in the foreground.
How did a package restore my faith in humanity?
A happy girl and mom all thanks to (Nicole) flickr.com/photos/murfysflaw/ . An amazing box of clothes was waiting at our door Monday after work. We dusted off the snow and found inside the most beautiful dresses, full of bows and dots. Topping it off was this gorgeous blue coat with fur lining the hood and cuffs and a hand muff with a dog poking out of the top. I squealed with delight yelling to Loren to come and see the awesomeness I was staring at and Larra proceeded to go "pfff pff" her way of saying woof. Instantly, plans started in my head of wearing one dress to her birthday party and another for Christmas.
How did this kind act from a virtual flickr friend restore my faith in humanity? Larra spent 2 months in the NICU and for those of you who have been there you know the hell and happiness that this type of journey brings. Friends and family gifted us beautiful preemie outfits and knitted Larra adorable hats to keep my spirits high. As babies do, Larra eventually outgrew these outfits. After hearing that our neighbors coworker had triplet girls in the NICU just a few months after Larra was discharged I decided that I would give her those clothes. I did this twice because she outgrew more clothes while they were still there. Never a thanks, not a card, not a voicemail not a single word I ever heard from this woman. Eventually I confirmed with one of the nurses that she had in fact, received the clothes and she had. I can't say I am proud that I was bummed that I didn't receive any type of acknowledgement but I have to say I was disappointed.
Tuesday when I was sharing my exciting news of the box that arrived with my co-worker, Randi she said, "this box, it is the universe thanking you You didn't get an immediate acknowledgment but someone just paid it forward to you".
So Nicole, a simple kind gesture rocked my world. Thanks---a million times.
One of several restored locks on the historic Hennepin canal that connects the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers across Northern Illinois. Lock 16.
The famous “Binns Clock” on the corner of Princes Street and Hope Street in Edinburgh has been restored. The building used to be occupied by the department store Binns which was taken over by House of Fraser in 1953. The clock was installed in 1960 and was an iconic meeting place. The Frasers store closed in 2018 and the building is currently being converted into the Johnnie Walker Experience. The clock restoration work was carried out by the Cumbria Clock Company who also repaired the musical mechanism which plays traditional Scottish tunes every half an hour as the kilted figures march out of the clock. In keeping with tradition, the Highland figures will emerge to the musical accompaniment every seven and 37 minutes past the hour.
After several years in isolation in Poduene depot in Sofia, ex-BDZ 44 083 now runs a second life. The newest private operator bought several electric locomotives from the State company and completely overhauled them in Czech Republic. On the photo 44 083 is acting as a helper machine of a coal train to Bobov dol power plant. In front of the train is a diesel locomotive type LDE2100 (ex CFR 60-0819).
