Emptiness goes round,
Row after row.
An ear-splitting silence,
Travels in tow.
Poem: Jan Elemans

Beggars Row, a row of long abandoned cottages on the old Glasserton Estate, near Whithorn in Galloway. It is possible to find the names of residents on this site in the mid-1600's.
It was a cloudy miserable day and there was no activity on the river apart from this row of rowing boats bobbing in the water. Photographed from Richmond Bridge.
With very few exceptions, new housing in Los Alamos was built with showers but no bathtub. Because of the scarcity of iron during the early phases of the war, Congress had limited the types of bathroom fixtures that could be included in new construction, thus tubs were not permitted. It soon became obvious to all residents that the only persons who could enjoy the luxury of a bath were the families living in the former masters’ cottages. The homes soon became known as "Bathtub Row," an affectionate term still used today. —http://www.losalamoshistory.org/property.htm
Or is it the back row set? Either way, the back door of the end Superliner sleeper on the Cal Zephyr is one of the best places to see the country zoom past you in reverse. Our westward caravan passes this BNSF oil train hanging out on the center track between the Naperville and Route 59 stations on a memorable late September day in 2014. One block down on our track, a Metra commuter train bound for Aurora tags along behind.
Mushroom family found in the forest :)
Honey fungus (Armillaria mellea), is a basidiomycete fungus in the genus Armillaria. It is a plant pathogen and part of a cryptic species complex of closely related and morphologically similar species. It causes Armillaria root rot in many plant species and produces mushrooms around the base of trees it has infected. Armillaria mellea is widely distributed in temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. The fruit body or mushroom grows typically on hardwoods but may be found around and on other living and dead wood or in open areas. Armillaria mellea mushroom are considered good edibles, although some individuals have reported "allergic" reactions that result in stomach upsets. The mushrooms have a taste that has been described as slightly sweet and nutty, with a texture ranging from chewy to crunchy, depending on the method of preparation. Can also be pickled and roasted.

Opieńkowa rodzinka znaleziona w lesie :)
Opieńka miodowa (Armillaria mellea) – gatunek grzybów z rodziny obrzękowcowatych. Występuje na wszystkich kontynentach z wyjątkiem Antarktydy i Ameryki Południowej. W Europie Środkowej jest pospolita, w Polsce również. Pojawia się najczęściej jesienią od września do listopada, ale czasami może pojawić się nawet na początku sierpnia. Zwykle występuje gromadnie, czasami bardzo licznie. Rośnie na drewnie (pnie, pniaki, gałęzie, korzenie) różnych gatunków drzew liściastych w lasach, ogrodach, parkach i sadach. Opieńka jest pasożytem atakującym zarówno martwe, jak i żywe drzewa. Wywołuje u zaatakowanych drzew chorobę o nazwie opieńkowa zgnilizna korzeni prowadzącą do obumarcia drzewa i powodującą białą zgniliznę drewna. Opieńki są grzybami jadalnymi. Są smaczne, twarde, o łykowatym, mniej wykorzystywanym do konsumpcji trzonie. Do spożycia używa się najczęściej młodych kapeluszy. W stanie surowym lub niedogotowanym opieńka miodowa może być trująca. Dlatego też należy ją najpierw obgotować przez około 5 minut i odlać wywar, po czym dopiero poddaje się ją dalszej obróbce.

I have found lots of rows in this picture, although I was not aware of them while I was shooting.
This is one of the photos I took on my day out to the Cotswolds
for my birthday last November. I love the beautifully shaped old fashioned road names, the shapes in this building and the dappled shadows from a nearby tree. Isn't the boat in the window wonderful! The building needs a bit of TLC which I'm sure it will get when the new buyer moves in.
The housing crisis and rebuilding after the Christchurch earthquakes has led to some interesting town house complexes. These are a row of pastel town houses newly built near the New Brighton Pier in Christchurch. The area has been neglected and shops are struggling but attempts at renewal are ongoing. The building of a market & Village Green is underway and the newly built groups of town houses near the transport routes should be bringing more people into the shops, pier and services nearby. However, I do question whether not providing parking areas for these developments is a good thing. Christchurch has now experienced population growth after a dip following the earthquakes when people fled to other areas. Happy window Wednesday.
The wonderful sight of Arlington Row, Bibury.
Most famous houses in the Cotswolds, and known throughout the country...
Who knew that my tiny glass head appliqué pins had bubbles inside? For Macro Mondays .... All in a Row HMM

Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
- Life is but a dream.
