Having been freed up from things for a minute, I was able to focus on found photos enough to work on this negative. I don't have the right equipment. My old scanner specifically made for this purpose no longer works. And the replacement I want to buy is spendy enough it has to wait. So here it is. A very first attempt at using a light box, my Samsung, and Snapseed. This negative was at the bottom of my found photo box, which is almost empty.
After some research, I learned Twisp Mercantile is located in Twisp, Washington, in the Methow Valley. The building on the left of the mercantile is an old stable. If you blow up the image, there are big letters at the top that read "WELCOME HOME ALUMNI"
I just got a new lens and had to try it out. The sunset was so colorful that night the pictures don't do it justice.
Well done. Here is the stable built for me by my Uncle Dick in the early 70s. For my whole childhood and most of my adult life it has served as the locus for our tableau of the Nativity of Our Lord. Each year we created a creche in and around this structure. Simple yet durable in construction it lasted us many a year and still worked well enough for me to take these photos. Sadly, she is broken in a few places and has plenty of wear and tear, enough that it is time to retire her after so many years of service. Within she provided a first and temporary home for the Holy Family who could not find shelter even in the local inns. Along with the Holy Family she contained the ox and ass, the representatives of the animal kingdom. In a nearby field an angel appeared to the shepherds and they too came to this stable to behold the Holy Infant Jesus. Along with them they brought sheep and lambs. Eventually some astrologers came and brought the gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Of course in the actual story of Christ, they may have come separate from the shepherds and at a later time, and possibly even to another location. However, traditionally they have been included in the traditional creche and who am I to stop that? Some years this stable was erected under our Christmas tree. Most years however, it was atop our piano. My earliest meditations on the mysteries of Advent, Christmas and Epiphany were in front of this stable. It was she in a great part that allowed me to know more the characters of those stories and to begin to know God and the saints from a young age. It is with great gratitude and care that I lay her to rest. Her time has passed but her memory will live on. Good bye old friend. You are not forgotten.

In the heart of a desolate city, nestled among shadowed streets, lies an obscure diner known as "The Midnight Haven." With its faded facade and an air of mystery, it serves as a refuge for lost souls seeking solace in its dimly lit interior. But behind the worn-out booths and flickering candles, trust is a scarce commodity. The woman in red, Sarah, her gaze is drawn to a man in a weathered mask standing outside the window. His presence is unnerving, his intentions unclear. The diner's patrons exchange nervous glances, sensing an impending storm within the room that mirrors the tempest outside.....
This was today, couple of hours ago.
Hard not to remember my late nephew when I'm visiting his stable.

It was so quiet at the stables, all horses have gone out just before sunrise for the endurance horse race which was led by our State Sultan and the Malaysian King, Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin. All the spectators and jurors are all at the grandstand watching them off.

Stables Farm, so called because it was where the pit ponies for East Mines were once housed.
It may not be Wimbledon but the stripes left by the farmer's work are very redolent of lawns throughout the land in the English summer.
The stables at Stourhead. More of the estate can be seen through the open door.

Housing the Stables Restaurant, Ice Cream Parlour and the old Carolean Stables.
Hope everyone has stayed safe during the storm. A few trees down around here but thankfully no-one hurt. All NT sites in the area closed for the day.

Seen during a British autumn holiday in Devon (with a quick stab into Cornwall): a frontal look at the stables at Antony.
You gotta admire anyone who builds special housing for geniuses like the Tangerine Man. I hope the builder knew that these critters have two ends. He was the genius who invented that "Get Rich Quick" scheme. He was going to scour the west for horses heads then send them to D.C. for final assembly. The orange man went toe to toe with that jung guy. Apparently the "bigger" man won! Sadly, our dear leader fell short of his 2000 major tweeted lies in his first year. I couldn't stand the rampant lies and had to edit an oldie for this.
I drove past this old building for all of my life but when I stopped once to take a look, I ran back to the truck for the camera but even with all of my excitement, I shot way fewer images than what I remembered. The summer had peaked in the high country and grasses and wild flowers were also peaking. This foliage was peeking through the windows and drew my attention to this view. This was the prize of the series taken there at the old stables that are just at the Ferncliff exit on the road toward Allenspark. This was along the original automobile thoroughfare through the area. Most of the old road can be followed yet today if you put in a bit of exploring.
Back in the days of the old winding thoroughfare, the much slower Colorado high country travelers found many more resorts along the routes. The Point o’ Pines was one that lay along the old route. Many families paused at length to revive their spirits at such resorts. This one was at a prized location. Many old resorts like this one were turned into infernos by smokers. One wonders at the few that survived. The immolation of the resort took one life. The old iron beds were salvaged and were stashed inside the old stable if you are looking for authentic bedding. There is a wealth of photographs around this area.
