When the windows aren't all boarded up or otherwise obscured, there's a lot of light inside Kirkbride buildings during the day. They were built to take special advantage of daylight so that every ward received the maximum amount of sunshine. The relative thinness of the wing sections combined with the great number and size of windows contributed to this, as well as the orientation of the building in relation to the sun's (apparent) path across the sky.
In this ward, part of this hallway was dark because of closed doors and obscured windows, while other areas were completely open to the light, making for some unusual lighting patterns.

Photo taken October 5, 2012 in Ponder, Texas. The Ponder State Bank was used as a set in the movie "Bonnie and Clyde" which was released in 1967. In the movie, while driving to Ponder to rob the bank, Clyde (Warren Beatty) reassures a nervous Bonnie (Faye Dunaway) that "her momma could take this bank". Bonnie stays in the car while Clyde goes in, only to find out the bank had failed three weeks earlier and there is no money. When Bonnie finds out she starts to laugh. Clyde says "We got a dollar and ninety-eight and you're laughing". No longer a bank, the building is currently being renovated for use as a museum. The teller's cage, vault and even the peeling paint on the walls looks remarkably like it did in the scene from the movie. Shown above, a detail of the Mosler vault inside the Ponder State Bank.

The granite peaks and rolling plains are calling. The clear mountain waters are inviting and the open ranges are waiting to be discovered. Bring your family to Custer State Park and let yourself run wild.

While out looking for sandhill cranes near Kearney, NE, starc283 and I came across this cute little meadowlark sitting on a fence. It's probably going to be the best shot of the trip.
The fires in Washington State continue to grow...the level of containment is pitifully small...
For a graphic 'fly-through' video that gives a grasp of the extent of these fires, see:

The view, looking out into some foggy trees, from the inside of the CCC lodge at Petit Jean State Park, in Arkansas.
1976 during Engineering Day. View looking southwest from the 3-story Engineering 2 Bldg.
Notably, there was a rare Mercedes Benz 300SL 'Gullwing' among the mix, visible here.
Dominating the background, right is one of the Physical Education buildings. What's not obvious from this view is how long that building is in the east-west direction. The hallway in the building, almost 600 feet long, was welcome on rainy days as it sheltered you a long way to the parking lots.
The State Theater in Ithaca, NY. From the outside it looks like a very old and sketchy movie theater. The mixture of styles inside is bizarre enough to be beautiful. Some of the best concerts I ever went to happened here.

A big tow vehicle is not required for a SCAMP.
The Scamp Red Lantern Rally was held at Mystery Bay State Park on Marrowstone Island WA, a half mile from the little waterside town of Nordland. Eleven Scamps participated in this first rally, the largest gathering to date.
As you can see, it only takes a very small vehicle to successfully trailer the 475 pound boat!
SCAMP stands for "Small Craft Advisor Magazine Project". The New Zealand designer John Welsford designed the boat for publisher Josh Colvin. www.jwboatdesigns.co.nz/index.html
SCAMP is an extremely popular small boat!
It is a sailing pram 11 feet 11 inches long, 5 feet 4 inches wide, with a sail of 100 square feet. It is ballasted by 174 pounds of water. The design is owned by the magazine Small Craft Advisor and is available as a plan you can build from scratch, from a kit, or as a finished boat from a builder of your choice. smallcraftadvisor.com/

Spot the scrawling 'WA' on the middle booth.
