Standing among the more modern housing of Mansion Gate to the east of Chapeltown Road, between Gledhow Park Road and Harehills Lane, this elegant mansion was built between 1835-40 for the Leeds industrialist John Hives, partner in the still-surviving flax manufacturer, Banks Mills on the north bank of the river Aire, to the west of the Royal Armouries Museum.
The two-storey mansion is 11 bays wide and eventually became part of the Leeds Chapel Allerton Hospital.
I rarely take photos of people, but this guy was so committed to his role and having such a blast doing it that I couldn't help trying to capture his performance.
When I first saw him he was shouting in Japanese, apparently trying to surrender, since he had a white flag in one hand and a bottle of booze in the other.
He looks miserable here, but he would break character and explain his role, while laughing and smiling.

Cello became jealous upon Dante's arrival, but after a week and lots of playing the police around, I think things are getting back to what they used to be. The little new one isn't as fast a learner as Cello, on all accounts and by far, but he pleased us today by managing to succeed a long walk on St-Denis and Mont-Royal street, which are streets of high traffic in Montreal. As a result, they both suffer from intense sleepiness. :-)

He is a surrendered American Bull Dog that is up for adoption. He is just the most mellow boy I have ever seen. I just love him! His brother was there too, but he found a home already before I even got a photo of him! Poor D... he is all alone!
This is the house across from the stucco and terracotta roofed place.
As I said, architecturally, the two places couldn't be more different. This one is but more than a spacious farm house, the other is much more a villa. Still, both are beautiful, at least to a crazy like me.
This is the Mormon Temple in Bethesda, MD. The bridge that crosses the beltway just in front of us frequently carries the graffito "Surrender Dorothy!", when it's not blacked out by diligent road crews.
