The History of the Ohio State Reformatory:
"The cornerstone laid on November 4, 1886 evolved into this magnificent Chateauesque structure. Cleveland architect Levi T. Scofield designed the Ohio State Reformatory using a combination of three architectural styles; Victorian Gothic, Richardsonian Romanesque and Queen Anne. This was done to encourage inmates back to a "rebirth" of their spiritual lives. The architecture itself inspired them to turn away from their sinful lifestyle, and toward repentance
The Reformatory doors were opened to its first 150 young offenders in September 1896. After housing over 155,000 men in its lifetime, the doors to the prison closed December 31, 1990.
Today the Ohio State Reformatory Historic Site receives visitors from all over the world. Every year tourists, movie buffs, thrill seekers and paranormal investigators walk through the halls of this majestic structure.

Ghostly History of OSR
As reported by News Channel 4, Columbus, Ohio 1997
Stone walls and iron bars they're still here, but what of the humanity, if you can call it that, of the old Ohio State Reformatory at Mansfield. What of the 154,000 inmates who passed through it's gates in it's 94 years as a working prison. Not to mention their keepers, the Wardens, and the Guards, the gravediggers, and the rest, what of them remains? As it turns out, more than you might think. No matter what their crime, some sent to Mansfield have never left. They rest unclaimed in a cheerless graveyard just outside the fence. 215 numbered markers laid out row on row. Most were victims of disease, influenza, tuberculosis, but some died of less natural causes; From the violence, that is all to common inside any prison and was far from unknown in this one. And the worst of it occurred well away from the main cell block with their rows of cages stacked tier on tier, and inmates, one or two to a cell. There were too many eyes, too many witnesses here, no the worst of it was reserved for a far lonelier place, deep beneath the prison ground. A place called local control, or solitary, by some, known by everyone else as the hole. Near total isolation can crack all but the toughest of cons, but none was so alone that there wasn't room for death. At least one inmate managed to hang himself, another set himself on fire, once two men left too long in a single tomb like cell, only one walked out, leaving his cellmate's body behind, stuffed beneath a bunk. Could there be other similar surprises? Or words left over from the days before the prison closed? Even when they're empty, some swear something walks these halls. It isn't enough for contemporary visitors not to wonder off alone while sight seeing, what‘s become one of Mansfield's more popular tourist attractions. But the bloodiest single incident in the old prison's history occurred outside it's walls. In July 1948, when the Reformatory's farm boss, his wife and daughter were kidnapped and shot to death by two parolees bent on revenge. A six state manhunt for the so called mad-dog killers ended in a shootout that left Robert Daniels of Columbus in custody and his partner, James West dead. "I'll get the Chair" Daniels told police as he signed the confession. And on January 3rd, 1949, he did. A year later in 1950 disaster struck again. This time, here in the living quarters of the Warden himself. The Warden's wife, removing a jewelry box from a closet shelf dislodged a pistol from it's hiding place. When it hit the floor, the gun went off inflicting a fatal wound. And within the decade, even more bad luck. The Warden, hard at work in his office, suffered a heart attack and died. All this was nearly 40 years ago and more, how then to explain the voices shaken tour guides swear they hear today? Man and woman talking, to faint to understand, to persistent to ignore and chilling to listeners who think they're alone, only to find themselves apparently eavesdropping on the warden and his wife locked forever in an endless conversation from beyond the grave.

Three little maids from school are we
Pert as a school-girl well can be
Filled to the brim with girlish glee
Three little maids from school
Everything is a source of fun
Nobody's safe, for we care for none
Life is a joke that's just begun
Three little maids from school
Three little maids who, all unwary
Come from a ladies' seminary
Freed from its genius tutelary
Three little maids from school

July 27, 2021: Bronze sculpture "Three Generations" in front of the Goebel Adult Community Center in Thousand Oaks. The 1992 Norman Rockwell-style sculpture by Ann LaRose sits in deep shade underneath a couple of trees. The heavily backlit location makes photographing the sculpture a challenge. To get this image, I took advantage of this morning's heavy cloud clover and the Pro Camera app's HDR function to get this iPhone capture. I like this sculpture, but not the green bird waste. Time for cleaning!
Where: Inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Manhattan, New York, USA.
When: End of July 2011.

Dogsitting in Coconut Grove, FL
Yes, I am dogsitting again. This time not just for the weekend, but for 10 days.
Actually I am here in the Grove since last Saturday and since then I've been trying to get them to pose for me, but without any luck whatsoever. I might have had one sitting still just for the other to run into the frame, usually right when I pressed the shutter. And, all I got was a furry blur.
So today I took my wide-angle lens and thought I try some artsy shots. That didn't work too well either until I grabbed some treats, held them in my left hand over my head, had the camera in my right hand and just fired away.
So here they are, from left to right: Virgil, whom you already have met, Benny, his son, and Idgy. Virgil and Benny are Cairn Terriers, 2 years and 8 months old, and Idgy is a Keeshond and with 15 years the senior of the household.
Please view the three amigos large on black.
Now a total of three pieces. From top to bottom: Sunday Morning, The Faithful Dog, The Volunteer. Need to work out how to display them.
After an absence of around a week our friendly and playful Bottlenos Dolphins returned to Fishguard Bay. Around twenty or so animals all together with a few previously unseen mother and calf pairs. Like three excited teenagers this little group spent an hour or more playing, leaping and just having a thrashing good time. Today's post is four images I captured yesterday.
At least this time can count the posts! This was shot at Fernilee reservoir, Goyt Valley Derbyshire and what a veautiful view it was!

These three fine gentlemen were photographed in the village of Okankolo in 2000, attending the wedding of two friends of mine. I do not remember their names, unfortunately, but they were proud to be in their Sunday Best, and had an altogether very dignified air about them.
This is a scan of a print. It turns out that this film isn't that easy to print in a wet darkroom.
Out to run errands today and caught these three sketches. Made with a Sharpie and color pencils in my 3 x 5 Canson journal.

Three Sisters - North Sister (10,363 feet / 3,159 m), Middle Sister (10,047 feet / 3,062 m), South Sister (10,363 feet / 3,159 m); and Broken Top & Mount Bachelor. Oregon
From: Scott and Gardner, 1990, Field trip guide to the central Oregon High Cascades, Part 1: Mount Bachelor-South Sister area: Oregon Geology, September 1990, v.42, n.5.
The Three Sisters-Broken Top area is a long-lived center of basaltic to rhyolitic volcanism. The clustering of large composite cones sets the area apart from others in the High Cascades, although the Mount Mazama area prior to the formation of Crater Lake caldera was also a cluster of composite cones.
The ages of most volcanoes in the Three Sisters area are not precisely known. North Sister, a basaltic andesite pyroclastic and lava cone that rests on a shield volcano, is the oldest of the Three Sisters and postdates the approximately 0.3-million-year-old Shevlin Park Tuff. Middle Sister is intermediate in age between North and South Sister and, like South Sister, is compositionally diverse. Broken Top volcano is also younger than Shevlin Park Tuff and is older than South Sister, but its age relation to Middle and North Sister is not known. The relative degree of erosion of Broken Top is a complex complex composite cone of dominantly basaltic andesite that intermittently erupted andesite, dacite, and rhyolite as lava flows, pyroclastic flows, and pyroclastic falls. Cayuse Crater, which is located between Broken Top and the Cascades Lakes Highway, and two nearby vents on the southwest flank of Broken Top erupted during the earliest Holocene or lates Pleistocene time, but these events were probably unrelated to the long-inactive Broken Top system.
South Sister is the youngest composite volcano of the Three Sisters-Broken Top center and has erupted lavas ranging from basaltic andesite through rhyolite. Although not dated directly, most, if not all, of South Sister is probably of late Pleistocene age. ... The cone of basaltic andesite that forms the summit of South Sister is probably of latest Pleistocene age; its crater is still closed and is filled with 60 meters of ice and snow. Le Conte Crater a basaltic andesite scoria cone on the south flank, is between about 15,000 and 6,850 years old. The youngest eruptions recognized on the volcano occurred at a series of vents on the south and northeast flanks that erupted rhyolite tephra and lava flows and domes between about 2,200 and 2,000 years before the present.
