Sunset over the Santa Ynes River Lompoc, CA. It is one of the longest rivers in central California. Most of the year it has no water.

Mirë se na erdhët Çivit.
Civita, ideale ingresso sud del Parco del Pollino, è uno scenografico borgo al culmine di un altopiano a picco sulle strettissime gole del fiume Raganello: già il primo colpo d’occhio che lo sperone roccioso offre a chi arriva dalla statale è uno dei più begli scenari della Calabria.
Cominciando con qualche cenno storico, uno degli aspetti più peculiari è l’insediamento degli Albanesi intorno al 1468 sul preesistente sito medioevale "Castrum Sancti Salvatoris”, distrutto da un terremoto nel 1456.
Le tradizioni albanesi sono tuttora ben vive a Civita e si manifestano nell’arco dell’anno in ricorrenze a sfondo religioso e storico. Oltre a una serie di rituali della Settimana Santa, la festa più importante è quella del Martedì di Pasqua, denominata “Vallja”, una lunga serie di danze in costume eseguite con canti corali alle quali prende parte l’intera popolazione, con partecipazione di comunità albanesi sparse un po’ in tutta l’Italia Meridionale. È anche l’occasione per celebrare le vittorie dell’eroe nazionale albanese Giorgio Kastriota Skanderbeg contro i Turchi. Un’altra consuetudine è quella dei falò accesi nei vari rioni civitesi nei primi tre giorni di maggio, davanti ai quali vengono intonati i “vjershë”, canti tradizionali spontanei.
Il luogo di culto, anch’esso integrato nella tradizione albanese, è la basilica medioevale, più volte rimaneggiata, di Santa Maria Assunta: in essa si officia la messa secondo il rito greco-bizantino, che può durare tra le due e le quattro ore a seconda della solennità.
La posizione di Civita è teatrale, con le abitazioni che digradano da un pendio boscoso in un agglomerato che va assottigliandosi in un contrafforte roccioso che si protende a picco sulla piana, nella quale scorrono i meandri del Raganello nell’ultima parte del suo percorso dopo essere uscito dalle spettacolari gole. Proprio da una terrazza naturale prospiciente l’edificio nel quale pernottiamo si ha una magnifica veduta dall’alto sul canyon scavato dal fiume in milioni di anni; da qui parte un sentierino a tornanti ben transennato che porta al livello delle acque. Al di sopra della fenditura, incombe la parete verticale della Timpa del Demanio (m.855), quasi 500 metri di dislivello dalla base alla sommità, più della parete della Cima Grande di Lavaredo (timpa è il termine locale che definisce gli impervi massicci del Parco del Pollino).
Piccolo, ma interessante e gestito con amorevole cura, è il Museo Etnico Arbëresh, l’ingresso al quale è gratuito (è comunque gradita un’offerta per il mantenimento). Nelle sue sale spiccano i costumi tradizionali, un’esauriente oggettistica del mondo domestico passato, dell’artigianato e del mondo agro-pastorale, nonché belle collezioni fotografiche su Civita e l’area circostante. È anche sede della biblioteca arbëresh e redazione del periodico bilingue Katundi Ynë.

De inscriptie aan de overkant luidt: 'Ineens is er dit brede contact met dingen waarvan wij niet wisten dat ze zo koninklijk zijn en altijd al in en buiten ons hebben bestaan' (Yvon Né).
The Dutch inscription on the opposite side reads loosely translated: "Suddenly there was this broad contact with things we did not know that they are so regal and always have existed in and outside us" (Yvon Né).

The Vyne is a 16th-century country house outside Sherborne St John, Basingstoke, Hampshire, England. It was built for Lord Sandys, King Henry VIII's Lord Chamberlain. The house retains its Tudor chapel, with stained glass. The classical portico on the north front was added in 1654 by Inigo Jones's pupil John Webb. In the mid-eighteenth century The Vyne belonged to Horace Walpole's close friend John Chaloner Chute, who designed the Palladian staircase, whose magnificent apparent scale belies its actual small size. The Vyne was bequeathed by its final Chute owner, Sir Charles Chute, to the National Trust in 1958. Each year a number of concerts, plays and family events are run. The grounds contain large woodland and a wetlands nesting site which is populated by swans and Common Redshanks. There are a number of woodland, wetland and parkland walking trails. Dogs are welcome into the grounds (on leads), in Morgaston Woods and the Organic Parklands (under direct control). The Vyne holds an inscribed Roman ring as well as a lead tablet that speaks of a curse on the one who stole it. J.R.R. Tolkien was asked to comment on it as an expert on Anglo-Saxon history, including its connection to a mine fabled to have been dug by dwarves, and a few days after began writing Lord of the Rings.

Pictured in Bourton-on-the-Water is R2 NNC, a Volvo B8R/Plaxton Leopard C59F coach in the fleet of Cresswell, Evesham, Worcestershire. It was new to Mayne, Warrington, Cheshire as YX15 ZSN in April 2015 and was reregistered MA08 YNE in September 2018. It passed to Procter, Leeming Bar in a dealer capacity in February 2022 and had reverted to its original mark by the time it joined Cresswell in April 2022, when it was promptly given its current registration.
