The song, The House That Built Me, sung by Miranda Lambert, could have been written for me, this is the house where I grew up in Kentucky, we lived on a 100 acre farm, with a swinging bridge that crosses the creek, you can only drive to the house when the creek is low.
When I took this picture, I had to take my shoes off and walk across the creek, it was in early May and the water was so cold, but it was so worth going back.
There is a cemetery from the 1800's on the property that I always found interesting. No one has lived in the house in over 20 years
I know they say you cant go home again.
I just had to come back one last time.
Ma’am I know you don’t know me from Adam.
But these handprints on the front steps are mine.
And up those stairs, in that little back bedroom
is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar.
And I bet you didn’t know under that live oak
my favorite dog is buried in the yard.
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
this brokenness inside me might start healing.
Out here its like i’m someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself
if I could just come in I swear i’ll leave.
Won’t take nothing but a memory
from the house that built me.
Mama cut out pictures of houses for years.
From ‘Better Homes and Garden’ magazines.
Plans were drawn, concrete poured,
and nail by nail and board by board
Daddy gave life to mama’s dream.
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
this brokenness inside me might start healing.
Out here its like i’m someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself.
If I could just come in I swear i’ll leave.
Won’t take nothing but a memory
from the house that built me.

After a day working Tanfield Railway "Mince Pie Specials", Stanley has its fire thrown out at Marley Hill shed. Stanley is Andrew Barclay, Sons & Co. works no. 1659, built in 1920 for the East Tanfield Colliery Company, but for many years was NCB North Durham Area no. 32 and a Bowes Railway engine based at Marley Hill.
Sir Cecil A. Cochrane (Robert Stephenson & Hawthorns Ltd. 7409, built in 1948 for the Redheugh Gas Works), which had been working the other diagram, has already had its fire thrown out and is now in the shed, while no. 49 (RSH 7098, built in 1943 for the War Department but later an NCB engine) is stabled on the other track, having not been in use today.
I'd spent the day photographing the line, mostly in lovely light, but had a ride behind Stanley on the last round trip. I then returned to the car to collect my tripod and came straight down here to see what pictures I could get as the locos were being put away. I took some shots of Cochrane in the shed before Stanley arrived, and then I managed to set up in the hope of being able to capture the hot coals being thrown out - something I'd missed photographing a year previously. Unfortunately, with no clouds around the sky was still very light when I took a long exposure, while the orange glow of the sunset was almost non-existent, and in the wrong place anyway at this time of year. As can be seen from the exposure settings, the scene was quite dark, and I've also underexposed by 1.3 stops (according to the meter reading) in order not to burn out the interior of the shed (although it still required darkening slightly)
Manipulation notes: In the hope I'd time a shot correctly to capture the red-hot coals in full flight, I kept taking exposures without moving the camera. In the one successful frame (frame 426), there are faint outlines of three people in the doorway, in front of no. 49, and one of them was wearing a modern hi-vis orange jacket. However, by the time I took the next frame (frame 427) they had all moved, so I combined the two frames to make one that was free of people but still had the trail from the red-hot coals. I've also cloned out a wooden telegraph pole (with an unlit security light attached) which was sticking out of the top of Stanley.
A big thank you to the volunteer staff here for being welcoming and not chasing me away when I set up my tripod.

Built in 1897-1901, this Gothic Revival-style six-story building was designed by James Knox Taylor, William Akin, and Jeremiah O'Rourke to house the main Post Office for the city of Buffalo. The building served as the city’s central post office facility until 1963, when it was replaced by a larger and more modern warehouse-like facility in the Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood on the opposite side of the railroad tracks from Buffalo Central Terminal. The building housed various federal offices during the 1960s and 1970s before it became home to the City Campus of SUNY Erie, the local community college, in 1981, after adaptive reuse under the direction of Cannon Design. The building is clad in gray Maine Granite with a 244-foot Flemish Gothic tower above the entrance, a hipped roof covered in green terra cotta tile, wall formers, decorative stone and metal finials, decorative gargoyles at the corners of the building and the tower, gothic arched window bays, including one on each face of the upper section of the tower, a decorative cornice at the base of the fifth floor, a large central atrium covered in a translucent roof, window bays with doric pilasters between them on the centers and ends of the building, porches at the entrances with decorative piers topped with pinnacles, with arches between them and gabled parapets with tracery above, first floor paired windows with engaged columns and tracery, and a large cast iron rear canopy at the service dock. The interior lobby features stone-clad walls, corinthian pilasters, vaulted ceilings, a large covered six-story atrium wrapped by arcades, staircases with decorative railings, a mosaic tile and terrazzo floor, and decorative wooden paneling. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972, and presently houses classrooms, lecture halls, and offices for SUNY Erie.
British Army barracks, built in the 1960s, replacing some 1940s structures [ whole area was a maze of British army barracks, forts, batteries & PoW camps built between 1875 – 1899 ]. Dedicated to officers with families. British Army left in 1979 and site was handed over to the Maltese government.
The place is now falling apart, and used for motorcross, paintballing, laser tag, picnicking, graffiti and possibly home to some homeless people. Some quotes I've found online . . . .
“The accommodation was of high quality in a mix of 4 bedroom houses and 3 bedroom flats. All of them were provided with central heating, telephone and garage.“
“From 1973 to 1975 I lived in one of the 4 bedroom bungalows. They were very spacious and comfortable with fantastic views. Not a bad place to spend a couple of years, school in the mornings and then swimming in the afternoons. It’s a shame to see the state they’re in now.”
“In October/November 1978 I was one of the last UK MoD residents at St Patrick’s. The whole married quarter’s complex was handed over to the Malta Government, complete and in excellent working order. The houses and flats still had their furniture and fittings and could have been occupied immediately by Maltese families as either social (Government) housing or sold to private and individual owners.
In 1984 the whole complex was being marketed as a holiday resort – “The White Rocks Resort”. . . . . . . . By 1992 the resort was no more and the former housing was turning into an unauthorised tip, the houses stripped of fixtures and fittings.”
“I spent several excellent holidays at White Rocks and I am very sorry to see the state it is in. We stayed in a spacious two bedroom ”bungalow” with sitting room and kitchen plus a shared patio area and we just loved the place. The bulk of guests at the times we stayed there were kids from Europe sent to improve their English. They were off the premesis in class by 9 o’clock and we had the pool to ourselves until they returned at 1 o’clock; by which time we were nicely toasted and ready to go out exploring . . . . “
“I spent two summers at the White Rocks with friends from Rome and Sicily in -best guess- 1985 and 1987 or 1988. It was cheap enough for us college students back then. So many memories. . . . “

Built in 1932 in the art deco style of the time as an electricity showroom for the Tamworth District Electricity Supply Company (TDESCO).
The height of the central column has at some point been reduced by two thirds greatly reducing the visual impact of the building.
Heygate Estate was built 1974 and was initially very popular among its council tenants but slowly got a reputation for violence and social problems and is now in the process of being demolished. Since 2007 many movies and TV productions have been filmed here. One reason is that most residents have moved out due to increasingly bad
reputation of the area which means it has been easy to create sets for filming. The other reason is the very time typical 60-70s architecture (that I tend to like without being some urban hipster) that have been left very much in its original state which showed to be popular among directors doing stories of urban decay…
The area will now be redeveloped and a new type of resident will move in that probably not will be council tenants.

Many of the towns and villages in rural Germany feature pretty, half-timbered houses, but the small cities of Paderborn and Hameln have some of the best preserved. This is the Adam & Eva Haus, believed to have been built in 1560, situated in central Paderborn. It is now a Museum, hence being in such good condition, but there are many more like this in the general area - some in a very sad state of disrepair, but many are still used as homes and/or businesses to this day.
The end of July into the start of August is the time of the annual Libori festival in the city of Paderborn. To learn more about it go to Wikipedia, but essentially Liborius is the patron saint of this very Catholic city and the festival is religious in origin, but has also become an excuse for a big, non-religious festival and is one of the most popular in Germany.
1884 photograph under glass of a 3-masted schooner built in Madison CT by C.M.Miner & Son. It came ashore at Atlantic City on Jan. 9, 1884 during her second voyage.
During a violent nor’easter, the schooner Robert Morgan en route from New haven to Richmond rammed through the ballroom of Howard’s Pier in Atlantic City then came ashore on the beach at Kentucky Avenue. The three-masted schooner became a tourist attraction and people paid admission to board and tour her. Five months later, she returned to sea and was taken to Philadelphia for repairs.

Bannack was founded as a mining community in 1862 and named for the local Bannock Indian tribe. It briefly served as the capital city of the newly created Montana Territory in 1864, until the capital was moved to Virginia City. It was the Beaverhead County seat until the seat was moved to Dillon in 1881. The last residents of the community moved out in the 1970s. The site of the town is today Bannack State Park and National Historic Landmark.
LOVE LOVE LOVE these chairs!! We built these on the smaller side for a small bedroom. I love the texture of this fabric and the way it flows so beautifully with the dressmaker skirt. The cushion insert is spring down, thus the beautiful loft/crown! The chairs are identical - perfectly matching fabric pattern on each chair.

The 2,000- room Commodore Hotel was built in the early 1920s as one of the railroad mega hotels centered around Grand Central Terminal. It was named after "Commodore" Cornelius Vanderbilt, the founder of The New York Central Railroad System,
In 1975, Donald Trump bought the Commodore Hotel from Penn Central for $10 million and struck a deal with Jay Pritzker to transform it into a Grand Hyatt hotel. The Grand Hyatt opened in 1980.
The Commodore's brick masonry was covered with a mirror-glass "slipcover" facade - the masonry still exists underneath.
The 1,311-room Grand Hyatt New York expects to complete a $130 renovation in 2011.

Built between the 11th and 18th centuries, the Old Town, the Lesser Town and the New Town speak of the great architectural and cultural influence enjoyed by this city since the Middle Ages. The many magnificent monuments, such as Hradcani Castle, St Vitus Cathedral, Charles Bridge and numerous churches and palaces, built mostly in the 14th century under the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles IV.
Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe in terms of its setting on both banks of the Vltava River, its townscape of burger houses and palaces punctuated by towers, and its individual buildings.
The Historic Centre represents a supreme manifestation of Medieval urbanism (the New Town of Emperor Charles IV built as the New Jerusalem). The Prague architectural works of the Gothic Period (14th and 15th centuries), of the High Baroque of the 1st half of the 18th century and of the rising modernism after the year 1900, influenced the development of Central Europe, perhaps even all European architecture. Prague represents one of the most prominent world centres of creative life in the field of urbanism and architecture across generations, human mentality and beliefs.
Prague belongs to the group of historic cities which have preserved the structure of their development until the present times. Within the core of Prague, successive stages of growth and changes have respected the original grand-scale urban structure of the Early Middle Ages. This structure was essentially and greatly enlarged with urban activities in the High Gothic period with more additions during the High Baroque period and in the 19th century. It has been saved from any large-scale urban renewal or massive demolitions and thus preserves its overall configuration, pattern and spatial composition.
In the course of the 1100 years of its existence, Prague’s development can be documented in the architectural expression of many historical periods and their styles. The city is rich in outstanding monuments from all periods of its history. Of particular importance are Prague Castle, the Cathedral of St Vitus, Hradćany Square in front of the Castle, the Valdgtejn Palace on the left bank of the river, the Gothic Charles Bridge, the Romanesque Rotunda of the Holy Rood, the Gothic arcaded houses round the Old Town Square, the High Gothic Minorite Church of St James in the Stark Mĕsto, the late 19th century buildings and town plan of the Nave Mĕsto.
As early as the Middle Ages, Prague became one of the leading cultural centres of Christian Europe. The Prague University, founded in 1348, is one of the earliest in Europe. The milieu of the University in the last quarter of the 14th century and the first years of the 15th century contributed among other things to the formation of ideas of the Hussite Movement which represented in fact the first steps of the European Reformation. As a metropolis of culture, Prague is connected with prominent names in art, science and politics, such as Charles IV, Petr Parléř, Jan Hus, Johannes Kepler, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Franz Kafka, Antonín Dvořák, Albert Einstein, Edvard Beneš (co-founder of the League of Nations) and Václav Havel.

CORNUCOPIA HOTEL
This hotel was built in 1862 and Mr Richard Hazelgrove was the first licensee. It was used for many public meetings until the Institute was erected in 1873. It has 52 rooms and is the only hotel in Wallaroo which has retained its exterior facade.
*On the 26th instant (Boxing Day), at Hazelgrove’s Cornucopia Hotel, there was the largest gathering of the brethren of the IOOF. MU, that ever there has been, either at Wallaroo Bay or Kadina.
The members of the Loyal Wallaroo Lodge, together with a number of visiting brothers, having formed and marched in procession in the afternoon, they then sat down in the Lodge-room at the Host's to dinner. There were about 100 present, including the visitors, all under the presidency of Mr Gavan Young, assisted on the right by Captain Malcolm, and on the left by the NG, Hearne. Mr Lawn filled the vice-chair, supported by Dr Shod and P G Ward.
The dinner, which was in reality the best that could possibly have been obtained, being over and the cloth removed, the Chairman proposed in a eulogistic speech the usual patriotic toasts. Ref: Adelaide Observer (SA) Saturday 3 January 1863.
*At a meeting of the Grand Annual Committee of the South Australian Independent Order of Oddfellows in 20th January, at the Adelaide Lodge-room, Freemasons’ Hotel, Pirie Street –
A letter from the Wallaroo Lodge applied for permission to remove to the Cornucopia Hotel in consequence of the proprietor of the Wallaroo Inn having let their Lodge-room as a drapery store.
Leave Granted. South Australian Register (SA) Wednesday 21 January 1863.
*Burton’s troupe performed here on the nights of the 11th and 12 inst. The pavilion was erected on a convenient site near the Cornucopia Hotel, and was crowed on both evenings with spectators.
Some 30 or 40 natives were present…evinced the intense delight they experienced in witnessing what they termed the “white fellows corroboree.” Ref: South Australian Advertiser (SA) Friday 20 February 1863.
*March 25
The Telegraph Station was opened on Monday, the 23rd inst, by Mr Todd, Superintendent of Telegraphs.
Mr Benton, formerly of Port Adelaide is appointed clerk of the station.
The old office of the Smelting Works is temporarily used as the Telegraph Office.
Mr Todd, however, is dissatisfied with its position in respect of locality.
In the course of a few days the station is to be removed to some position in the township more conveniently situated for the general public.
A signed memorial to Mr Todd [about a new location] was presented to that gentleman on Tuesday at the Cornucopia Hotel, by Messrs Law and Jamieson, the respective managers of the two banks here. Mr Todd expressed himself in favourable terms toward the desire of the memorialists. Ref: South Australian Advertiser (SA) Friday 27 March 1863.

*A lecture in aid of the funds for repairing the Congregational Chapel was delivered on last Thursday evening, in the Assembly Room of the Cornucopia Hotel, by Mr J B Austin. Ref: South Australian Advertiser (SA) Friday 15 July 1864.
*On Friday evening last, at the Cornucopia Hotel, a party of gentleman, numbering about 20, gave a farewell dinner to Mr Boor, the discoverer of the Wallaroo Mines, who is about to proceed to England. Captain A France presided, and the proceedings passed off pleasantly. Ref: South Australian Weekly Chronicle (SA) Saturday 22 October 1864.
*Wallaroo Bay. August 15
On Thursday evening last several gentlemen met at the Cornucopia Hotel for the purpose of making the necessary arrangements to entertain Mr D Bower MP, the representative of the district at a public dinner, as a mark of esteem on the part of the electors for the services he has rendered in Parliament. It was arranged that the dinner should be held on that day fortnight, 4th inst, and from the very honourable position which that gentleman attained at the recent election it is anticipated the attendance will be large. Ref: South Australian Register (SA) Saturday 19 August 1865.
*Banquet to Mr Richard Haselgrove
When it became generally known that Mr Haselgrove had decided to remove from here to Adelaide to form a home centre for his family, it was thought by all that something should be done to show the residents’ appreciation of that gentleman's services to the town and district during the past 35 years, the period of his residence here.
A meeting was held, at which it was resolved that a banquet be given in honour of Mr Haselgrove, in the Kadina Town Hall, and a Committee was appointed to carry this into effect. The Committee had a difficulty at the very outset in the arrangement, as no one would cater for the Town Hall. Mr D Dunn came to the rescue and offered to provide the spread in the Oddfellow's Hall, which was at once accepted to avoid farther delays. Mr Dunn more than kept his promise to provide an excellent spread worthy of the occasion. The hall was tastefully draped with muslin in every colour and shade with good effect, the tables being formed like an elongated H in the centre of the hall. These were laid with great judgment and effect in the glassware with flowers and fruits, adding with the display on the walls to the general appearance of the banquetting hall.
The catering in connection with the more substantial things of life, to which 75 took their seats, was all that could be desired. Ample justice having been done to the good things provided.
The Mayor, who presided, called on the members of the String Band to entertain the Company.
The Chairman then proposed "The Guest.” From the long time Mr Haselgrove had resided in their midst-a period extending over 35 years-it had given them ample time and opportunity of judging his sterling character and great worth, not only to Kadina, but to the district generally. Their guest was considered by many people as a fortunate man from the fact that he was one of the few Peninsula men who had by industry and business ability acquired a competence for himself and family. Now, a man in those days who was able to accomplish that was looked upon and regarded as one of the lucky ones. The late Rev C H Spurgeon once said, "I have never had any faith in luck, except that 1 believe that good luck will carry a man over a ditch if he jumps well." That was the sort of luck which had attended Mr Haselgrove.
Although their guest had prospered in his private concerns, he did not think he could be charged with being narrow, grasping, or selfish. While he had been diligent in attending to his own affairs he had recognised other claims in connection with public matters, to which he had given much of his time and attention.
He had ever taken an intelligent interest in any affair which had been set on foot for the benefit of the district, and had been looked to as one of those who took a foremost part. As Mayor of Kadina for several years he had done excellent service. During his term of office he and the Council under him had been greatly handicapped owing to a heavy debt contracted years before, and which had to be paid off in yearly instalments. That had hindered Mr Haselgrove very much in carrying out the necessary work and improvements which he would otherwise have done. Yet so well did he fill the position for such a long time that most of the ratepayers had regarded him as a model Mayor, and those who followed him would do well to imitate his example.
In conclusion, the Chairman wished Mr Haselgrove, with his wife and family, health, long life, and happiness in their new abode.
Mr Haselgrove, on rising, was most enthusiastically received. He thanked those who had spoken so highly of him and his determination. He had been alluded to as a model Mayor, but he could tell them that the Licensing Bench also referred to him as a model publican. That was in the month of March, which had been to him a most eventful month. He hoped his successor to the Mayoral Chair would be as successful a Mayor.
He well remembered, while building the Cornucopia Hotel, four gentlemen coming to him for a £1 subscription to clear the track from Clare to Wallaroo, and after its completion the gentlemen met in the parlour and one suggested the construction of a light line of railway to Clare. That was the first of the Clare and Wallaroo tramway. The Vice-Chairman's father was one of the four, and action was at once taken in the matter. But after a survey was made the Surveyor-General notified that it would be impossible to get a line over the Hummocks. It was subsequently decided it should be taken over the Never-Never Ranges to Snowtown. After Mr Michael came to reside at Barunga Gap the interest he took in the affair soon made the Snowtown line an accomplished fact. It was after the line was taken to Snowtown that he gave offence to the Wallaroo people, because he opposed the extension from Snowtown to Koolunga and advocated the extension to Angle Grove or Magpie Creek, where it had ultimately been taken. The contention was at the time between Blyth to Crystal Brook or Blyth to Gladstone. It was the resolution that was passed at Kadina that was ultimately carried respecting that line and its extension.
He then narrated how eventful the month of March had been to him. He arrived in the colony on the 17th March, and came to the Peninsula in March. In fact, all the special events of his life had taken place in March, and now he had been banquetted in March on his departure from Kadina.

On Sunday, January 9, 2011, I went on a photo walk in the historic downtown area of Sanford, FL with KikiFL, DigitalSLG and Don Sullivan.
Sanford is historic and preservation efforts are underway to restore the old buildings. Among the restored are the not so restored. This is one of the beautifully restored buildings.
Thanks for looking. I appreciate feedback!
Built between 1919 and 1921 for oil heiress Aline Barnsdall, Hollyhock House is Frank Lloyd Wright’s first project in Los Angeles. Its namesake is abstracted and geometricized in much of the house’s design, including exterior walls and interior furniture.
Hollyhock House was the centerpiece of a mostly unrealized Wright master plan for a theater community set on a thirty-six acre site, "Olive Hill." Wright left much of the supervision of construction of Hollyhock House to his son, landscape architect Lloyd Wright, and to architect Rudolf Schindler, as Wright himself was working on the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo
