Small Storm Cell passing over Sydney, captured from Collins Beach. A beautiful location, with great conditions!
This is a view from one of the 'luxury' or comfortable prison cells within the walls of the infamous Kilmainham Gaol in Dublin. Built in 1796 when Ireland was under British rule Kilmainham Gaol replaced an old dungeon style internment institution. Conditions were extremely bad and amongst the many murderers and conmen there were prisoners as young as 8 years old, interred hard labour for stealing food. Following the Easter rebellion against British rule in 1916 a number of Irish rebels were interred in Kilmainham before being executed in the stone breakers yard of the prison. The prison closed some years later then fell into decay and disrepair before being rescued and refurbished by volunteers in the 1960's. Kilmaniham Gaol is now in the care of the State and is a tourist attraction. A number of movies were made there including Michael Collins, In The Name of The father and The Italian Job, amongst others.
"13 septembre 1969, les habitants de Celles, petit village de la vallée Rouge du Salagou, sont évacués par la montée des eaux du lac artificiel, destinées à répondre aux besoins de l'agriculture. Cinquante ans plus tard, il ne compte qu'une seule famille, installée au-dessus de l'hôtel de ville... Ce bâtiment administratif reste aujourd'hui le seul à avoir été réhabilité avec... l'église. Cette situation ne devrait plus durer longtemps !"

The entrance to a row of cells in the Ohio State Reformatory, in Mansfield.
These steel cell blocks, stacked 6 levels high, have been 'home' to more than 150,000 inmates. From the prison's opening in 1886 to it's closure in 1990, over 200 of those inmates never made it out.
The massive building is now open to the public, but you can easily find yourself alone in one of the many dark and decaying cells.
Outside wall of a police station, the exterior structures possibly marking the position of the cells, though this is not something of which I have any personal knowledge :-)

Every morning me and my three kiddos head to the bus stop.
Lots and lots and lots of kids are there.
It's a lot of fun, crazy but fun.
Haley gets a lot of attention from her brothers and the other kids at the stop.
I am getting ready to head out for the day with Haley and Austin.
Poor little Austin doesn't have preschool on Fridays.
We are going to have fun anyway though.
Well..... fun mixed in with Austin temper tantrums that is. Ha.
Happy Friday!
Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Originally, there was little access from the cell block hall to each cell. Meals were offered through a small hole. During those early years it was intended that all inmates would be maintained in isolation. The only access was via the small individual exercise yard outside. Later, these sliding doors were added as prison standards and operations were added. The prison opened in 1829 and operated until 1972. It was remodeled and adapted many times in that lifespan. I found the vintage hardware compelling.

My grandfather Reuben S. Horst took this photo in Celles, Belgium in 1948.
Celles is a village in the municipality of Houyet in the province of Namur, Belgium. It is also the farthest point that the German Army advanced during the Battle of the Bulge in World War II.
I believe the sign reads, translated from French, Here is where the Rundstedt-Offensive, was halted on December 24, 1944
Today this Panther G tank still sits in this same spot. Here is some information I discovered about the tank from doing a little searching on line.
The Celles Panther was part of the German Army Kampfgruppe von Cochenhausen, 2nd Panzer Division. On 21st December Panzer Lehr battle group was pulled out of the fight for Bastogne and regrouped with 2nd Panzer Division and the 116th Panzer Division Windhund for an assault on the town of Dinant to secure the crossing over the river Meuse. It fought its way through the town of St Hubert and the road to Dinant seemed open. Rochefort was taken on 23rd December 1944.
On the 24th December 1944 the advanced column of Panther tanks approached the junction of the N510 road with the N48. The local story is that the German's asked at the cafe if the road to Dinant was open, had vehicles been using it recently. The staff said it was mined and dangerous so the Panzer V commander decided to go through the fields. This Panzer V Ausf. G was the lead tank. It drove over a mine and was put out of action in the field below the Chateau Acteau.
It was left there for some time after the war. The Americans tested anti tank weapons on it. American Army engineers stripped it to try and make it lighter but they could not get it out of the field. It was during this period that the hatches, tracks and road wheels were removed. The Panther had ejectable hatches, so the crew would eject them and leave them on the ground. The cafe owner Marthe Monrique rescued the tank from the field in 1948 and put in pride of place next to the Cafe called "Le Tank" at the crossroads, as a monument.
A little more on the battle around Celles. When Panzer Lehr resumed its advance to Dinant it ran into the combat command A of the US 2nd Armored Division near Buissonville. On Christmas Day the protective winter thick cloud cover disappeared and the full force of the Allies air power was deployed, bringing the Panzer Divisions to a virtual standstill. The majority of 2nd Panzer's tanks, under Major Ernst von Cochenhausen had become surrounded near the town of Celles.
On 26th of December the rest of Panzer Lehr made two attempts to relieve them but they were turned back by allied fighter bombers. Cochenhausen and 600 or so of his men managed to escape on foot, having been forced to abandon all of the Division's tanks and equipment to the advancing Allies.
