** Its rather sad to be posting the final shot from a trip but this is the last one from the road trip we took in 2016 . We drove from Santa Fe to New Orleans via parts of Texas . Certainly saw quite a range of different landscapes and cultures .
One of the highlights was spending time at Jefferson Island in Louisiana . Roseate Spoonbills are certainly the oddest birds I have ever seen and it was a good opportunity to see large group of them close up . I am in debt to two flickr contacts Cajun Snapper and Larry Daugherty who gave me hints and directions to a small pool on Jefferson Island.
Well that’s the end of travel shots from 2016 so will be posting stuff from 2017 soon. Its a good job I am so far behind given that this year does not look like it will be adding a great deal to my travel collection
THANKS FOR YOUR VISITING BUT CAN I ASK YOU NOT TO FAVE AN IMAGE WITHOUT ALSO MAKING A COMMENT. MANY THANKS KEITH. ANYONE MAKING MULTIPLE FAVES WITHOUT COMMENTS WILL SIMPLY BE BLOCKED
Gight is an estate in the parish of Fyvie in the Formartine area of Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is best known as the location of the 16th-century Gight (or Formartine) Castle, ancestral home of Lord Byron. Gight Castle is about 4 miles (6.4 km) miles east of Fyvie, just north of the River Ythan, and 1 mile (1.6 km) mile south of Cottown. The castle was built to an L-shaped plan, probably in the 1570s by George Gordon, the second laird. Ranges of outbuildings were built later. The tower has a vaulted basement, and a turnpike stair at the end of a long passage. There was a hall on the first floor. George Gordon had no children, and the property passed to his brother, James Gordon of Cairnbannoch and Gight. His son Alexander married Agnes Beaton, daughter of David Beaton, Archbishop of St Andrews. Alexander was killed at Dundee in 1579, and his daughter Elizabeth married George Home, 1st Earl of Dunbar in 1590. It was later occupied by Catherine Gordon Byron, the mother of Lord Byron, but she sold it in 1787 to George Gordon, 3rd Earl of Aberdeen to pay off her debts. It was then occupied by the Earl's son, George Gordon, Lord Haddo, until the latter's early death in 1791, since when it has been uninhabited. It was designated a scheduled monument in 1965. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gight
The Gight Woods is a protected natural forest. Gight Wood, on the slopes of the River Ythan, is one of the last remnants of ancient woodland in Aberdeenshire. This broadleaved woodland of hazel, oak and rowan supports badgers, red squirrels, brown hares and foxes. Highlights include: Wildflowers, Woodland walk, Hazel woodland Best time to visit? Apr to Aug for wildflowers, May to Sep for hazelwoods, Anytime for walking. A path leads through the woodland and up a few steep climbs to a viewpoint. Bluebells can be seen in early summer. scottishwildlifetrust.org.uk/reserve/gight-wood/

We owe her, in all the way of life.
From the very beginning to even after the end of our journey, it's impossible to pay her debt.
Which is just because she is a Mother.
Debt trap. Sounds almost like a death trap. It’s a bottomless hole, which you can fall into for the rest of your life
Tom Fruin’s Stained Glass House currently on display just adjacent Jane’s Carousel by Brooklyn side tower of the Brooklyn Bridge until June of this year 2015. It was located here as part of the DUMBO Arts Festival in the fall of 2014 a collaborative project with CoreAct called Reflection/Kolonihavehus [dumboartsfestival.com/art/reflection_kolonihavehus/]. Tom Fruin’s Kolonihavehus as this work is called, made its debt in front of the Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen a few years back and actually was shown in many locations in Europe, Sweden, Denmark, Austria and the Czech Republic before its engagement here in New York City. It’s a 12’ x 12’ x 14’ structure made out of hand-welded iron and more than 30 individual panels of reclaimed plexiglass that is very portable. It is lit up at night and during the day wonderful reflects light it current wide open space. This image was captured late in the afternoon in February 2015, the ‘wretched’ snow which is still around today in March can been seen on the ground facing northeast with the Manhattan Bridge and East River in the background; Olympus E-5 with Olympus Zuiko Digital 12-60mm F2.8-4.0 lens, manual exposures on Slik tripod HDR processing Photomatix, cleaning up in Adobe Lightroom.
I’ve captured Tom Fruin’s art before see the image of his Watertower in 2012 which was located on the roof a building on Jay Street not too far from this locations, nearer to the Manhattan Bridge [ www.flickr.com/photos/eugenemarrerophotography/9415731673/ ] here on my Flickr Photostream.
Manchester
After my last upload, a debt had to be duly paid and so Saturday morning was a trip into Manchester for shopping, but the good thing is that Mrs R prefers "browsing" on her own without me mopping behind. Hence we have a sound arrangement and I can wander off with my camera instead. I've been meaning to snap this well known landmark for ages but it really need some sunshine to showcase it in its full splendour. Apologies for the obvious angle but there's no point in uploading a quirky angle first when showing the architecture of this building. Tried to find some local history about the place but surprisingly there is very little but I've included what I've found...
The Peveril Of The Peak is one of Manchester's most celebrated pubs, not least because of its two tone green tiled exterior. A place that time forgot, a Victorian curiosity tucked behind the more modern Bridgewater Hall. Sitting on an island of land between Chepstow Street and Bridgewater Street this tile clad Victorian pub certainly stands out from its surroundings. It’s the only ‘detached’ pub in Manchester city centre that you can walk right around.
The Grade II-listed building dates back to the 1820s and retains its iconic triangular shape clad with green tiles on all sides (which were added in the 1920s). The name is said to commemorate a horse-drawn stagecoach that ran between Manchester and London. Ironically though, the pub, by the same name in Derbyshire, claims that its name came from a book of the same name by Sir Walter Scott that references Peveril Castle near Castleton in Derbyshire.

PLZ DONT VIEW PUT COMMENT
For this week's Steam Sunday here's another from the first outing of Reading and Northern 2102 this year. The stout 4-8-4 was built in the Reading Railroad's own shops in 1945 and from the railroad's corporate website here is a bit of history:
The company, using parts from a former 76-foot Class I-10sa Consolidation 1923 Baldwin locomotive, created a fleet of 30 middleweight engines in the T-1 series. The goal of building these locomotives was to be able to haul both freight and passenger traffic along the rails.
The original Baldwin-built I-10 class, which were large 2-8-0 locomotives, would become the T-1 class, converted to much larger 4-8-4 engines by redesigning and lengthening the Boiler and replacing the Frame and Wheels with brand new parts. Baldwin supplied the parts, but the rebuilding was done in the Reading Railroad’s own Shops right in Reading, PA.
They are leading a 15 car train up from North Reading to historic Jim Thorpe across the most spectacular location along the route, the famous Hometown High Bridge, a more than 1000 ft long steel trestle that stands 168 (or 161 or 157 depending on where you look!) feet above the Little Schuylkill River at its highest point. This is MP 107.3 on modern day RBMN's Reading Division mainline, though historically this was the Central Railroad of New Jersey's Nesquehoning Branch.
A little history of the line courtesy of Rush Township's home page:
The Nesquehoning Valley Railroad Company, part of the Lehigh Coal & Navigation Company, built a 17-mile rail spur from Mauch Chunk (modern-day Jim Thorpe) to Tamanend that was finished in 1870. It connected with rail lines that were leased and operated by the Philadelphia & Reading Coal and Iron Company near Tamanend. This major freight and passenger rail interchange was at the small village of Haucks, which no longer exists today but was near the current Air Products facility near Quakake. Throughout the late 1800s, there were railroad interchanges in Haucks, Tamanend, and Quakake. On March 23, 1871, the Nesquehoning-Tamanend line became part of the Central Railroad of New Jersey (CNJ), which leased many LC&N assets on that date.
Millions of tons of anthracite coal and freight would pass over that rail line in the early 1870s, and the demand for anthracite coal reached historic heights. In 1874, a financial panic led to a downturn in anthracite demand that would last several years. The CNJ, which had continued to rack up debts as it leased other anthracite assets across Eastern Pennsylvania, could not meet its financial obligations. The company continued to operate until the 1920s, at which point the United States Supreme Court ordered CNJ and other railroads that owned coal companies to divest (that is, to separate the coal companies from the railroad companies) because their joint operations violated the Sherman Anti-Trust Act and the Hepburn Act. By 1921, the Central Railroad of New Jersey was out of the coal business – and railroad traffic on Rush Township railbeds continued to decline.
The Nesquehoning-Tamanend line features the railroad “High Bridge,” which spans the Little Schuylkill River at a height of 157 feet. The bridge is cited in historical documents dating back to at least the early 1880s. The bridge, formally called the Hometown Trestle, is 981 feet long. The original bridge was a massive wooden structure, but it was rebuilt out of steel in 1931.

My friend has problems with winter and autumn
They give him prescriptions,
They shine bright lights on him
They say it's genetic,
They say he can't help it
They say you can catch it
But sometimes you're born with it
My friend has blight
he gets shakes in the night
And they say there is no way
That they could have caught it in
Time takes its toll on him, it is traditional
It is inherited predisposition
All day I've been wondering
What is inside of me,
Who can I blame for it?
I say
It runs in the family,
this famine that carries me
To such great lengths
To open my legs
Up to anyone who'll have me
It runs in the family,
I come by it honestly
Do what you want
'Cause who knows
It might fill me up
Fill me up
My friend's depressed,
She's a wreck, she's a mess
They've done all sorts of tests and
They guess it has something to do
With her grandmother's grandfather's grandmother
Civil war soldiers who
Badly infected her
My friend has maladies, rickets, and allergies
That she dates back to the 17th century
Somehow she manages, in her misery -
Strips in the city
And shares all her best tricks with
Me?
Well, I'm well.
Well, I mean I'm in hell.
Well, I still have my health
(At least that's what they tell me)
If wellness is this, what in hell's name is sickness?
But business is business!
And business
Runs in the family, we tend to bruise easily
Bad in the blood, I'm telling you 'cause
I just want you to know me
Know me and my family
We're wonderful folks but
Don't get too close to me
'Cause you might knock me up
Knock me up
Mary have mercy.
Now look what I've done
But don't blame me because
I can't help where I come from
And running is something that we've always done
Well and mostly I can't even tell what I'm running from
Run from their pity
From responsibility
Run from the country
And run from the city
I can run from the law
I can run from myself
I can run for my life
I can run into debt
I can run from it all
I can run till I'm gone
I can run for the office
And run from the 'cause
I can run using every
Last ounce of energy
I cannot
I cannot
I cannot
Run from my family
They're hiding inside me
Corpses on ice
Come in if you'd like
But just don't tell my family
They'd never forgive me
They say that I'm crazy
But they would say anything
If it would shut me up
Shut me up
Breakdancing

I have 5 beautiful daughters, god.. I want to see them, I want to be there when they grow up but I can't let them see me, not like this.
I have a license to drive the fork lifts, I'm good at that. Problem is I have about $10,000 in tickets for panhandling. The cops took my license, and can't get that back until I pay off those fines.
RISI rounds the corner into Ridgeway PA on a cold, grizzly, January day. Many thanks to Keith Burkey - Forever in debt to his priceless advice.
We took another opportunity to visit another beautiful National Trust property on Monday 19 April 2021. Although we have lived in south Buckinghamshire now for more than twenty years, this was the first time we’ve been to the gardens.
As you can see from the photographs a very special place. And great for walking!
West Wycombe Park has been the home of the Dashwood family for over 300 years. Set in 45 acres of landscaped parklands, the house we see today is the 18th-century creation of Sir Francis Dashwood, the 2nd Baronet, founder of the Dillettanti Society and the Hell-Fire Club.
West Wycombe Park grounds re-open from 1 April 2021 and the house from 28 June 2021, subject to Covid restrictions. For everyone's safety you will need to book your visit in advance through our website to guarantee entry. Tickets go live every Friday for the following week.
From earliest times the manor of West Wycombe belonged to the Bishops of Winchester; it is listed as theirs in the Domesday Book but no bishop ever resided there and it was let to the Dormer family. Robert Dormer, created Earl of Caernarvon by Charles I in 1628 supported the King during the Civil War but was killed in an ambush.
His son, the 2nd Earl, deeply in debt, sold the estate to Thomas Lewis, a merchant and alderman of the City of London. Lewis married Elizabeth, the daughter of his friend and fellow alderman, Francis Dashwood.
As part of a family settlement in 1698, Lewis transferred the property to his wife's two brothers, Samuel and Francis Dashwood. Francis was knighted in 1702 and in 1707 he acquired a baronetcy, the first granted by the crown after the union of England and Scotland. The Dashwood's became the premier baronets of Great Britain.
Queen Anne to Palladian
In 1706, Francis bought his brother’s share of the estate for £15,000 and he had the original mansion demolished and a new one built; a modest Queen Anne house with formal gardens.
The 2nd Baronet, Sir Francis, inspired by his travels to Italy, spent his life converting the home into a Palladian style villa. He redesigned the grounds, moving to a more naturalistic landscape, and added temples and follies in a classical style. Delighting in the theatrical, there was even a frigate kept on the lake, used to re-enact sea battles as entertainment for house guests (cannonballs dredged from the lake are on display in the house).

"A Fight Over Argentina’s Debt Produces No Winners" by STEVEN DAVIDOFF SOLOMON via NYT t.co/aOUI7GclNI (via Twitter twitter.com/felipemassone/status/699756272938323968)
The nation's 45th president will face complex fiscal and economic realities. In just eight years, interest on the national debt will become the third-largest "program" in the federal budget. What steps can the next president take to ensure we have the resources necessary to invest in critical areas of our economy? In this session, we heard directly from economic policy advisors to the presidential campaigns — Sam Clovis (right), National Co-Chair and Chief Policy Advisor, Donald J. Trump For President, Inc. and David Kamin, Economic Policy Advisor to Hillary For America — who will tell us how their candidates are preparing to address America’s unsustainable fiscal outlook and secure a strong economy of the future. Interviewed by John Harwood (left), chief Washington correspondent, CNBC, and political writer for The New York Times.
