I believe this is a Prevost bus
This cup and saucer set is in an absolutely delightful pattern called “Echo.” This pattern in the Color-Seal line were produced by Franciscan in 1954 only.

I missed most of this, but managed to catch a few pics of the final night. Echoes of Oz in Bradford City Park, by Irregular Arts.
Much smaller than a great horned owl, Echo is a barred owl. When people come close to his enclosure, he often tries to scare them away with a "who-WHO" that has earned him his name.

The first visitors to Indian Echo Caverns, most likely were the Susquehannock Indians. They lived along the Swatara creek, upon which the mouth of the caverns sits. It is currently believed that they used the caverns as a refuge during inclement weather because of the constant 52° temperature inside the caverns. The Susquehannock vanished from the area in the 1670's leaving the region around the caverns virtually unoccupied.
The first non-Native American explorers of the caverns were most likely French fur trappers. They traveled along the rivers and creeks of the north east during the latter part of the 17th Century and into the early 18th Century. Most likely they discovered the mouth of the caverns as they traveled on the Swatara Creek. These intrepid explorers wrote about their tales in the caverns attracting more and more explorers.
The Caverns were first opened to the general public in 1929, when Mr. John Bieber opened the doors to the caverns. Mr. Bieber realized that many people wishing to visit the caverns might be put off by the treacherous, uneven terrain that nature created. Bieber undertook a massive commercialization process, in which all of the pathways in the caverns were made safe for travel, as well as opening up many rooms closed off because of huge mineral deposits. The caverns were a natural Mecca of the region, attracting thousands of visitors in its first years. However, sadly, the caverns fell upon hard times during the Great Depression, and Mr. Bieber lost ownership to the bank. All was not lost, for in 1942, Mr. Edward S. Swartz, a Hershey native purchased the caverns. Today, the ownership of the caverns still remain in his family, with hundreds of thousands of visitors walking the paths of the Susquehannocks each year.
Mothers receive packages of RUTF to treat their malnourished children at home. At an out-patient therapeutic feeding centre run by UNICEF’s local partner, DMO (Deegroor Medical Organization). Baidoa, Bay region. ) Operating in Baidoa district, Bay region, the partner provides a full package of health and nutrition services, including outpatient therapeutic programme (OTP); infant and young child feeding (IYCF); and nutrition, health and hygiene promotion (NHHP), among others. Nutrition screening for children 6-59 months is carried out on a daily basis at multiple DMO facilities, using measurement tools such as Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) and Weight for Height. Children with severe acute malnutrition but no medical complications receive ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) as part of the treatment. Mothers are given information on immunization, deworming and how to ward off infection for their children. Somalia has had a persistent high level of malnutrition among children. At the moment (December 2015), 1 in every 7 Somali children under-five is suffering from acute malnutrition; nearly 15% of mothers are also malnourished. The situation is particularly worse for children in the Central South regions. Despite a slight improvement from Serious to Alert (2.6% in 2014, 2.2% in 2015), as many as 308,000 children under-five are acutely malnourished, 56,000 of them severely malnourished.Funding for this project is made possible by the European Commission's Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection department (ECHO). A total of US$2.8 million is going towards UNICEF’s work in Nutrition, Cash Transfers and WASH for one year, starting April 2015, with $1.5 million goes towards Nutrition.
Okay, this has nothing to do with the photo... but I have to get it off my chest.
If I hear one more media person talk about the "extra hour of daylight" we now have.... I'm going to explode.
(Of course, the upside of exploding would be the release of all the pent-up ideas in my head...)
I am off work today with 'man' flu so have had a little time to apply my photoshop skils. This is a combination of 2 of my own shots and 3 free textures from

If you look closely, you can see the road to Echo Park at the bottom of the canyon, the road across the valley (that we didn't completely traverse), and some rafters stopping at the park for a break.

Glen Echo, built 1773, is located in Southeastern Georgia. It was built in the style of a plantation plain house.
My cousin having fun with the echoing effect in the Vikos gorge, from a balcony near the monastery of Agia Paraskeyi.
I FINALLY made my way around Echo Park Lake! I broke my foot a week before the lake reopened back in June. Three months (and one surgery) later, I finally walked the perimeter of the lake (i use the term "walk" loosely). I didn't walk around the lake gracefully - hard to be graceful on crutches, but I was on two feet. And that in itself, was a great feeling. :)
The landside bar at Newcastle Airport, the ECHO BAR, is pictured on February 8th 2011. A sign to the left of the picture advertises a pasty and a pint for £5-50 - the lass behind the bar is still waiting for the rush! On April 21st 2011 the bar was being de-stocked so it looks like it is closing, as another bar, the CONDECO BAR, is opening on the main concourse. This whole waiting area was taken out of use and locked up on April 28th 2011.
Jasper National Park:
"The sun does arise,
And make happy the skies;
The merry bells ring
To welcome the spring;
The skylark and thrush,
The birds of the bush,
Sing louder around
To the bell's cheerful sound,
While our sports shall be seen
On the Echoing Green..." - William Blake
Forgive the wrinkled paper. Just moved and my papers are a mess! Bare with me.
I just couldn't wait to play. ; )
The echoes inside the baptistery are such that, as this security guard demonstrates, you can have a one-person chorus.
