Family portrait at the top of one of the cliffs near Seaford. Very windy indeed. I think to remember we went up there to see some flights from the Eastbourne airshow. For more pictures taken in Summer 2007 go to our photo album.

This was actually the last side I made and assembled and was by far the easiest. Only took me about 2 hours to cut the dado in the frame pieces and fit it all together. Unlike the other sides which were a huge pain in the arse. Interestingly enough, I cut the side dadoes with a table saw and they were crap. I cut these piece's dadoes with a circular saw and they were excellent. I guess my hand is just steady...

It's been one of 'those' weeks/months/years... This is just a representation of that - I HATE spiders (not them personally - just them collectively.) So, to allow this one to hang out on my leg long enough to pick up the camera, calmly change to macro setting and take the shots necessary to get this... well - it was an exercise in 'dealing with it.' We both survived.
Yes, I know, I needed to shave...

More from yesterday's very short photo session in City Hall. I haven't taken very many photos lately, and most of my shots from yesterday lacked any real originality. Not the lovely model's fault though... Wade was a pleasure to shoot as usual.
This shot should please him... he looks like he could be back in high school here. Or more specifically, a guest star on Degrassi High (the next generation).
The public witnessed a new level of escalation on October 27, 2016 in the Native struggle at Standing Rock, as police swept through an encampment in the direct path of the Dakota Access pipeline (DAPL). The resulting standoff with the National Guard, and police officers from various states, led to more than 100 arrests. Advancing authorities attacked Water Protectors with flash grenades, bean bag launchers, pepper spray and Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADs). It is crucial that people recognize that Standing Rock is part of an ongoing struggle against colonial violence. The Dakota Access pipeline (#NoDAPL) is a front of struggle in a long-erased war against Native peoples -- a war that has been active since first contact, and waged without interruption.

Gabe doesn't like heights and this hanging bridge was a bit of a challenge but he crossed it twice - running over the second time.

At 47,527 acres (192.33 km2),[1] Harriman State Park is the second largest state park in New York.[2] Located in Rockland and Orange counties 30 miles (48 km) north of New York City, it is a haven for hikers with over 200 miles (320 km) of hiking trails. The park is also known for its 31 lakes, multiple streams, public camping area, and great vistas. The park's hiking trails are currently maintained by volunteers from the New York - New Jersey Trail Conference.
On its northeastern edge, Harriman State Park borders the 5,000-acre (20 km2) Bear Mountain State Park as well as the United States Military Academy's 16,000-acre (65 km2) forest reserve. To the southwest, it partly borders the state-owned 18,000-acre (73 km2) Sterling Forest reserve. These areas, together with the state's Storm King forest reserve of 1,900 acres (7.7 km2), amount to contiguous protected forests that are substantially larger than Harriman alone.

History[edit]
Mary Harriman Rumsey, daughter of E.H. and Mary Averell Harriman
Edward Harriman and Mary Averell Harriman owned 30,000 acres (120 km2) in Arden, New York as part of their estate. They opposed the state's decision to build a prison at Bear Mountain and wanted to donate some of their land to the state in order to build a park. A year after the death of her husband in 1909, Mary Harriman proposed to Governor Charles Evans Hughes that she would donate 10,000 acres (40 km2) of land and $1 million for the creation of a new state park. As part of the deal, the state would do away with the plan to build the prison, appropriate an additional $2.5 million to acquire additional land and construct park facilities. The Palisades Interstate Park Commission would have its authority extended north into the Ramapo Mountains and the Hudson Highlands, and New Jersey would also contribute an amount of money deemed reasonable by the Commission. The state agreed and on October 29, 1910, W. Averell Harriman presented a deed for the land and a million-dollar check to the Commission.

In 1913, Major William A. Welch started construction on the road from Bear Mountain to Sloatsburg, known today as the Seven Lakes Drive. In 1962 a new road from the Southfields section of Tuxedo to Kanawake Circle was opened. There were also numerous other roads completed around Bear Mountain and Dunderberg Mountain in order to make it easier for people to reach the new park. In addition, there was steamboat service from Manhattan offering round-trip tickets for 85 cents for adults and 45 cents for children.
The park received a large influx of free labor during the Great Depression. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) offered thousands of young men work such as building roads, trails, camps and lakes. Projects completed by the CCC in the park included Pine Meadow, Wanoksink, Turkey Hill, Welch, Silvermine and Massawippa Lakes. In 1993, the World Orienteering Championships were held at Harriman State Park.
Trails[edit]
There are more than forty marked hiking trails (225 miles total) in Harriman, and another 57 unmarked trails and woods road (103 miles, foot traffic only). Some of the better known trails include the following:
Appalachian trail, 18.8 miles (30.3 km) are within the park
Blue Disc Trail, 2.8 miles (4.5 km)
Long Path, 25 miles (40 km) are within the park

White Bar trail, 7.4 miles (11.9 km)
In addition to the hiking trails there are a number of horse trails in the southeastern portion of the park and a mountain bike trail at the Anthony Wayne Recreation Area in the northeast of the park. In winter some of the trails are open for cross-country skiing. The hiking trails are maintained by the New York - New Jersey Trail Conference.
