Badwater Salt Flats

 

Tortilla Flat is Arizona's smallest town. It is hidden in a canyon along the Apache Trail just east of Canyon Lake.

 

Originally Tortilla Flat was a camping ground for the prospectors who searched for gold in the Superstition Mountains in the mid to late 1800s. In 1904 it became a freight camp for workers and freight haulers on their way to the construction site of Theodore Roosevelt Dam. A flood in 1942 badly damaged the town, resulting in many residents moving away. Today Tortilla Flat is made up primarily of a small store and restaurant, which were constructed in the late 1980s after a fire consumed the existing store and restaurant on the same site. Several hiking trails into the Superstition Mountains begin near Tortilla Flat.

 

In the early 1900s, Tortilla Flat was a stage stop for tourists on their way to see the Roosevelt dam.

 

The name "Tortilla Flat" originated from the cowboys who used to drive cattle from Globe to Phoenix. While in Phoenix, rancher Mr. Cline, and his fellow cowboys celebrated their sale, and, having a little too much to drink, forgot to get supplies while they were in town. Which is how they ended up with only flour to make tortillas when they camped at the flat and were stranded.

Blowing Rock, North Carolina

Reference Number: 13000978

The historic district comprised of Flat Top Estate, now Moses H. Cone Memorial Park, is significant at the state level under National Register Criterion A as an example of a Country Place era estate. At Flat Top, Moses Cone established a gentleman's country retreat in the style of those established by American captains of industry of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The historic district is one of the largest and best preserved country estates in western North Carolina, incorporating a large manor house surrounded by orchards, pastures, meadows, lakes and other constructed water features, roads, and forests. The historic district is also significant at a state level under National Register Criterion B in the area of industry for its historic association with Moses Cone, who revolutionized textile manufacturing in the South, and particularly in North Carolina, during the late nineteenth century. In partnership with his brother Ceasar, Moses Cone reorganized the marketing of textiles by southern textile mills and introduced the manufacture of denim in the South. The entrepreneurial efforts of Moses Cone during the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries throughout the southeast region affected this industry throughout the country. The historic district is nationally significant under National Register Criterion C in the area of landscape architecture for the planning of the estate, in particular the extensive network of carriage roads and associated plantings designed by Moses Cone. The carriage roads are among very few such systems in private estates ofthis period in this country; represent extensive and careful design and planning; and remain nearly intact today. The historic district also includes the Colonial Revival style manor house, significant at the state level in the area of Architecture. The association of the Flat Top Estate Historic District with the Blue Ridge Parkway, and its role as a recreational area along the parkway, are not considered as part of this nomination. The structures of Flat Top Estate are closely related to the surrounding environment. Archeological remains, such as trash pits, privies, wells, and other structural remains which may be present, can provide information valuable to the understanding and interpretation of the contributing structures. Information concerning land-use patterns, agricultural practices, social standing and social mobility, as well as structural details, is often only evident in the archeological record. Therefore, archeological remains may well be an important component of the significance of the structures. At this time very limited investigation has been done to discover these remains, but it is likely that they exist, and this should be considered in any development of the property.

Killdeers are some of the most annoying birds, always screaming and running near you on the ground. Well I found the area this one's nest was at so I could get a photo of it doing it's little defense dance. They act hurt to try and get you to go towards them and away from the nest.
