Valley Forge was the winter encampment of the Continental Army, under the command of George Washington, during the American Revolutionary War.
Full name: Humphrey Bazel Forge
Aliases: HB, HBF, Old Man, Faux Alan Moore, the Prophet
Age: 56
Nationality: English
Bio: Humphrey grew up in poverty, until he was able to afford himself to get to college, majoring in social sciences and eventually going to Leeds for history. He then worked as a janitor and a writer due to the fact no one ever really attended his history classes when he became professor in the span of ten years.
When the UK reformed and started to fall, Humphrey became a activist and outspoken critic, writing for various newspaper companies before they bankrupted. He eventually came across machines and vampires in the middle of a battle, saving a young girl. She taught him how to sew and live on the streets before dying of malaria. With his new skills set, Humphrey became a drunkard living on the streets yet as a assassin, searching for answers to come.
Personality, powers and abilities: Loud, occasionally brash, poetic and thoughtful. Humphrey is described as Alan Moore due to the way he talks and parts of his personalities run in his blood. He accepts it as a good and bad thing. Humphrey developed powers by 12, and was able to create fire out of his palms. His occultism belief made him seek for magic books which led his ability to cast and create spells. He is also a good lecturer, survivor and great observer. Very familiar with bombs and dynamites
Equipment: Wears a suit he tailor made after saving a girl, physically and mystically enchanted it protection. He commonly carries a sai around him, making him a common enemy of the undead and machines. Glass bottles, dynamites and improvised/homemade weapons.
The Pigeon Forge Parkway is usually very dense in traffic. Especially during holidays and weekends when the average speed is slower than if you were walking. But that is a testament to the popularity of the town which is filled with hundreds of shops and family orientated entertainment attractions. On this particular weekend, a classic car rally occurred with literally thousands of old cars and trucks filling the road and parking lots.
Forge - Grinding
Here is one of that last shots from my first forging experience this past weekend in Regina, Saskatchewan. Forging steel is done by repeatedly heating steel and forcefully moulding it into shape. In this case, it is shaping it into a blade. By running the blade over a bench grinder, it gives the metal a nice shine in the right light.

There are magnificent views in Valley Forge. As I have been discovering and recording its history, I have also been discovering its beauty. This particular place is a great place to go and watch the sun set. As you can see the sun has not yet set but is low in the sky. It lit the crest of the hill for a short time and I was lucky enought to be there when it did.

Dare you see a Soul at the "White Heat"?
Then crouch within the door -
Red - is the Fire's common tint -
But when the quickened Ore
Has sated Flame's conditions -
She quivers from the Forge
Without a color, but the Light
Of unannointed Blaze -
Least Village, boasts it's Blacksmith -
Whose Anvil's even ring
Stands symbol for the finer Forge
That soundless tugs - within -
Refining these impatient Ores
With Hammer, and with Blaze
Until the Designated Light
Repudiate the Forge -
Osi vedere un'Anima al "Calor Bianco"?
Allora rannicchiati dietro la porta -
Rossa - è la tinta comune del Fuoco -
Ma quando l'eccitato Metallo
Ha saziato la condizioni della Fiamma -
Lei esce fremendo dalla Fucina
Senza colore, tranne la Luce
Di una Vampa profana -
Il più piccolo Villaggio, vanta il suo Fabbro -
Della cui Incudine l'incessante tintinnio
Assurge a simbolo di una Fucina più sottile
Che senza suono batte - dentro -
Raffinando questi impazienti Metalli
Col Martello, e con la Vampa
Finché la Luce Designata
Ripudia la Fucina -

Nothing but cool weather and rain today to provide the atmosphere for a morning shoot at Valley Forge. You could almost smell the burning wood from the fires in the camp. I love to be there on days like this.
There is a fair amount of grain here so I recommend this view:

Ruckle Farm (Provincial Park): "This is the farm's oldest outbuilding. Well over 100 years old, it was constructed between 1878 and 1880, and is one of the few forge buildings remaining from that period. Look at the log ends: they were cut and squared with an axe.
Henry Ruckle and his son, Daniel Henry, were both skilled blacksmiths, and many of the farm implements they used were made in this building."
Made a visit to my friend Rob Sigafoos at his Vinewoods Forge. I took my grandson Isaac because he is an artist and I knew he'd dig seeing other creative efforts.
Rob's website is here: www.vinewoodsforge.com
You'll also see Lele Galer in one of the photos and she is also an artist. Lele uses Rob's forge/studio to work on some pieces from time to time.
Her work can be seen here: www.lelegaler.com
No1 hammer at Wortley Forge incorporates a wooden spring beam. It is of the "Belly Helve" type where a cam lobe on the cam drum lifts the hammer, it must also bend the spring beam. On release, gravity and strain energy both contribute to the hammer blow. An enormous, oak drome beam holds the structure together and damps vibration which would shake the hammer apart. Drive is via a breast shot water wheel. It is seen here with a railway axle which was a major product of this forge at one time.

The rose was hand forged by my old boyfriend, Mike Mize. We argued and he could not sleep with the full moon blazing in the great picture window. He said he went down to his forge and worked on this piece for me. A love letter was with it, like a mad woman I threw it away. Blah blah blah. It started with “My love for you will last as long as this rose.” He was killed in a car accident April 9, 2000. Drunk Driving landed him in a creek at about 3-4 AM. So tragic, he left a son in high school and a wife!! A Wife!!! He told me he was divorced but I found out that the papers were not filed. I was so angry over that I kept it to myself, she had breast cancer and passed away unnecessarily. She waited too long to get it checked and it was just awful. She started out with an alternative medicine quack and not a doctor. It still bothers me that people don’t understand that they have a responsibility to be here for their children at whatever cost. Her cancer was the kind that is genetic and she could have lived a full life with surgery and reconstruction. He didn’t have to go to a bar across a mountain and get stinking drunk. He was five miles from his family farm. The tow truck driver said that the cab of his truck smelled of whiskey so strong that if you lit a match it would catch fire. So unnecessary and irresponsible. I’m by no means a saint, I know that life happens and it’s hard, full of unpleasantries, and you can’t always get want you want. To quote Mick Jagger. Thank you for your time reading this poorly written note. Thank you for your visit, fave and comments. I’m very grateful for each one. 🙏☮️

Rogues' Forge
Deep in the King's woods lies an abandoned outpost where the Rogues of the woods have taken up residence. Here at Rogues' Forge, they craft the weapons that allow them to survive while living out of the King's favor.
The scene is the first in a series of builds built on "flexigon" bases allowing for a modular layout by adding additional foliage, trees or features to expand the layout.
This shot stems from my love of science fiction. I have visions of a large-eyed demented robot seeking to dominate its former masters. Help!
