Sheriff's Office Makes Arrests In Case
Three separate episodes of vandalism have defaced multiple areas of Sportsman Lake Park. These springtime crimes coupled with the memory of Christmas decoration destruction late last year has the Cullman County Park and Recreation Department on the offensive.
The first act of vandalism occurred during the middle of last week in (and around) the miniature golf course starter's house and the west gate of the children's playground area. It involved the discharging of what is believed to be a CO2 'paint ball' gun aimed at vending machines, the golf course starter house and various other visible landmarks nearby.
A second incident of a similar paint ball gun vandalism nature occurred over the weekend, according to Sportman's Lake Park Manager, Randall Cunningham.
Additionally, perhaps included during the same incidents, amateurish images depicting male genitalia in permanent marker on the public use duck feed dispensing machine were discovered.
Director of Cullman County Parks and Recreation - Doug Davenport - was none too happy about the vandalism:
"This is likely the handy work of some youngsters, or maybe some immature adults. Nonetheless, vandalism of ANY kind is absolutely not welcome at Sportsman's Lake Park (or any of our County parks). If someone wants to shoot up their own home with paint balls and draw penis pictures on their own bathroom walls ... fine. But that sort of behavior is not going to work here. We are investigating this as a direct vandalism crime against the taxpayers of Cullman County. We plan to prosecute the charges filed against the culprits to the fullest extent legally possible."
3rd Act of Vandalism
The second incident of vandalism occurred Sunday around 10:00 pm, it involved one or more motorcycles driven inside the restrooms of Sportsman's Lake Park. The motorcycle operators apparently conducted tire 'burn outs' along the floors. In viewing the surveillance video footage, immense clouds of smoke can be seen emanating from inside the restroom as the motorcycles depart the entrance from within. Besides being completely unsafe to the riders, this behavior created significant damage to the facilities.
Director Davenport describes the actions that happened after the incident:
"From the video, it looks like the individuals involved were shooting 'selfies' of themselves as they were burning up rubber inside the restrooms. We turned what we knew about this incident over to the Sheriff's Office along with a 12 minute and 3 minute video clip. It's in investigator's hands now.
I can say we sustained between $1,200 to $1,500 in damages from these crimes. We have most of the damage cleaned up, but there are still some tire marks we haven't been able to get up yet. It is like the hot rubber has fused itself into the concrete."
In response to the motorcycle incident, the Cullman County Sheriff's Office dispatched investigators to the park. After examining the evidence and video footage, the Sheriff's Office quickly made multiple arrests of suspects involved in the vandalism on Monday.
More specifics on the charges and identities of the suspects is expected to be released ... perhaps as early as today.

Eight people were hurt Thursday morning when an SUV collided with a minibus carrying clients of Pioneer Center for Human Services near Woodstock.
Woodstock firefighters responded about 8:15 a.m. Thursday to the intersection of Franklinville and Perkins roads in Seneca Township for the two-vehicle crash, Woodstock Fire Capt. Scott Nieman said.
Eight people from the Pioneer Center bus were taken to the three Centegra hospitals - in Woodstock, Huntley and McHenry - for treatment of minor injuries and precautionary measures, according to a news release from the McHenry County Sheriff's Office. The McHenry-based nonprofit serves thousands of individuals each year - including those with intellectual and developmental disabilities and the homeless, according to its website.
A white SUV could be seen with front-end damage, and a white, unmarked passenger van was in a ditch on the south side of Perkins Road after the crash.
Franklinville Road was shut down for at least an hour from Kunde Road to Perkins Road.
A preliminary investigation found that a 2016 Ford F-450 Bus, driven by Celetra Moses, 24, of Woodstock, was traveling east on Perkins Road and had stopped at the stop sign, police said. A 52-year-old Marengo woman was driving a 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe north on Franklinville Road and did not have a stop sign.
Moses failed to yield to the Hyundai and entered the intersection, where the two vehicles collided, police said. She was cited for failing to yield at an intersection.
Police do not suspect alcohol played a role in the crash.
The Pioneer Center confirmed the crash occurred in a statement on its website Thursday.
The nonprofit's co-CEO, Sam Tenuto, said the bus was taking individuals with disabilities from one of the Pioneer Center's group homes in Woodstock to day program services in McHenry.
Tenuto said staff is required to go through an online defensive driving course and "hands-on behind-the-wheel" training.
"We have a very good driving history here at Pioneer," Tenuto said. "Based on what we've seen so far, I don't see a need to change anything."
McHenry County Sheriff's Deputy Sandra Rogers said two other crashes with injuries were recorded at the same intersection in 2012 and 2014.
Rogers said she did not know any identifying information about the individuals on the bus.
Union, Wonder Lake, Huntley, Crystal Lake, Marengo, Harvard, Nunda Rural, McHenry Township, Spring Grove and Cary fire protection districts also responded to the crash.

Multiple personalities? It happens.
I don't like this as much as the photo I took yesterday. I plan on doing something different soon. Something different meaning not showing only my bare back and using only blue tones.
And,as a bonus, in a salwar kameez as well, A look that's proving to be a fan-favourite with some of you.

Settled in the late 18th Century by the Clay family, White Hall was built as a simple Georgian-style two-story brick farmhouse in 1798 by General Green Clay, with a kitchen wing being added in the early 19th Century to the side of the house. The house’s character changed radically with a major addition being undertaken to the side and rear of the original structure between 1861 and 1865, under the direction of architect Thomas Lewinski, which massively expanded the size of the house into a grand three-story mansion, and remodeled it in the then-popular Italianate style, with some Romanesque and Gothic details. The property around the house also includes multiple outbuildings, the oldest of which is the stone Georgian-style summer kitchen, built in 1790, with most of the other outbuildings being built between 1798 and 1865 of logs, rough-cut heavy timber, and locally quarried stone.
The main wing of the mansion features a red running bond brick exterior, hipped low-slope roof with multiple gables, Gothic brackets at the wide overhanging eaves, corbeling below the roofline, a central tower with a front gable roof, troifoil window, and paired arched one-over-one double-hung windows, a third floor balcony with brackets and a cast iron railing, a cast iron railing at the second floor, and a first floor entrance porch with decorative Gothic trim, brackets, paired square columns, stone floor and double entry door, and painted walls, a rusticated stone base, pilasters between the window bays and at the corners, arched windows at the third floor gables and second floor window openings, stone lintels and sills, and casement windows on the third floor of the rear facade. The house also has a rear ell, built in 1798 of flemish bond brick, which was the original Georgian-style farmhouse. The rear ell features a five-bay facade with two bays integrated into the main wing, a side gable roof with a steeper pitch than the main wing of the house, six-over-nine, four-over-four, two-over-two, and nine-over-six, decorative brackets at the eaves and decorative chimney stacks, added when the house was renovated and expanded in the 1860s, a stone block base, stone lintels and sills, and stone belt coursing between the first and second floors. The original front entrance porch/portico was replaced during a later renovation with an enclosed sun porch with massive four-over-four and two-over-two double-hung windows, a cornice with modillions and dentils, a low-slope hipped roof, and corner fluted corinthian pilasters. The rear-most ell of the house, which is two stories tall but has a much lower roofline, was built as a kitchen and service wing onto the house in the early 19th Century, and features a more rustic flemish bond brick exterior, a rear porch with an arched opening at the end wall, four-over-four and nine-over-six windows, belt coursing between the first and second floors, a stone block base, a decorative chimney added during the 1860s renovations, and stone lintels and sills on the principal facade. The house has an asymmetrical exterior, but appears picturesque, and has various layers of history very easily visible.
The house was home to General Green Clay (1757-1828) from the 1790s until his passing. Clay, a native of Virginia and early resident of Kentucky, surveyed much of the eastern and central parts of the state, and owned massive tracts of land in what is now the Kentucky Bluegrass, and was one of the wealthiest men in Kentucky during his lifetime. Green Clay owned slaves and ran a plantation out of White Hall. Upon Green Clay’s death, the estate was divided among his heirs, with his son, Cassius Marcellus Clay (1810-1903), inheriting the lands that included White Hall. Cassius Marcellus Clay, an abolitionist, freed all the slaves he inherited upon his father’s death, and helped found the town of Berea, Kentucky, donating ten acres of his lands in Madison County to abolitionist John G. Fee, whom founded Berea College in 1855. Clay was a supporter of the Republican Party in the 1850s and 1860s, being appointed as an ambassador to Russia by President Abraham Lincoln, during which time Clay’s wife, Mary Jane Warfield Clay, oversaw the renovations and expansion of the house. Clay ended up staying in Washington, DC during the outbreak of the Civil War, rallying 300 volunteers to guard the White House and US Naval Yard from potential confederate attack, as no federal troops were stationed in the city when the war broke out. Following the deployment of federal troops to guard the city, Clay departed for Russia, where he served as ambassador, securing Russia’s alliance with the union government of the United States, and was instrumental in having Russia issue an edict to the United Kingdom and France declaring Russia’s support for the union and opposition to any potential aid that the other countries would give to the Confederacy. Cassius Marcellus Clay returned to the United States in 1862, where he heavily influenced President Lincoln’s decision to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. Clay then returned to Russia in 1863, where he remained until 1869, assisting in William H. Seward’s endeavor to purchase Alaska.
Cassius Marcellus Clay was the father of two prominent women’s rights activists, Mary Barr Clay (1839-1924) and Laura Clay (1849-1941), both of whom pushed for women’s rights to vote and act as free agents in society. Both women were prominent supporters of women’s suffrage in the state of Kentucky and the south as a whole.
Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr. was the birth name of world heavyweight championship boxer Muhammad Ali, whose father had been named in tribute to Clay. However, Muhammad Ali later rejected his birth name name as being a “slaveholder’s name” of someone who “held onto white supremacy” that he felt he did not identify with, heavily influenced by his involvement with the Nation of Islam, a controversial Black Nationalist organization.
The house became part of the Kentucky State Park System in 1968, and was restored with assistance from the Kentucky Mansions Preservation Foundation and Beula C. Nunn, wife of then-governor Louie B. Nunn. The house opened to the public in 1971 as a house museum. Unfortunately, despite the house’s historic significance, due to declining attendance and a decline in heritage tourism in general, the house was handed over to Eastern Kentucky University in 2019 as a cost-saving measure. However, the house remains open for tours and events.

Multiple exposure exercise. Tried multiple exposure but without much success. I guess I need a lot more power to get the light that's needed.
Apologies to the anarchists and everyone else bored of the wall to wall royal wedding coverage, this multiple upload is for the getty royal wedding brief as described below...
"We are looking for contemporary images that show the wedding celebrations from your point of view, not the official wedding photography of the happy couple. We would like to see intimate, informal and real images of the day. It could be how you decorate your house or being with your friends in the pub watching it on TV. It could be a street party, children dressing up or granny’s famous union jack cup cakes on her commemorative plate. Perhaps the celebration is not the main feature of the image and it could be that the wedding is on TV in the background or on the front cover the newspaper left on the sofa."
