it is assumed that Gorinchem was founded circa 1000 CE by fishermen and farmers on the raised land near the mouth of the river Linge at the Merwede. (Home of Gorik) is first mentioned in a document from 1224 in which Floris IV granted people from Gorinchem exemption of toll payments throughout Holland.

Somewhere between 1247 and 1267, Gorinchem became property of the Lords of Arkel. At the end of the 13th century earthen mounts reinforced with palisades were built around the settlement to protect it from domination by the neighboring counties of Holland and Gelre. Half a century later real city walls were built complete with 7 gates and 23 watchtowers. Otto van Arkel granted it city rights on 11 November 1322.

Jan van Arkel had a dispute with Albert I, brother of Willem V of Holland, leading to war and subsequently to the annexation of Gorinchem to Holland in 1417. This resulted in increased trade and Gorinchem grew to be the eighth city of Holland.

On 9 July 1572, the Watergeuzen (Dutch rebels against Spanish rule) conquered the city and captured 19 Catholic priests and monks. Because they refused to renounce their faith, these priests and monks were brought to Brielle where they were hanged and were from then on known among Catholics as the Martyrs of Gorkum.

By the 16th century, the city walls were so deteriorated that they were replaced with new fortifications and eleven bastions that still are almost completely intact. The new walls were completed in 1609 and were located further from the town centre, making the city twice as large. In 1673, Gorinchem became part of the old Dutch Water Line.

The city walls had four city gates: the Arkel Gate in the north, the Dalem Gate in the east, the Water Gate in the south (where the ferry to Woudrichem was), and the Kansel Gate in the west. Of these four gates, only the Dalem Gate remains. The others were removed in the 19th century to make way for vehicular traffic. A portion of the Water Gate was preserved in the gardens of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.

  

The great tit got the nut from our window board. When I hear the little feet klicking on the metal it's time to get the camera...

After the sinking of the original Pride in May 1986, the Board of Directors of the non-profit public-private agency that operated Pride for the city were reluctant to build a replacement, but an outpouring of unsolicited financial support from the public encouraged the Board into going forward with a new ship. By late summer of 1986, plans for a replacement were under way. The ship was to be named Pride of Baltimore II and serve as a sailing memorial to the original Pride. It was to be another "Baltimore Clipper" topsail schooner that would continue the mission of the first ship. With an insurance payment of just under $500,000, along with a state grant of $1 million, and various contributions from private citizens, students, corporations, and foundations of over $2.5 million, sufficient funds were available to build a new ship and endow an operating fund.

All is occupied, but feel free to come and visit the public part :)

Coins are used infrequently nowadays as most of us rely on notes or card payments but in the past, they were very important, particularly gold and silver coins.

This is a history of the 20th Century Kings and Queens of England in silver coins. The first two are silver rupees from India, followed by two Australian silver threepences and finishing with Canadian silver dollar!

Mainau, Konstanz, Baden-Württemberg, Deutschland.

 

Mainau es una isla de Alemania, localizada en el Lago de Constanza y más precisamente en la parte noroccidental conocida como lago de Überlingen (Überlinger See). La isla está conectada por el sur con la tierra firme mediante un puente.

 

Mainau se encuentra comprendida en el territorio comunal de la ciudad de Constanza y de hecho la mejor forma de llegar a la misma es por medio del transporte urbano de esta ciudad, que tiene una línea de autobús con parada en el acceso a la isla. Ésta es un importante destino turístico gracias a su suave clima, merced al cual alberga una vegetación muy rica en especies, incluso subtropicales y tropicales.

 

La entrada a la isla se hace previo pago, pero su cuidada vegetación, los millones de flores que la decoran (como es evidente, fundamentalmente en los meses de primavera y verano), sus invernaderos de palmas y de mariposas - en el cual estas sobrevuelan libremente a los visitantes y son de gran variedad y grandes tamaños -, su espacio con variados tipos de columpios complejos, y su pequeña zona con diferentes animales, junto a otros detalles, son de un interés objetivo.

 

De acuerdo con todo lo anterior, el lugar también es denominado La isla de las flores.

 

Mainau is an island in Germany, located on Lake Constance and more precisely in the northwestern part known as Lake Überlingen (Überlinger See). The island is connected by the south with the mainland by means of a bridge.

 

Mainau is included in the communal territory of the city of Constanza and in fact the best way to get there is through the urban transport of this city, which has a bus line with stop at the access to the island. This is an important tourist destination thanks to its mild climate, thanks to which it shelters a vegetation very rich in species, even subtropical and tropical.

 

The entrance to the island is made after payment, but its careful vegetation, the millions of flowers that decorate it (as is evident, mainly in the months of spring and summer), its greenhouses of palms and butterflies - in which they fly over freely to visitors and they are of great variety and size - their space with varied types of complex swings, and their small area with different animals, together with other details, are of an objective interest.

 

In agreement with all the previous thing, the place also is denominated the island of the flowers.

Found on the Gritty Streets of Lima, Ohio.

A payment my dad received in the 60's. A wonderful surprise : )

Bexhill or Bexhill-on-Sea is a seaside town situated in the county of East Sussex in South East England. An ancient town and part of the local-government district of Rother, Bexhill is home to a number of archaeological sites, a Manor House in the Old Town, an abundance of Edwardian and Victorian architecture, and the famous De La Warr Pavilion: today a centre for contemporary art – which has featured the work of Andy Warhol, Cerith Wyn Evans and Richard Wilson amongst others – and an auditorium, where Bob Marley had his first UK appearance and has since seen performances by Elvis Costello, Goldfrapp, Ray Davies, Years & Years, Patti Smith and Laurie Anderson.

 

The first reference to Bexhill, or Bexelei as it was originally called, was in a charter granted by King Offa of Mercia in 772 AD. It is recorded that King Offa had 'defeated the men of Hastings' in 771 AD. At this time, the term Hastings would have referred to this whole area rather than the town itself as it does today. In the charter, King Offa established a church and religious community in Bexhill.

 

During the Norman Conquest of 1066 it appears that Bexhill was largely destroyed. The Domesday survey of 1086 records that the manor was worth £20 before the conquest, was 'waste' in 1066 and was worth £18 10s in 1086. King William I used the lands he had conquered to reward his knights and gave Bexhill manor to Robert, Count of Eu, with most of the Hastings area. Robert's grandson, John, Count of Eu, gave back the manor to the bishops of Chichester in 1148 and it is probable that the first manor house was built by the bishops at this time. The later manor house, the ruins of which can still be seen at the Manor Gardens in Bexhill Old Town, was built about 1250, probably on the instructions of St. Richard, Bishop of Chichester. St Richard's Catholic College, the local Catholic school, was duly for said bishop. The Manor House was the easternmost residence owned by the bishops and would have been used as a place to stay while travelling around or through the eastern part of their diocese. There were often disputes between the Bishops of Chichester and the Abbots of Battle Abbey, usually about land ownership in this area. In 1276 a large portion of Bexhill was made into a park for hunting and in 1447 Bishop Adam de Moleyns was given permission to fortify the Manor House.

 

In 1561 Queen Elizabeth I took possession of Bexhill Manor and three years later she gave it to Sir Thomas Sackville, Earl of Dorset. The Earls, later Dukes, of Dorset owned Bexhill until the mid 19th century. Their main residences were Buckhurst Place in Sussex and Knole House in Kent.

 

In 1804 soldiers of the King's German Legion were stationed in barracks at Bexhill. These troops were Hanoverians who had escaped when their country was overrun by Napoleon's French Army. As King George III was also the Elector of Hanover, he welcomed them and they fought as part of the British Army. At about this time, defensive Martello Towers were built along the south east coast, some near Bexhill, in order to repel any French invasion. In 1814 the soldiers of the King's German Legion left Bexhill, eventually playing an important part in the Battle of Waterloo the following year. The German troops had been here to protect Bexhill from the French. However, many of the local people were actively trading with the enemy by way of smuggling. The best known of the local smugglers were in the Little Common Gang and the most famous incident was the infamous Battle of Sidley Green in 1828.

 

In 1813 Elizabeth Sackville had married the 5th Earl De La Warr, and when the male line of the Dukes of Dorset died out in 1865 she and her husband inherited Bexhill.

 

It was the 7th Earl De La Warr who decided to transform the small rural village of Bexhill into an exclusive seaside resort. He contracted the builder, John Webb, to construct the first sea wall and to lay out De La Warr Parade. Webb, in part payment for his work, was given all the land extending from Sea Road to the Polegrove, south of the railway line. Opened in 1890, the luxurious Sackville Hotel was built for the 7th Earl De La Warr and originally included a house for the use of his family. In 1891 Viscount Cantelupe, his eldest surviving son, married Muriel Brassey, the daughter of Sir Thomas and the late Annie, Lady Brassey of Normanhurst Court near Bexhill. The Manor House was fully refurbished so that Lord and Lady Cantelupe could live in style as Lord and Lady of the Manor. Finally, the 7th Earl De La Warr transferred control of his Bexhill estate to Viscount Cantelupe. When the 7th Earl De La Warr died in 1896

 

Viscount Cantelupe became the 8th Earl De La Warr. At this time he organised the building on the sea front of the Kursaal, a pavilion for refined entertainment and relaxation. He also had a bicycle track made, with a cycle chalet, at the eastern end of De La Warr Parade. These amenities were provided to promote the new resort. Meanwhile, many independent schools were being attracted to the expanding town due to its health-giving reputation. The railway came through Bexhill in 1846, the first railway station being a small country halt situated roughly where Sainsbury's car park is today. This was some distance from the village on the hill. A new station, north of Devonshire Square, was opened in 1891 to serve the growing resort. In 1902 the current railway station was opened and a Bexhill West Station was built for the newly built Crowhurst Branch Line.

 

1902 was the year that Bexhill became an Incorporated Borough. This was the first Royal Charter granted by Edward VII. Bexhill was the last town in Sussex to be incorporated and it was the first time a Royal Charter was delivered by motorcar. To celebrate the town's newfound status and to promote the resort, the 8th Earl De La Warr organised the country's first ever motorcar races along De La Warr Parade in May 1902. The town was scandalised at this time by the divorce of Earl De La Warr.

 

Muriel had brought the action on the grounds of adultery and abandonment. She was granted a divorce and given custody of their three children. Muriel, with her children, Myra, Avice and Herbrand, went back to live with Earl Brassey at Normanhurst Court. The 8th Earl De La Warr remarried but was again divorced for adultery. He also suffered recurrent and well-publicised financial difficulties. At the start of the First World War in 1914 the Earl bought a Royal Naval commission. He died of fever at Messina in 1915.

 

Herbrand Edward Dundonald Brassey Sackville became the 9th Earl De La Warr. He is best known for championing the construction of the De La Warr Pavilion, which was built and opened in 1935. The 9th Earl also became Bexhill's first socialist mayor. He died in 1976.

 

The Second World War caused the evacuation of the schools and substantial bomb-damage to the town. Many schools returned to Bexhill after the war but there was a steady decline in the number of independent schools in the town. The break-up of the British Empire and in particular the Independence of India in 1947 hastened the process. Most of the schools were boarding and catered largely for the children of the armed forces overseas and of the colonial administration. Although the number of schools decreased, many of the parents and former pupils had fond memories of the town and later retired to Bexhill.

Grinning, Everett listens to Zaira go over the specs of the garden like the expert she is. Something about her passion amplifies his smile even more, so when she moves to pat his arm, he attempts to grab it. "You know I don't work for free," he returns swiftly. "Not in this economy. I'll be your beast of burden, but it's gonna cost you." He wiggles brows. "On completion of course, I'm not greedy," the boy adds.

 

Zaira pouted a bit, not that he could see it but she did. Holding his hand she blinked and pouted "Can't it just be a graduation present? I only have so many chocolate wands left!" she whined clearly not getting any hints. "Or! We can sneak some ingredients and I'll make you a lovely dinner? I think I can talk the elves into letting me use the kitchen, or we can use the homemaking magic room, that's always empty." her head was going a mile a minute trying to find ways to pay Everett for his help.

 

Everett snorts, then snickers, as the girl scrambles to come up with some form of payment. "How do you even function," he teases, turning towards her. "That's in, payment in full, /up front/." The boy reaches a hand up to guess at Zaira's cheek and catches her temple --close enough-- grasping with both hands and angling her gaze upwards. Grinning, the boy tilts down and attempts to capture her in a kiss, his heart pounding in his ears; it had been far too long since he'd attempted it, and was bursting at the seams to get some already!

As soon as I saw this set I knew I had to try something like this, if time permits I'm gonna try to expand it and add a few things.

What a welcome sight are these crocuses in our little garden. Spring is on the way.

The man in the chair is Mr. Earl. Mr (Earl….Mr). Earl lives in the assisted living home next door to the shop, he has a memory disease that if you tell him something today he forgets so if you tell him again tomorrow it’s like new information to him….his brother used to come to the shop and pay me every week to cut his hair.

 

Then later Mr. Earl would come and ask me did his brother pay me so he can get a cut, I would always say yes sir your debt is already paid.Mr (paid….Mr). Earl’s brother died 5 years ago and he doesn’t remember, he still comes every week and always asks me is his debt paid….I ALWAYS STILL SAY YES SIR, YOUR DEBT IS PAID and cut his hair….i know Mr. Earl’s brother is in heaven looking down watching out for us THATS PAYMENT ENOUGH…some things are better than money….AMEN”

Here's a poor quality image from an impromptu rainy morning out to meet a friend from out of town. Earlier this year I shared this photo: flic.kr/p/2qLiTJi and now finally she is back operating in revenue service. I need to get out on a nice day but I don't hate the saturated rainy look to this scene, though the brush does annoy me.

 

Anyway Grafton and Upton Railroad train GU-1 led by GP35 3604 and a pair of MP15ACs has just departed southbound from North Grafton yard as comes off the short causeway over the marsh and Big Bummet Brook at about MP 1 as measured from the north end of the line at the junction with the Keolis Worcester Mainline, the former Boston and Albany.

 

Still dressed in the image of its former owner this locomotive was built in January 1965 for the Pennsylvania Railroad and was acquired by the Housatonic from Conrail around 1992 when the road expanded with the acquisition of the Danbury cluster from CR. The unit was sent here a couple years ago for contract repair work and underwent an extensive rebuild/upgrade including all new wiring and modular electrical systems.

 

For whatever reason after spending a substantial sum the HRRC ownership decided not to invest any more money and purchased newly rebuilt GP15-1s and GP39-2s instead. In exchange for outstanding payments due, the G&U was offered and accepted this unit in trade and now owns it.

Slovakia, Highland; former historical Hungary /Felvidék.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felvid%c3%a9k

Historic centre of the town with castle and churches

The first written reference to the town dates back to 1328, when it was granted royal town privileges by King Charles I of Hungary (I. Károly Róbert). The town's mint was already in existence at the time of the granting of royal privileges. Starting in 1335 the mint produced golden florins and later the famous "Kremnica (Körmöcbánya) ducats", which were used as an international means of payment as a result of their consistently high purity of gold. It was the most important mint, and later the only one, in the Kingdom of Hungary, in Czechoslovakia and nowadays in Slovakia; the prosperity brought to the town led to it being given the nickname "Golden Kremnica (Körmöcbánya)". Bánya=mine in Hungarian.

In agreement with all the previous thing, the place also is denominated the island of the flowers.

The tower bells were initially hung in the St. James´s Church tower. But when a new big Michael bell was acquired by the town authorities in 1604, it was said the bell made the whole tower quake when it rang.

They therefore decided to have a separate campanile built next to the church at municipality expenses in 1609. The municipality of Lipník started building with the support of the nobility. The Chronicle writes: "the Mayor and town council of Lipník anno domini 1609, on Friday after the commemoration of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. At some commandment of His Grace the Lord of Jiří Elder Bruntálský of Vrbno and on Helfenstein ​​with knowledge and will of all the municipality of Lipník they bought the above written house to construct the tower for the bells at this point for a sum of 390 R by Jan Šmic. He received an earnest payment from the Lords for a cash of 50 R. "

 

The house was promptly demolished and eight days after the purchase, foundations were laid for the new tower. The bell tower was completed by the winter – 12th November 1609. It was built by Italian master Jan Mario Vlach. The stone was brought here from Prusy and Podolí.

 

The bells of the St. James´ Church were transferred to the bell tower, and thus spared from a great calamity during a fire; the bell tower remained unaffected.

 

The campanile in Lipník nad Bečvou is the only one in Moravia which preserved its original appearance and which in addition differs from the other preserved bell towers by its size. Its ground plan is 10 x 10 and its height is 24 m. It has square windows in the first and second floor and is provided with a side-hung window on the third floor in the front facade, the remaining windows are set up with semi-circular vault. In 2003, the windows of this floor were fitted with wooden shutters. They better transmit the sound of the bells and are more suitable than the metal coverings used until now. The sound of bells was reflected and the vibrations damaged the bells. Above the top floor, bell decoration is concentrated in the form of uneven arcades and attic friezes. “Due to its noble architectural differentiation and integrity of its exterior, this tower has no equivalent rival among the Renaissance monuments in Moravia, except the gate in the Street of the Mother of God in Jihlava“ wrote in 1933 Dr. Karel Svoboda, the Heritage Office Commissioner from Brno, in the article Art in the history of Lipník.

Domenico di Bartolo (1400/1404 - 1445/1447) care of the pilgrims (1441) - Hall of pilgrims of Santa Maria della Scala in Siena

 

Pellegrinaio di Santa Maria della Scala

La grande corsia ospedaliera, nata come pellegrinaio maschile, viene costruita nella prima metà del Trecento. Il grandioso ciclo affrescato che decora le pareti e il soffitto è invece realizzato tra gli anni Trenta e Quaranta del Quattrocento, a celebrazione dell'ospedale, delle sue funzioni e del ruolo svolto.

Tra 1441 e 1443 la committenza ospedaliera affidò inoltre la decorazione delle pareti: Lorenzo di Pietro, Domenico di Bartolo e Priamo della Quercia furono impegnati, come documentano i libri di pagamento, nella celebrazione per immagini della storia e delle funzioni ospedaliere

 

Hall of pilgrims of Santa Maria della Scala

The great hospital ward, born as male "pellegrinaio", is built in the first half of the fourteenth century. The grandiose fresco cycle that decorates the walls and the ceiling is instead made between the thirties and forties of the fifteenth century, in celebration of the hospital, its functions and the role performed.

Between 1441 and 1443 the hospital commission also entrusted the decoration of the walls: Lorenzo di Pietro, Domenico di Bartolo and Priamo della Quercia were involved, as documented by the payment books, in the celebration through images of the history and functions of hospital

Masaccio (Tommaso di Ser Giovanni di Mòne di Andreuccio Cassài -Castel San Giovanni in Altura, December 21, 1401 - Rome, June 1428) - the payment of the tribute (1423 circa) - Brancacci Chapel - Santa Maria del Carmine, Florence

 

Nel 1268 un gruppo di frati giunti da Pisa fonda a Firenze la chiesa della beata Vergine del Carmelo. I lavori di costruzione vengono portati avanti con il contributo del Comune e delle più facoltose famiglie fiorentine e si protraggono anche oltre la data della consacrazione (1422), terminando soltanto nel 1475.

 

Nel 1423 il ricco mercante Felice Brancacci , di ritorno dall’Egitto, commissiona l’esecuzione degli affreschi. Alle Storie di San Pietro, santo a cui era in origine intitolata la cappella, lavorano insieme Masolino e Masaccio; a causa della partenza del primo per

l’Ungheria e del secondo per Roma, nel 1427 gli affreschi rimangono però incompiuti.

In seguito all’esilio del Brancacci (1436), caduto in disgrazia per le sue simpatie antimedicee, i frati del convento fanno cancellare i ritratti di tutti i personaggi legati alla sua famiglia e nel 1460 intitolano la cappella alla Madonna del Popolo, inserendovi la venerata tavola duecentesca.

Soltanto negli anni 1481-1483 Filippino Lippi effettuerà il ripristino e il completamento delle scene mancanti. I dipinti rischiano più volte di andare perduti: nel 1680 la Granduchessa Vittoria della Rovere si oppone al proposito del marchese Ferroni di trasformare la cappella in stile barocco, ma alla metà del Settecento vengono effettuati interventi di ammodernamento che distruggono le pitture della volta e delle lunette. Scampata all’incendio che nel 1771 devasta l’interno della chiesa, la cappella è acquistata nel 1780 dai Riccardi, che rinnovano altare e pavimento. Gli affreschi, trascurati per tutto l’Ottocento, vengono sottoposti a spolveratura nel 1904; l’intervento di restauro effettuato negli anni Ottanta del Novecento ha finalmente permesso di recuperare la loro limpida e brillante cromia.

 

In 1268 a group of friars from Pisa founded the church of the Blessed Virgin of Carmel in Florence. The construction works were carried out with the contribution of the Municipality and of the wealthiest Florentine families and went on even beyond the date of the consecration (1422), ending only in 1475.

 

In 1423 the rich merchant Felice Brancacci, returning from Egypt, commissioned the execution of the frescoes. Masolino and Masaccio worked together on the Stories of Saint Peter, the saint to whom the chapel was originally dedicated.

because of the departure of the first for Hungary and of the second for Rome, in 1427 the frescoes remained unfinished.

Following the exile of Brancacci (1436), who had fallen into disgrace because of his anti-Medicean sympathies, the friars of the convent had the portraits of all the personages linked to his family erased and in 1460 they entitled the chapel to the Madonna del Popolo, inserting in it the venerated 13th-century panel.

It was only in the years 1481-1483 that Filippino Lippi carried out the restoration and completion of the missing scenes. The paintings were in danger of being lost several times: in 1680 the Grand Duchess Vittoria della Rovere opposed the intention of the Marquis Ferroni to transform the chapel in Baroque style, but in the middle of the eighteenth century are made modernization interventions that destroy the paintings of the vault and of the lunettes. Escaped the fire that devastated the interior of the church in 1771. of the church, the chapel was purchased in 1780 by the Riccardi, who renovated the altar and the floor. The frescoes, neglected throughout the nineteenth century, were subjected to dusting in 1904. 1904; the restoration work carried out in the 1980s restoration carried out in the eighties of the twentieth century has finally allowed to recover their their clear and bright colors.

Since Flickr has changed payment methods, there is now way for me to renew my pro subscription at the moment. I have no credit card and not the right debet card. Paypal is not possible anymore. Google Pay doesn't work for a 2 year subscription. I can't post new photos because of this.

It is very inconvenient and not nice at all after being a member for so long.

If you can help me with this, please message me (I do get 30% discount for a 2-year membership).

The present-day structure was mainly built in the 12th century. Since there are no quarries in the area, the stone for the construction had to be purchased from an abbey in Peterborough and delivered by boat to Ely. The payment terms were 8,000 eels a year - because the Peterborough monks liked to eat them and before the fens were drained, catching eels was a major industry in Ely and the source of the town name which means Isle of Eels.

 

The cathedral is known locally as "the ship of the Fens", because of its prominent position above the surrounding flat landscape.
