Date of film: October 1965
Physical descrip: b&w; sound; original length: 13.20
Local call number:</ V-18 BA048; S.828
General note: The script starts by asking, "What is land?" A long philosophical answer is given over scenes of life in Putnam County. The film shows farming, cattle, rodeo, sailing and bass fishing, including underwater photography. Viewers also see gladiolus farms, residences in Palatka, a utility plant, the Hudson Pulp and Paper Corp., and furniture manufacturing. The film shows schools, public facilities and President Lyndon B. Johnson at the ground breaking of the Cross Florida Barge Canal. There are good shots of a huge "walking" drag line. Produced by Guided Tours; sponsored by Putnam County Board of County Commissioners.

Kent Falls State Park, Kent, Connecticut, USA
Last winter was cold, snowy and stubbornly persistent in Connecticut. Case in point: I took this photograph of Kent Falls on April 16, nearly a month into springtime!
Mother Nature has been rather forgiving so far this season, but then again, it's not actually winter just yet. Who knows what's in store for the next three or four months?

A cold frosty start with some fog patches. It will soon turn windy with gales along coasts and high ground. Rain spreading eastwards, reaching all parts by lunchtime will be persistent for many.
Goodbye January :)
Persistent fog is starting to lose its battle with rising pleasant temperatures as CSX westbound empty ethanol train K677 (Baltimore - Chicago/CN) digs into the hill at Philson as it works its way up Sand Patch in its effort to conquer the Alleghenies. Despite shooting directly into the sun here, I will make do with any train I can given traffic levels can be somewhat sporadic on Sand Patch. With intel that said preferred light eastbounds were few and far between, I did what I could with K677.

Persistent pain experienced when we are young and active is unlikely to be accepted as something which is ‘normal’. Indeed, we are likely to do everything we can to ensure we obtain the best available help and find the treatment most effective to manage the pain.
Such attitudes and beliefs should not change with older age. Yet, pain in older people is highly prevalent and widely accepted as something to be expected and regarded as ‘normal’ in later life. Hence, suffering associated with persistent pain in older people often occurs without the appropriate assessment and treatment.
