I don't remember photographing this horse! Someone remembered, for me, thank goodness! This is Crusher, a National Showhorse Gelding. He was quite the gentleman, and waited for me to approach him, vs. the others, who were a bit naughty! I suppose I didn't recall him because he was neither elegant, like the Saddlebred mare, nor rich in quality, like the fleeting Chestnut Arab mare...but, with horses, there is always more to the story, so I think I will pay more attention to Crusher when I return.
If I remember right this was the Savanna to Eola Train that ran on the BNSF's Aurora Sub. The train on this day was led by an H1 Dash 9 as it passes under the CB&Q signal bridge while the CNW bridge stands on the right of the frame. Rochelle IL 3/18/11

1891 Census of England and Wales
The 7 year old George Morley, born Lakenheath, Suffolk, was recorded living at a dwelling on Anchor Lane, Lakenheath. This was the household of his parents, Edward, (aged 39, a General Labourer, born Lakenheath) and Rebecca, (aged 38, Born Lakenheath). As well as George their other children living with them are:-
William…..aged 13….born Lakenheath….Agricultural Labourer
Ernest…….aged 9……born Lakenheath
Elizabeth…aged 4……born Lakenheath
“Voilet”….aged 2…….born Lakenheath
1901 Census of England and Wales
The Morley family were still living on Anchor Lane. Along with parents Edward, (48) and Rebecca, (46), children still single and living at home are William, (23, Ordinary Agricultural Labourer), Ernest E, (19, Ordinary Agricultural Labourer), George, (17, Ordinary Agricultural Labourer), Elizabeth, (14), Violet, (12), Lily, (9), Charles, (6) and Alice, (4) – all born Lakenheath.
His future wife, the 12 year old Mary Mole, born Croxton, Norfolk, was recorded living at a dwelling on Watton Road, Croxton, Norfolk. This was the household of her uncle and aunt, Stephen Linge (44, Gamekeeper, born Thetford) and Emily Linge, (44, born Croxton). As well as a 1 year old son of their own, also in the household is Stephens’ step-son Albert Mole, (aged 18, an Agricultural Labourer, born Croxton). Mary however is shown as a niece of the couple.
1908 – Marriage
The marriage of a George Morley to a Mary Ann Mole was recorded in the Thetford District of Norfolk in the April to June quarter, (Q2), of 1908.
1911 Census of England and Wales
The 27 year old George Morley, a Fruit Farm Labourer, was recorded as the married head of the household at Cemetey Road, Lakenheath, (the census enumerator has shown the address as Mill Road, Lakenheath, although that may be the address the form was originally sent to). He lives there with his wife of 2 years, Mary Ann, (aged 22, born Croxton, Suffolk). So far the couple have had just the one child, and as yet unnamed daughter who was then just a month old.
His widowed mother, the 57 year old Rebecca, was recorded as the head of the household at Anchor Lane. Although this was the first census in England and Wales intended to be completed by the householder, in this case someone else has completed it on her behalf as the declaration has been signed with an “X” (her mark). Rebecca supports herself by Charing. Still single and living with her are her children Charles, (16, Farm Labourer) and Alice, (14, help on farm).
Until September 1911 the quarterly index published by the General Registrars Office did not show information about the mothers maiden name. A check of the General Registrars Office Index of Birth for England and Wales 1911 – 1983 shows three possible additional children of George and Mary, all recorded in the Mildenhall District, all with mothers maiden name Mole. (Note with the daughter on the 1911 that would give the four children referenced in the original caption to the photograph.)

On the day
31st July 1917 - Day 1
The Battle of Passchendaele
18th Division
53 Bde
53 Bde’s task was to leapfrog 30th Div once Glencorse Wood had been taken.
8th Bn, Suffolk Regt arrived in Jackdaw Trench at 8.10am to find Glencorse Wood still in enemy hands despite reports to the contrary. They dug in near Clapham Junction. Meanwhile 6th Bn, Berkshire Regt bogged down on the Menin Road also under fire from Glencorse Wood. With the help of 79 Coy, RE they destroyed some pill boxes between road and wood. Five tanks sent to assist bogged down in mud and were destroyed by shell-fire. By 10am they had dug in at the cross roads north west of Glencorse Wood.

Page 239 - 241 “The History of the Suffolk Regiment 1914-1927” by Lieutenant-Colonel C.C.R.Murphy
The battles of Ypres of 1917 began on the last day of July, the main blow being delivered by four Army Corps of the Vth Army, under General Sir Hubert Gough, attacking on a front of nearly eight miles. The front allotted to the IInd Corps (Lieut.-General Sir Claude Jacob) to which the 8th Battalion, belonged, extended from the Menin road to the Zillebeke-Zandvoorde road. This difficult stretch of country, especially the part when the Menin road crosses the ridge, was perhaps on the whole the scene of the most desperate fighting in the opening battle, although the depth of the British advance was greatest in the direction of Langemarck.
The intention was that as soon as the 30th Division had gained the Black Line, the 18th Division who were in support should go through them and carry on. The 53rd Brigade (Brig.-General H.W. Higginson) were then to attack the Green Line, and, if the situation developed favourably, the Red Line also. The 8th Battalion reached its assembly positions about 2 a.m. on July 31st, and by zero hour (3.50 a.m.) had established its headquarters at Wellington Crescent. During the latter stages of this move, enemy shells set fire to some dumps and a tank, lighting up the ground with remarkable effect. As “C” Company was passing through Zillebeke a shell burst amongst them, killing and wounding several of the men.
The troops of the attacking division, which the 53rd Brigade were to leapfrog when the first objective was taken, moved forward between the 8th and 24th Division. The 8th Suffolks and 6th Royal Berkshire Regiments, ready and expectant, waited for the front-line reports that would tell them the way was clear for their advance. “By a tragic mistake the 30th Divisional infantry wheeled to their left and assaulted Chateau wood instead of Glencorse wood. The misleading information that Glencorse wood was in our hands caused the 53rd Brigade to plunge into a fatal gap. One of the Suffolks’ scouts met, near the Menin road, an officer of the 17th Manchesters who reported that Glencorse wood had been captured. Contradiction came from Lieut. R.C. Bolingbroke who, before being wounded, penetrated as far as the line of the first objective. Bolingbroke reported that the enemy was still holding ground west of Glencorse wood.” (Source cited “History of the 18th Division” (Blackwood)).
Early in the morning Lieut. Bolingbroke went forward with the battalion scouts to clear Sanctuary wood and place signposts to guide the companies. They came under fire from a corner of the wood, Cpl. Fletcher being twice wounded. This was the work of a daring sniper, who did much damage before he was killed. Soon after 6 a.m. Lieut. Bolingbroke sent back a message to say 30th Division were on the north side of the Menin road, an in Chateau wood.
As the troops advanced a barrage was encountered in the splintered remains of Sanctuary wood, on the further edge of which they came under a destructive machine-gun and rifle fire. A platoon of “B” Company, under Lieut. Chibnall, was the first to get up to Lieut. Bolingbroke. These two officers decided to attack the second line (Surbiton Villa) with such troops as they could collect, and without waiting for support. The line was taken, Lieut. Chibnall and Sgt. J. Mason, M.M., being killed, and Lieut. Bolingbroke wounded, at the head of the platoon. In the course of the severe fighting in the vicinity of Surbiton Villa, Pte. F.J. Read with a small party of “A” Company (Major H.A. Angier, M.C.) rushed a German machine-gun, killing the whole team.
The battalion got on to the Menin road near Clapham Junction and advanced several hundred yards beyond it, where they were checked and forced to take up a line of shell-holes. The attack practically finished here, as by this time the enemy were in great strength round Glencorse wood. While Major Fache was crawling up the Menin road with a runner, a cock pheasant alighted about fifty yards ahead of them, though shells were dropping everywhere. The runner shot the bird, carrying it out of action at the end of his rifle with great pride. It was possibly not the first time he had killed game without a licence.
By this time all our tanks had been put out of action. The battalion having advanced altogether nearly a mile and made a hard but availing fight to get still further, now dug themselves in. Thus ended, as far as the 8th Battalion was concerned, the battle of Pilckem Ridge, in which they sustained 177 casualties including the following officers:-
Killed: Lieut. R.S. Chibnall; 2nd Lieuts J.D. Wheeler and A.C. Savage.
Wounded: Captain G.L. Crandon, M.C.; Lieut. R.C. Bolingbroke, M.C., D.C.M.; and 2nd Lieuts W. Brown and L.C. Rae, the last named remaining at duty.

BEDFORD HOUSE CEMETERY
Location Information
Bedford House Cemetery is located 2.5 Km south of Ieper town centre. The cemetery lies on the Rijselseweg (N336), the road connecting Ieper to Armentieres.
Historical Information
Zillebeke village and most of the commune were in the hands of Commonwealth forces for the greater part of the First World War, but the number of cemeteries in the neighbourhood bears witness to the fierce fighting in the vicinity from 1914 to 1918.
Bedford House, sometimes known as Woodcote House, were the names given by the Army to the Chateau Rosendal, a country house in a small wooded park with moats. Although it never fell into German hands, the house and the trees were gradually destroyed by shell fire. It was used by field ambulances and as the headquarters of brigades and other fighting units, and charcoal pits were dug there from October 1917.
In time, the property became largely covered by small cemeteries; five enclosures existed at the date of the Armistice, but the graves from No.1 were then removed to White House Cemetery, St. Jean, and those from No.5 to Aeroplane Cemetery, Ypres.
ENCLOSURE No.2 was begun in December 1915, and used until October 1918. After the Armistice, 437 graves were added, all but four of which came from the Ecole de Bienfaisance and Asylum British Cemeteries, both at Ypres.
In all, 5,139 Commonwealth servicemen of the First World War are buried or commemorated in the enclosures of Bedford House Cemetery. 3,011 of the burials are unidentified but special memorials commemorate a number of casualties known or believed to be buried among them. Other special memorials name casualties buried in other cemeteries whose graves could not be found on concentration. Second World War burials number 69 (3 of which are unidentified). There are 2 Germans buried here.

Who remembers this thing? Ha! You're old! :P
I went to a few yard sales, hoping to get Legos or something, but ended up with this!
Magnavox Odyssey 2, with 12 games. $20 for the whole lot. He said it was working the last time he tried it. Which was in the 70's XD but he says he thinks it was working within a year, so I have good expectations. At least the games are cool and in great condition.
I've spent the most of the last 2 hours cleaning it up. It looks a lot better now, but there is still much to be done!
I also scored a sweet 9-drawer set for $15, and an original gameboy. My dad says my haggling skills need to be worked on, and I agree in retrospect, but I'm happy :D
Remember remember the fifth of November
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
I see no reason why gunpowder, treason
Should ever be forgot...
- On the 5th November 1605, a group of Catholic conspirators, led by Guy Fawkes, attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament in London, when the Protestant King James I (James VI of Scotland) was within its walls. Guy Fawkes was caught in the cellars of the Houses of Parliament with several dozen barrels of gunpowder. Guy Fawkes was subsequently tried as a traitor with his co-conspirators for plotting against the government, and was sentenced to be hung drawn and quartered.

Taylor Dayne, American freestyle music, and smooth jazz artist from New York City, is continuing to love her Australian tour and the many fans who still remember her.
The Diva who enjoyed mainstream popularity in the 1980s is wowing Aussie audiences and showing that she's still got it.
Without her there may never have never been an Anastacia. Almost 25 years ago, the chart success of American dance-pop singer Taylor Dayne paved a golden road for the mighty-voiced white female soul-pop singers who came after her.
Tonight for Dayne it was Selina's at the famous Coogee Bay Hotel in Sydney's east.
The sensational Dayne sounded fresh and looked great in a blue, green, silver and orange sequin leotard. It was obvious she appreciated the audience and did a lot of eye contact and finger pointing at both fans and the lucky photographers on hand.
Dayne performed hits, including Tell It to My Heart, With Every Beat of My Heart, Prove Your Love, I’ll Be Your Shelter and Don’t Rush Me.
I loved the way she worked the stool, complete with cross over legs, working the audience, and of course the support dancers followed her lead. Oh, she still oozes sexiness also.
“You can shoot for the stars - and I think everybody should - but I remember having some very frustrating moments thinking ‘God, is it ever going to happen?’ ” she said.
“But from the minute Tell It to My Heart broke in Europe as a single - I remember I showed up at one store and there were 1000 kids dressed like me - I never looked back.”
Ms Dayne had said her Australian fans would not be disappointed when they came to see her, and she was speaking the truth.
"I have been performing for 23 years and I promise I will not come out looking like Taylor Dayne from 1988, but I will take my fans on a journey," she said. "It’s a soundtrack to their lives as much as mine."
The 49-year-old singer and songwriter lives in Los Angeles where she raises her two children, eight-year-old twins Astaria and Levi whom she had via a surrogate and without a partner.
"I wouldn't have done it any other way, which is the story of my career," Dayne says. "No one has ever handed me anything. If you have a goal and a dream, I don't think anyone can stop you. Kids and a career have both been the most difficult and satisfying things in my life."
Tickets to some of her Australian shows can be purchased for as low at $50, so snap them up. If you're into music with heart and love Taylor Dayne is for you.
The Music News Australia network would like to publicly thank Taylor for putting on such a great show, looking our camera lots, and also the great folks at Lionel Midford Publicity for helping make it all possible.
Support was Andrew Lawson from The X-Factor fame. Mr Lawson continues to improve, building upon his foundation and fame from X-Factor. Mr Lawson was appreciative of the fans and did a good job of connecting with both them and the press that was present. We think his best days are still ahead of him, but it was a thumbs up.
All up, a great night of entertainment.

Every year on 25 April we hold dawn services in the cities and small towns to commemorate ANZAC Day in honour of Australian and New Zealand soldiers who lost their lives in campaigns overseas. The services this year were cancelled because of lockdown but many of us stood silently at our doors at 6am this morning to remember in a different way. "... At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them."
