when you fall, remember me when you crash.
Poor don got in another car accident. People just want to run into his car, for some reason. That's why we had to go out.

7 Days of Shooting/Week #18 - Remember When/Go For Bokeh Tuesday
*I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space
And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much
Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
probably
And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control
Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me
My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably
Uh, uh

Dover is blessed with a long and colourful history, and in ancient times the centre of the town was filled with churches. There are still a few, but in the main street, almost forgotten about, is St Mary. An ancient tower with a small spire, blocked up Norman arches, it is tucked between shops and footpaths. Most people walk past without a second glance, but inside, it is clearly a heavily Victorianised church, but with Norman roots, and bedecked with flags, memorials and windows depicting and remembering the history f the town.
The window in memorial to the Herald of Free Enterprise can be found here. The tragedy affected many families in the town. Opposite is another fine window in memorial to the pilots who ditched in the Channel during the war.
Many of the memorials were out of reach of my camera, but I snapped what I could.

In the heart of the town with a prominent twelfth-century tower. From the outside it is obvious that much work was carried out in the nineteenth century. The church has major connections with the Lord Wardens of the Cinque Ports and is much used for ceremonial services. The western bays of the nave with their low semi-circular arches are contemporary with the tower, while the pointed arches to the east are entirely nineteenth century. The scale and choice of stone is entirely wrong, although the carving is very well done. However the east end, with its tall narrow lancet windows, is not so successful. The Royal Arms, of the reign of William and Mary, are of carved and painted wood, with a French motto - Jay Maintendray - instead of the more usual Dieu et Mon Droit. The church was badly damaged in the Second World War, but one of the survivors was the typical Norman font of square Purbeck marble construction. One of the more recent additions to the church is the Herald of Free Enterprise memorial window of 1989 designed by Frederick Cole

It is possible that the original church of St Mary’s was Saxon in origin, although there is little concrete evidence to this effect. What is certain is that the church was built on the site of a Roman structure. The tower and western part of the nave date from the 11th century. This Norman church was built between 1066, when Saxon Dover was destroyed by the Norman invaders, and 1086, when the Domesday Book lists three churches in Dover. Although not named it has been assumed that the three churches were St Mary’s, St James’ and St Peter’s.
The church is mentioned in a list of possessions of Dover Priory in 1180. In 1230 St Mary’s passed into the control of the Maison Dieu, the Master providing priests for the church until the Dissolution in 1537, when the church was closed. The townspeople petitioned Henry VIII to let them have St Mary’s as a parish church, and this was granted in 1544.
In 1581 the Mayor and Corporation moved their official place of worship from St Peter’s Church, which had fallen into disrepair, to St Mary’s. Since then the church has been associated with civic bodies, the Mayor and Corporation, the Cinque Ports Pilots of Trinity House, and the Dover Harbour Board, all have official seats in the church.
The Mayors of Dover and Members of Parliament for Dover were elected in the church from 1581 until 1826. A barrier was placed down the centre of the building to keep the rival factions apart, and often there was bloodshed and the church desecrated and made unfit for public worship.
St Mary’s present form dates from the controversial restoration carried out in 1843 by the then Vicar, Canon John Puckle. It was less restoration and more complete rebuilding. The church was enlarged, the south aisle extended to balance the north aisle, and the roof raised and clerestory windows added. During the rebuilding, original Norman piers and arches were taken down, the stones numbered and then re-erected in their new position. Only the tower escaped relatively untouched. So the church as it is seen today is mainly a Victorian construction.
St Mary’s is still very much the town’s parish church. Many of the stained glass windows, put in to replace those destroyed in World War 2, commemorate the various historic associations between the church and town.
" ... the same as a spectacular Vogue magazine, remember that no matter how close you follow the jumps: Continued on page whatever. No matter how careful you are, there's going to be the sense you missed something, the collapsed feeling under your skin that you didn't experience it all. There's that fallen heart feeling that you rushed right through the moments where you should've been paying attention. Well, get used to that feeling. That's how your whole life will feel some day. This is all practice. None of this matters. We're just warming up.”
[Chuck Palahniuk]
Remember...
Why we have what we have...
What it cost others to give them to us...
What it costs others so we may keep them...
What it would cost to lose them....

A July 4th family portrait to remember my brother Steve who we lost on July 4th 1980. Every July 4th since then we've made it a point to be together as a family to remember the joy Steve added to our family.
This year we gathered at my sister Marcia's house in Ames. My sister Barb and her husband Jerry from Burnsville, MN are pictured in the back row. My sister Chris and her husband Craig tried their best to make it to Ames this year but just weren't able to pull it off with all the things they are juggling right now.
On a few of these July 4th rememberance get-together's we've encorporated a family bike ride. Jerry (upper right) had these t-shirts printed up. We didn't have a bike ride this year but still wore the t-shirts. It was chilly and rainy in Ames anyway.
My memory of Steve that I'd like to share this year is when he bought a nice 35mm film camara and brought it to a family gathering and took a family portrait. I think it was around 1978 or '79. He arranged us in our livingroom in our house in Sutherland, Iowa in the same manner that we were posed many years earlier for a family portrait taken by a professional. I was just a baby at the time of the original portrait and we were all adults at the time of Steve's re-creation so it was a fun shoot. I even sat in mom's lap just like the original. Steve was able to get himself in the photo by using a time delay to trigger the camera. I used a remote for this photo.
Twenty nine years ago our family experienced a tragic loss but we continue to take family portraits.

A fine model of Halifax Corporation Daimler bus - DCP 851 on the 57 Holywell Green route. Built in the mid-1950s.
Having travelled to work and back every day by bus during the 1960s I am sure I must have used this one at some time! They were the last of the back-door type used by the Corporation. I bought this lovely detailed model in Melton Mowbray recently for just £3.
In 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed a proclamation which designated May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date falls as Police Week. The Virginia Beach Fraternal Order of Police hosts this annual memorial service as a tribute to all local law enforcement officers that have died in the line of duty in service to the City of Virginia Beach.
Reminder: Flags should be flown at half-staff on May 15th
This tribute to American law enforcement officers is part of the historic crime bill that President Bill Clinton signed into law in 1994. At the request of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, Public Law 103-322 designates Peace Officers Memorial Day as one of only two days each year during which government agencies, businesses and residents are to fly their U.S. flags at half-staff.
“Just as we honor those who died in military service each Memorial Day, our nation pauses each May 15th to show its appreciation for the more than 20,000 men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice in protecting our communities and safeguarding our democracy here at home,” said Craig W. Floyd, Memorial Fund Chairman and CEO. “Lowering flags to half-staff on Peace Officers Memorial Day is also a way to remember the family members, friends and colleagues these brave American heroes left behind.”

OMG he sooooo big! Remember that little Toller pup photo I posted back in November? Here he is again at 5 months.
Monday I got a call from Christopher's breeder, she wanted to know if I could watch this little guy for while and possibly start showing him for her, I'm allowed to keep him if I want but for now I agreed to watch over him. So I picked up Chris today and I already find myself falling in love... He is a doll, following me around the house, sleeping at my feet when I'm at the computer, and sucking up to Eve. Hina thinks he is just too cool!

Do you guys remember this little pukifee icis? I used to own her but I sold her in January 2014 to a really nice friend who fell head over heels for her. The butterfly girl is named Tuva-Li and she's been very well taken care of, but as with loved belongings she's been so loved that her face-up started to crumble. So she sent her to me to redo it ^w^
I actually miss having an icis, she and a white skin bonnie is next on my wishlist!
Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.
