Small Business Saturday, Shopping Small and supporting Local in Baker City, Oregon

 

One of the best ways to experience a community is by visiting the locally owned independent businesses that reflect the unique and local character of the community. This weekend was a great start to what is definitely a different Christmas season. With lots of COVID precautions in place it was great to see so many folks out spreading holiday cheer and supporting local this weekend for black Friday and Small Business Saturday in Downtown Baker City

 

The small towns of Baker County offer a cornucopia of local and independent small businesses, many featuring locally crafted products that are made in, and in some cases can only be found in Baker County.

 

Baker City's historic downtown is one of the largest intact turn of the 20th century historic districts in the American West with over 100 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. today the downtown has been lovingly restored and the historic district is now a thriving downtown home to numerous art galleries, restaurants, micro breweries and local independently owned shops, making it the perfect destination for celebrating the holidays and shopping small unique businesses.

In dit aangeharkte landschap is deze dode boom toch wel de broodnodige uitzondering.

 

In juli 2022 stond deze boom er ook niet florissant voor, en de passerende fietser was het nogal oneens met de camera-auto…

In this meticulously manicured landscape, this dead tree is certainly a much-needed exception.

 

In July 2022, this tree wasn’t looking too good either, and the passing cyclist didnot agree with the camera car at all...

"GOP, Generation Of Peace, 1972. Thank you for your support."

 

A block of political campaign stamps given to supporters and potential donors by Richard Nixon during his run for a second term as U.S. president in 1972. "GOP" refers here to "Generation of Peace," a phrase that Nixon used in speeches about ending American involvement in the Vietnam War, but it also means "Grand Old Party," which, of course, is another name for the Republican Party.

Honfleur is a commune in the Calvados department in Normandy en.normandie-tourisme.fr/normandy-tourism-109-2.html in northwestern France. It is located on the southern bank of the estuary of the Seine across from le Havre and very close to the exit of the Pont de Normandie. Its inhabitants are called Honfleurais. It is especially known for its old, beautiful picturesque port, characterized by its houses with slate-covered frontages, painted many times by artists, including in particular Gustave Courbet, Eugène Boudin, Claude Monet and Johan Jongkind, forming the école de Honfleur (Honfleur school) which contributed to the appearance of the Impressionist movement. The Sainte-Catherine church, which has a bell tower separate from the principal building, is the largest church made out of wood in France. The first written record of Honfleur is a reference by Richard III, Duke of Normandy, in 1027. By the middle of the 12th century, the city represented a significant transit point for goods from Rouen to England. Located on the estuary of one of the principal rivers of France with a safe harbour and relatively rich hinterland, Honfleur profited from its strategic position from the start of the Hundred Years' War. The town's defences were strengthened by Charles V in order to protect the estuary of the Seine from attacks from the English. This was supported by the nearby port of Harfleur. However, Honfleur was taken and occupied by the English in 1357 and from 1419 to 1450. When under French control, raiding parties often set out from the port to ransack the English coasts, including partially destroying the town of Sandwich, in Kent, England, in the 1450s. At the end of the Hundred Years' War, Honfleur benefited from the boom in maritime trade until the end of the 18th century. Trade was disturbed during the wars of religion in the 16th century. The port saw the departure of a number of explorers, in particular in 1503 of Binot Paulmierde Gonneville to the coasts of Brazil. In 1506, local man Jean Denis departed for Newfoundland island and the mouth of the Saint Lawrence. An expedition in 1608, organised by Samuel de Champlain, founded the city of Quebec in modern day Canada. After 1608, Honfleur thrived on trade with Canada, the West Indies, the African coasts and the Azores. As a result, the town became one of the five principal ports for the slave trade in France. During this time the rapid growth of the town saw the demolition of its fortifications on the orders of Colbert. The wars of the French revolution and the First Empire, and in particular the continental blockade, caused the ruin of Honfleur. It only partially recovered during the 19th century with the trading of wood from northern Europe. Trade was however limited by the silting up of the entrance to the port and development of the modern port at Le Havre. The port however still functions today. On August 25, 1944, Honfleur was liberated together by the British army - 19th Platoon of the 12th Devon's, 6th Air Landing Brigade, the Belgian army (Brigade Piron) on 25 August 1944.[1] and the Canadian army without any combat. en.normandie-tourisme.fr/articles/honfleur-278-2.html

The Novusian army has once again clashed with the Krocusians in another frightful contest, this time at a stagnate runoff, named Maley's creek. The 15-hour battle, between the two armies, resulted in a massive Krocusian victory, sending the Novusian army, on the retreat, back to their main force, located at the Dalton plains.

 

Here we go again!

This is round one of the contest between me, Andrew and Miller. My contest with Anton has ended, and i'm immediately starting a new one. guess i haven't learned my lesson. :P

NOTE: YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO VOTE FOR THIS COMPLETION: VOTING WILL BE AT THE END OF THE FIVE ROUNDS WE ARE HAVING: The theme for this build was castle, which is sad, because I love castle, but this build really kinda sucks, and i feel like i kinda rushed it. :/ ( which i did ) might even redo it. :(

Anyway, sorry for the crappy build and description,there was a huge rush to get this uploaded. thanks for your support! :)

God bless guys! :)

Been longing to try the Auburn for a while so when I spotted this one I had a tingle and snapped it up.

Downtown Juneau in heavy rain.

Here's something from the way back machine!

 

I've been thinking about Comus a bit since ending up there a few days ago looking for trains on UP's Spine Line. I remembered there was an effort to build an ethanol plant near the junction there - Progressive Rail pushed hard for it, and it could have generated traffic for UP, IC&E, or CP, all of whom would have had access there. Through pure dumb luck, I happened to be out on December 29, 2006 - must have been home from college on winter break - and caught PGR dropping this rolling billboard on a siding right next to Highway 3 between Malt-O-Meal and Kwik Trip.

 

I need to go back and do some digging on what exactly killed the project near Comus, though from reading some of my captions from that time, it looks like it was local opposition (especially with respect to water consumption) and the global economy / gas prices crashing soon thereafter - I even see a mention of other ethanol plants that were under construction at the time getting shut down... so, perhaps PGR dodged a bullet in the end. They (Progressive Rail) threatened to develop a commercial site that couldn't be slowed by regulatory action in lieu of ethanol, should the plans be halted, but I imagine the economy at the time prevented that from happening... along with their large commercial development in Randolph.

 

In any event, enjoy this shot from a dozen years ago, when MN&S-esque SD39 and SW1500's roamed the rails in Northfield as God intended.
