Our third and final stop on the Golden Circle Tour ... Geysir.
From Wikipedia -
Strokkur (Icelandic for "churn") is a fountain geyser located in a geothermal area beside the Hvítá River in Iceland in the southwest part of the country, east of Reykjavík. It is one of Iceland's most famous geysers, erupting once every 6-10 minutes. Its usual height is 15-20 metres, although it can sometimes erupt up to 40 metres high.
Strokkur belongs to the Haukadalur valley area, where various other geothermal features such as mud pools, fumaroles and other geysers are located around it, including the famous Geysir geyser.
Strokkur was first mentioned in 1789, after an earthquake helped to unblock the conduit of the geyser. Its activity fluctuated throughout the 19th century; in 1815 its height was estimated to have been as much as 60 metres. It continued to erupt until the turn of the 20th century, until another earthquake blocked the conduit again. In 1963, upon the advice of the Geysir Committee, locals cleaned out the blocked conduit through the bottom of the basin, and the geyser has been regularly erupting ever since.

Third Thursday: That's So '90s! on August 17, 2017 at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, MO. Photographer / Lauren Frisch Pusateri
Built in 1936-1937, this Early Modern church was designed by Paul Schweiker for the congregation of the Third Unitarian Church of Chicago, founded in 1868, which was previously located in East Garfield Park. The building was expanded in 1956 with an addition to the north of the original building, designed by William B. Fyfe. The building is clad in Chicago common brick with the original wing having a low-pitch gabled roof, large bays featuring windows with wooden mullions and wooden spandrel panels, and a two-story wing on the south side of the original building, and a wing added in 1956, which features a sawtooth front facade, brick pilasters at the entrance doors, a thin canopy at the entrance, and ribbon windows on the rear facade. Inside, the sanctuary, which occupies part of the original building and the second story of the west side of the 1956 addition, features exposed brick walls, decorative mosaics, multi-colored abstract stained glass windows, wooden paneling, and a wooden balcony within the original building. The building was designated a Chicago Landmark in 2008. Today, the building remains in active use as the Third Unitarian Church of Chicago, serving a diverse congregation from the surrounding neighborhoods and adjacent suburbs.

We lost the bid to play for the championship by 2 points, but we won the second game (by almost 30) to take 3rd place.
I'm so proud of that boy right there, my little basketball star.
