The third year Lollapalooza was held in Washington, it was near George, Washington -- out in the desert. With heat reaching 90 degrees Fahrenheit, the staff used fire hoses to cool the crowd.
Third time lucky. An iconic location I was back again for my third attempt to capture an image that satisfied me. The location a 20 minutes drive from my sons house in Chapel where we where staying on grandchild minding duties. This was our first morning and looking at the week ahead the best chance of getting some sort of atmosphere. I’d calculated if I got up a 4am 90 minutes later I should be at the top of Chrome hill, at 5:31am I took my first photo from the top. I’d picked right we had mist, they’d be no chance of this repeated in the week ahead as wind was forecast, if anything I had to much mist. I started from the top and made my way down picking of compositions as I travelled. With a composition chosen I would wait as the scene would change from minute to minute as the mist rolled through the valley, now you see it, now you don’t. Slowly I picked of my photographs and decided to climb the next hill, then disaster. Nearing the tree in this image I slipped on wet grass, I was careless, carrying my camera on the tripod I fell then rolled into some nettles, I yelp. My first thought was the camera OK, I’d fallen awkwardly to protect the camera, hence the roll into nettles, then I thought good it’s my left leg I can still drive the car. I tried to stand fearing I’d broken the ankle, slowly I put some weight on it and wiggled my toes and decided it was only a sprain. I hobbled through the gate by the tree only to see the sun make it’s first show some 45 minutes after sunrise. I took a quick photo then the photographer took over, I needed to get back up the hill for the composition I wanted, the photo you see now. All that was left to do now was a slow hobble 1.5 miles to the car.
I don't know exactly the name of the flower but it looks really fascinating in the eyes so I took a shot of it and this what it turned out to be.

my friend Kilnders Rawl E. once told me that if you see two places at the same time you are actually seeing a third place.
The Gothic Duomo in Florence is the third-largest church in the world. Much of it the original from the 13th and 14th centuries but the facade is late 19th-century neo-Gothic. The Cupola by Brunelleschi is still the largest brick dome in the world and was the largest dome in the world from its completion in 1436 until 1871.
The Duomo complex in the heart of Florence includes the Gothic cathedral (duomo), the Romanesque baptistery (battistero), the beautiful bell tower (campanile) designed by Giotto, and the magnificent dome (cupola) by Brunelleschi. Many of the original artworks from these sites are now inside the cathedral museum (Museo dell’Opera del Duomo di Firenze).
Historic Richmondtown, Staten Island, New York City, New York, United States
Richmondtown, in which this courthouse is located, is an unusual survival of an early town and county center. It represents a cross section of development, varying from the late seventeenth to the late nineteenth century. Historically and geographically the center of Staten Island, Richmondtown is about seven miles from St. George and is located in LaTourotte Park.
The town is in process of restoration and reconstruction. Certain notable buildings on Staten Island, which would otherwise have been lost, have been moved to Richmondtown to insure their preservation.
Some reconstructions are planned to fill in historical gaps. Some modern buildings, in character with their surroundings, will also be added to provide necessary services. Streets within the area will be closed to vehicular traffic; peripheral highways will give access to parking fields and to the visitors' entrance.
The houses will eventually be completely furnished and shops equipped with tools to show how previous generations lived and worked. Quiet tree-lined streets, gardens and orchards will form an attractive part of the setting of the town.
The Richmondtown Restoration, which includes this courthouse within its boundaries, is the only project of its kind in the metropolitan region. It is administered by the Staten Island Historical Society under a contract between the Society and the New York City Department of Parks.
The Third County Courthouse is located in a dominant position on its original site. It was built in 1837 in the Greek Revival style. A pedimented portico with four unfluted Doric columns is actually a forward extension of the main roof line.
The columns, without bases, rest on a handsome stone foundation. A cupola, containing the Courthouse bell, surmounts the roof. This building consists of a central block flanked by two smaller wings.
The front is of local trap rock, and the roar and sides are of brick, it has been repaired and painted both inside and out, and the large court room is complete with the judge's bench, clerk's desk and witness box. The building is now used for the administration offices and auditorium of the Richmondtown Restoration and of the Staten Island HistoricaI Society.
History
The first European colonists settled in the area that is now known as Richmondtown in about 1680, the date of the first land grant. In 1695 a combined church, school and home for the lay reader and school toacher, known as the Voorlezer, was built by the congregation of the Dutch Reformed Church. In 1696 the Dutch received a lease of land in Cocclestown (Richmondtown) upon which stood the Voorlezor's house.
This hamlet was probably known as Cocclestown bocause of the heaps of oyster and clam shells or "coccles" left there by the departing Indians.
Many of the buildings we see in Richmondtown today were built in the early part of the eighteenth century Including a church, a county house, a jail and several houses. The Revolution had little effect on this quiet community, except for the fact that the courthouse and church were destroyed because the Dutch were believed be sympathetic to the rebel cause.
In 1898 Staten Island became a borough of the City of New York, and the many county functions and offices which had been at Richmondtown were moved to St. George. By 1920 all the remaining offices had also been transferred.

Well, third times the charm. It was rescheduled a couple times cuz of The ‘Vid, and finally…..they arrived…played about three hours straight….sounded fantastic, perfect weather, and Slash was on fire. He did a 10 minute blues solo, and everyone seemed in a good mood and happy with the crowd I think. Sometimes you can tell when a band is not feeling it. Weather was perfect but still felt weird being around that many people right now. But another part of me feels like I’m being chased by a ghost…and there’s nothing I can do about it if it catches me. Because I can’t see it coming.
