It was gloomy for the first 115 kms. Then, magically, it turned quite nice. In the Fraser Valley we had a tail wind, lovely scenery, and, thanks to the Canucks game, at 6:00 p.m., almost NO traffic!
A World War Two subterranean concrete shelter outside the Fort in Barrack Field. The shelter, covered by an earthen blast mound measuring 47ft 6in x 21ft 11in x 3ft 3in high, is a simple passage, 24ft x 4ft 9in x 6ft 5in high, with small square lavatory cubicles, 3ft 1in x 2ft 11in, at either end, in front of which steps rise to ground level at right angles to the shelter.

The first traces of human inhabitation of the area that is now Hill Count date back to the year 1300. By the eighteenth century, groups of Waco and Tawakoni had established hunting camps in the eastern portions of the county.
European settlement began with the Spanish expeditions, with the first Anglo settler arriving (and rather promptly being killed in after ignoring Spanish warning to leave) 1801. Stephen F. Austin's 1822 survey map included the Hill County area. The area later became Navarro County.
In 1852, a petition was circulated to divide Navarro county, and in 1852, Hill county was formed, and named after George Washington Hill, who had served as Sam Houston's Secretary of War.
By 1870, the county's population had doubled, reaching 7,453 people, and sometime in 1871 or 1872, the Chisholm Trail had reached the northwest corner of the county, and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railway reached the county in 1881.
Originally spelled "Hillsborough", the county seat of Hillsboro was established when the county was formed in 1853, and soon had a school and post office, as well as a wood framed courthouse. The town grew rapidly after the railroads reached the area in the 1880s. An increase in cotton production between 1890 and 1910 resulted in a building boom, including numerous Queen Anne style houses in the community, and the current courthouse.
The three story 1890 Second Empire style building in the town square is either the the county's third or fourth courthouse, depending on which source is cited.
On January 1, 1993, an electrical short started a fire that caused the bell tower to collapse, and destroyed most of the rest of the building. An extensive restoration was embarked upon, including fundraising concerts by Hill County native Willie Nelson. Restoration was completed, and the courthouse rededicated, in 1999.
In 1995, the Texas Historical Commission undertook a two year project to document the 55 oldest courthouses in the state, and the Hill County Courthouse because something of a poster child for what turned into their Courthouse Preservation Program that began in 1999.
Frost protect your condensate lines and have peace of mind that your boiler will operate all year round!
I went to a property surplus and bought two disposable cameras for a dollar. The exposures were already used up, so I had them developed.
The second roll looked like someone touring Flagstaff, someone who forgot their camera. For whatever reason, I don't think they were upset. I don't think they looked hard.
Many of these places look all too familiar to me.
park step trace, 2009
The work is a continuation of the investigation of social space I began in black play white play, 2008. park step trace is an exploration of how we experience space, perceive space and negotiate space, and also provokes social prejudices.
The work is essentially a telephone booth like structure made out of plexi, erected on the steps in Fort Greene Park. Through a performance drawing, the movements of park goers is captured. The work is inherently contradictory, at first intending to capture the perception of how the park is used, but by intervening in the space, those very paths are disrupted.
