Twin bottles of heat, because it's not too hot at all really, it's the Fota Island Polar Bear's experience out there.
They live right next to a huge farmer's market and seem to be friendly and cautious exactly when appropriate.
This long forgotten family resting place is hidden in the forest away from the eyes of anyone who might pass by. The tombstone in the forefront is dated from April of 1845. There is what appears to be a smaller, child sized tombstone at the far corner.
But all references I can find have listed only two graves here.

Ebay tintypes. The pose is slightly different in these two shots. The Ebay seller said this came with a note, "Mother at age 18."

This is the bed and breakfast's SUV at the end of the storm, before we got it dug out. It's the only "two-story" SUV I've ever seen.

Georgetown Airport Classic Car and Vintage Plane Show
February 27, 2016
Georgetown, TX
I went to my first large-scale Texas car show yesterday, actually it was cars and airplanes, which is something I hadn't seen in all my years of attending these types of shows in California.
Billed as the "5th Annual Georgetown Airport Classic Car and Vintage Plane Show - Motorcycles Welcome," the event was free, but donations were accepted for a veterans organization. Of course, I gave.
It was pretty big, with a decent mix of chrome, rust, and tattoos. There was a C-47 that was giving half-hour rides, a beautiful P-40, and a quarter mile stretch of really cool hot rods.
I was there for a little over an hour and a half, the weather was perfect, sunny and just below 70º, and I walked up and down the length of the show four times, taking over a hundred pictures. About half were keepers.
I had a great time.

Jalakandeswarar Temple, Vellore, Tamilnadu, India
Jalakandeswarar Temple is an temple dedicated to Lord Shiva which is located in the Vellore Fort, Tamil Nadu State, India
According to legend, there used to a giant ant-hill at the location where the sanctum sanctorum of temple now stands. This ant-hill was surrounded by stagnant water, as a result of collection of rain water, and at some time a Shiva Lingam was placed in this water around the ant hill and worshiped. Chinna Bommi Nayaka, a Vijayanagar chieftain, who was controlling the fort had a dream where the Lord Shiva asked him to build a temple at that location. Nayaka, proceeded to demolish the anthill and build the temple in 1550 AD, and since the Lingam was surrounded by water (called Jalam in Tamil) the deity was called as Jalakandeswarar (translated as "Lord Siva residing in the water"). The temple was built during the reign of the Vijayanagaram king Sadasivadeva Maharaya (1540 - 1572 AD). The temple also has the statue of Sri Akhilandeshwari Amma, the consort of Jalakandeswarar.
The Jalakanteshwara Temple is a fine example of Vijayanagaram Architecture. The temple has exquisite carvings on its gopuram (tower), richly carved stone pillars, large wooden gates and stunning monoliths and sculptures. These Vijayanagara sculptures are similar to the ones present in Soundararajaperumal Temple, Thadikombu, Krishnapuram Venkatachalapathy temple, Srivilliputhur Divya Desam and Alagar Koyil. The Gopuram of the tower is iver 100 ft. in height. The temple also has a Mandapam, with the hall supported by carved stone pillars of dragons, horses and yalis (lion like creature).
The temple itself built in middle of a water tank (called Agazhi in Tamil), and there is water surround the temple like a garland. The circumference of the water tank is 8000 ft. The wedding hall (Kalyana Mantapam) inside the temple has a 2 faced sculpture, that of a bull and an elephant. The water user for bathing the deity (abishekam) is drawn from an ancient well called the Ganga Gouri Thhertam, within the temple.
