The Kodachrome Pictures:
These recently uploaded Kodachrome pictures have no artistic value. They were just uploaded to be representative of consumer Kodachrome picture recording during about 70 of the 75 years that Kodachrome was commercially available to the public. Unlike in today’s digital world it took time, money and effort to make a Kodachrome slide. We took fewer pictures, trying to stretch resources, but some sere still frivolous.
I’m 97 and all tuckered out. I probably will not post much more. The ratio of today’s digital pictures that are kept for any length of time and/or printed is much less than the film photos taken in days past. History will be lost. Meanwhile you get to be bored by some old Kodachromes.
The Camera:
Most of these pictures are not very sharp. They were taken with an Argus AF 35mm miniature Bakelite camera bought in 1938 at the USNA by saving much of my small student stipend for about six months. It had a Cooke style three element lens of marginal quality for its day of laughable quality compared with any of today’s SLR lenses. It had slightly better resolving ability than today’s ever more scarce disposable film cameras. The AF was an Argus upgrade which enabled the camera to focus at different lengths from about 1.5 feet to infinity. Most consumer cameras of that day were what we call medium format today. Most of the cheaper consumer grade cameras were little more than box- cameras with single element non-focusing meniscus lenses. The larger film hid much of the softness. The then newer miniature cameras had to do better because of the smaller film exposure size.

An exquisitely restored stone farmhouse situated among the rolling hills, fields, and vineyards of the Gaillac region of southern France, “La Bourthoumarie” is just a few kilometers from the lovely historic village of Cordes sur Ciel.
Written up in several European travel guides, “La Bourthoumarie” features four bedrooms, two covered outdoor dining areas, a 10-meter pool with large terrace, lovely gardens, and incredible views. The large rooms are flooded with natural light and contain fireplaces, original terra cotta tiled floors, and traditional exposed wood beam ceilings.
The well-equipped kitchen opens to a covered breakfast terrace, which is in fact the restored bread oven. A large, three-arched, attached barn houses a second outdoor dining area and barbecue.
A wide, gently spiraling, wood-and-iron staircase leads to the upper two floors, which contain four spacious bedrooms — two with double beds and private bathrooms and two with twin beds and a shared bathroom. Original wood floors contribute to the light and airy ambiance.
The beautifully landscaped ten-meter by five-meter pool is naturally chlorinated by an electrolysis system.
An hour from Toulouse, “La Bourthoumarie” offers an ideal setting to unwind or to explore the ancient and historic Gaillac appellation wine region and its fascinating medievale ‘bastide’ villages, including Cordes sur Ciel, which boasts lovely shops and restaurants, including one with a coveted Michelin star. The town of Albi, with its famous fortified cathedral and renowned Toulouse Lautrec museum, is nearby. The Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts are only a few hours away, as are the Pyrenees.
Adventures and activities abound for adults and children alike, including biking, tennis, golf, canoeing, rock climbing, and fishing.

Soldiers from the 3rd Battalion of the Royal Australian Regiment capture a 'high-value prisoner during a raid on an 'enemy' camp at the Tully Training Area during Exercise Hamel 2014.

I found all this at Value Village, all told for $72 No sets are complete, all are missing at least 1 or two minifigs, smaller items in the set, and a couple cases had some glue on them, most notable the TIE advanced. Still one heck of a deal.

“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don't we consider it his duty to escape? ... If we value the freedom of mind and soul, if we're partisans of liberty, then it's our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can!” ―J.R.R. Tolkien

I did stop putting up rows and started sewing these together because I know they can get pretty tedious after a while if I leave it all to the end! Along about the fifth row, I got to thinking that it would really be fun to go dust mop the floors, so I knew it was time for a sewing break :)
