This massive, hollow metal sculpture (arguably a bird cage) in the middle of Park Avenue stood outside out building. In the winter, when hit with a snowball, it made a satisfying BOOOOOONNNNNNNNGGGGGGGG sound.

http://www.ivindustries.com/hines/gallery/albums/bridge/DSCN0474.sized.jpgLooking north at the old U.S. Highway 98 Hathaway Bridge as itexplodes, the new span is right behind. It's the third time they've rebuilt that bridge because salt water's eaten it away and traffic keeps getting heavier and heavier. It connects Panama City Beach with Panama City (which is entirely different...the former's very affluent/bourgeois/over-developed, and that latter's very proletarian/derelict/grey/redneck with lots of retired military folks).

My residence/hometown: Tallahassee, Florida
http://www.hellotallahassee.com/Tallahassee/images/Tallahassee-Downtown.jpgDefinitely taken from our priapic State Capitol and facing to the north. Fake brick road on the left is Adams Street (and you'll notice fake brick crosswalks to the right on Monroe Street, which runs parallel to Adams Street) and the street in the immediate foreground is Jefferson Street. Tall buildings in the center are the Highpoint Center (appropriately) and the Doubletree Hotel immediately behind it. To the right of them, the narrow brown tower is a Sprint antenna and the brown building further behind that is the Georgia Bell Apartments (a residence for the elderly).
http://www.attention-to-details.com/newslogimg/tallahassee-at-night-2_993.jpgCool picture of Monroe Street (US Highway 27) about three miles north of downtown.
http://www.clas.ufl.edu/users/kingsch/tallahassee.jpgFacing west toward the aforementioned phallic State Capitol that could also be construed as a middle finger to the city (with the knuckles/balls being the House of Representatives on the right and the Senate on the left...plus there are two other buildings beside them that are obscured that would make a "full hand" if you could see them...but you can't, so pretend it's a giant penis), and Apalachee Parkway (also US Highway 27) leading up to it. I live about 2.5 miles east of here.
http://home.comcast.net/~dondraughon/tenn-.jpgTennessee Street facing eastward at its intersection with Macomb Street. There are a few restaurants and concert venues in this area that Florida State students frequent, the homeless shelter is where the mural in the center of the picture is, and the Holiday Inn Express is the tallest bulilding featured in this image.
http://home.comcast.net/~dondraughon/monthom-.jpgAnd finally the intersection of Thomasville Road and Monroe Street further north from downtown. Not very attractive, but it's a bit more real than those nice downtown aerial views.

This is the spring. I did not know it was megalithic. You can drink from it. Sometimes there are tadpoles. It has been done up. It looked better in my day. The youth club is just next door, with the chapel on the other side. We used to have school dinners in the chapel.
― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 29 March 2005 10:29 (twenty years ago)
Sacred spring in Leicestershire and Rutland.Blackfordby Spring is situated near the chapel in the lower part of the village (INACCURATE!!!!) which is at the bottom of the hill some 200 yards south-west of the church.
This may be the well once known as St Margaret's Well.
It delivers water copiously at over five gallons a minute and, apparently, has never been known to fail. Until piped water was introduced, it was used by practically the whole village.
Based on the description by, and used by kind permission of, Bob Trubshaw, from his Interactive Little-known Leicestershire and Rutland CD-ROM.
