Benjamin Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. He was also a leading author and printer, satirist, political theorist, politician, scientist, inventor, civic activist, statesman, soldier and diplomat. As a scientist, he was a major figure in the history of physics for his discoveries and theories regarding electricity. He invented the lightning rod, bifocals, the Franklin stove, a carriage odometer, and the glass ‘armonica’. He formed both the first public lending library in America and the first fire department in Pennsylvania. As a diplomat during the American Revolution, he secured the French alliance that helped to make independence of the United States possible. Franklin, with his Puritan values of thrift, hard work and education, is credited as being foundational to the roots of American values and character, which he expressed brilliantly through his writings and infamous quotes. / / Benjamin Franklin was born on January 17, 1706 in Boston, Massachusetts, and moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, when he was 17 years old. He lived in Philadelphia for the remainder of his life, dying there on April 17, 1790. It was during his 67 years in Philadelphia that he achieved most of his great successes and today he is highly regarded as a “favorite son” of the city. His legacy is most powerfully felt at The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, which was not started by Franklin himself, but was founded in his honor in 1938 because he was one of the nation’s earliest and most well-known scientists. There are a number of interesting exhibits at The Franklin Institute that are meant to help guests not only understand the world of science in greater detail, but also to provide hands-on experience to help people fall in love with what science can do. One favorite exhibit among museum-goers is the “Franklin, He’s Electric” display, which is hands-on and focuses on the wide number of inventions thought up by Benjamin Franklin, including of course electricity. Another favorite is “The Train Factory”, where folks will find a real steam locomotive which actually has room to move. This photograph is of a 20-foot high marble statue of Benjamin Franklin in the rotunda of The Franklin Institute. Below are some of Benjamin Franklin’s famous quotes: “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” ”You may delay, but time will not.” ”Three can keep a secret if two of them are dead.” ”When in doubt, don’t.” ”Some people die when they are 25 but are not buried until they are 75.” ”I guess I don’t so much mind being old, but I do mind being old and fat.” ”If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins.” ”He who falls in love with himself will have no rivals.” ”Honesty is the best policy.” ”Beware of little expenses because a small leak could sink a great ship.” ”Certainty? In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes.” ”Fatigue is the best pillow.” ”A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small bundle.” ”Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.” Thank you to the groups “Canon DSLR” and “Statues and Such” for featuring this photograph.

Taken in Bodie State Park, California / Bodie is a ghost town in the Bodie Hills east of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Mono County, California. / Bodie began as a mining camp of little note following the discovery of gold in 1859 by a group of prospectors, including W.S. Bodey Bodey perished in a blizzard the following November while making a supply trip to Monoville (near present day Mono City, CA), never getting to see the rise of the town that was named after him. According to area pioneer, Judge J.G. McClinton, the district’s name was changed from “Bodey,” “Body,” and a few other phonetic variations, to “Bodie,” after a painter in the nearby boomtown of Aurora lettered a sign “Bodie Stables”. Gold discovered at Bodie coincided with the discovery of silver at nearby Aurora, Nevada, and the distant Comstock Lode beneath Virginia City, Nevada. But while these two towns boomed, interest in Bodie remained lackluster. By 1868 only two companies had built stamp mills at Bodie, and both had failed. / In 1876, the Standard Company discovered a profitable deposit of gold-bearing ore, which transformed Bodie from an isolated mining camp comprising a few prospectors and company employees to a Wild West boomtown. Rich discoveries in the adjacent Bodie Mine during 1878 attracted even more hopeful people. By 1879, Bodie had a population of approximately 5000-7000 people and around 2,000 buildings. One idea maintains that in 1880, Bodie was California’s second or third largest city, but the U.S. Census of that year disproves the popular tale. Over the years, Bodie’s mines produced gold valued at nearly $34 million. / Bodie boomed from late 1877 through mid-to late-1880. California and Nevada newspapers predicted Bodie would become the next Comstock Lode. Men from both states were lured to Bodie by the prospect of another bonanza. / As a bustling gold mining center, Bodie had the amenities of larger towns, including two banks, four volunteer fire companies, a brass band, a railroad, miner’s and mechanic’s unions, several daily newspapers, and a jail. At its peak 65 saloons lined Main Street, which was a mile long. Murders, shootouts, barroom brawls, and stagecoach holdups were regular occurrences. / The first signs of decline appeared in 1880 and became obvious towards the end of the year. Promising mining booms in Butte, Montana; Tombstone, Arizona; and Utah lured men away from Bodie. The get-rich quick, single miners who originally came to the town in the 1870s moved on to these other booms, which eventually turned Bodie into a family-oriented community. Despite the population decline, the mines were flourishing, and in 1881 Bodie’s ore production was recorded at a high of $3.1 million. By 1910, the population was recorded at 698 people, which were predominantly families that decided to stay in Bodie instead of moving on to other prosperous strikes. The last mine closed in 1942, due to War Production Board order L-208, shutting down all gold mines in the United States. Mining never resumed.

Whilst visiting Northumberland, England, our family decided to spend a day across in Scotland. We crossed over this lovely bridge into Coldstream village. My wife and daughter decided to go and do a bit of shopping in the village whilst the boys and me enjoyed the lovely village gardens, just as it began spotting with rain. To the east of Coldstream lies Smeaton’s seven arched bridge, built between 1763 – 1766 at a cost of £6000. The bridge spans the river Tweed replacing the age old invasion ford, and connects Scotland to the north with its neighbour England to the south. This is where the River Leet joins the Tweed. This indeed was Coldstream’s raison d’etre (reason for being). Consequently, most major Scottish and English armies invaded each other’s territories over this ford. / “The bridge has experienced some repair and change during the twentieth century, the foundations were protected with concrete, the parapet walls rebuilt and the cauld repaired in 1922. In 1960 – 1961 the bridge was strengthened by reinforced concrete relieving arches and widened by cantilevering the footpaths.” This is a HDR image combining 3 bracketed shots using Photomatix Pro for Macs.
