Story of Rose Cottage and Isabella Furnace and St. Mary’s of Providence … This is part 4 of 6 for Part I Click here She decided to use several of the houses used by the employees who had left to start a summer school for the area children. She got busy, She enlisted the aid of several of her lady friends, and her maid, Miss Albertina Johnson, to turn the abandoned places into a place where the children could come during the summer months and have fun, play games, play ball, and perhaps even learn a worthwhile skill or two. Mabel officially opened the Rose Cottage in the summer of 1900, and children came from Downingtown, and points in between on the train from Elverson, Honey Brook and all the surrounding country. Most walked; many were brought by horse and wagon. The original plan was for the children to meet every Wednesday morning at the cottage. There were two buildings eventually, one for the boys and another for the girls. Girls learned embroidery and sewing. Boys had workbenches and tools. All the children made baseballs from a small rubber ball with cord and sewed leather covers over the ball. Mabel ran the Rose Cottage for the neighborhood children for more than twenty years and then she stopped. No one alive knows why; records are nonexistent. She spent the last years of her life alone with William in the grand mansion on the hill. Sometimes, though, as she was doing her handiwork by the great black onyx fireplace, or puttering around the vast Victorian glass conservatory with her exotic flowers, she could be seen smiling and nodding to herself. She was remembering the summer days of long ago when she met Rose, and they became friends, and ll the wonderful children who attended the summer school, the ice cream they ate, and the great sugar cookies that arrived every Wednesday on the train from Barrett’s Bakery in Downingtown. According to the archives of the University of Pennsylvania, Mabel Potts died in December 1942, just six months before her husband William passed away in May 1943. The grand estate was inherited by her niece, Helen Lanier Smith, and her son sold it to developers when she died. Then the once-magnificent estate began to show ravages of time. It lay empty for five years. The Potts’ bones settled into the dust, forgotten by time and by men. Then, something happened that some would consider a very strange occurrence. Some, those who believe in such things, would call it a miracle. For part 5 Click here

This is where I played the gig I didn’t actually play last weekend. As any Sacramentan can see, this is serious snow and not something to be walking thru, much less schlepping 500 pounds of high tech musical equipment thru. As anyone who’s not a Sacramentan can see (and those Sacramentans who have foolishly ventured abroad), this amount of snow is a joke and anyone afraid of it just HAS to be a woosey. I proclaim to be non-woosey as quickly as I claim to loath this stuff but I’ll admit it doesn’t look anything like what I’m seeing on the news from as close as 70 miles from home. That said, the part that was most unsettling is that this is the level of the first floor of the building. I already passed a steep decline equivalent to another story that had an immediate 80% left turn on it. And below this point was another steep drop of about 40%, or another to get a skateboarder airborne if you had the right coat on. On the other side of the building, the initial climb is a narrow, full 90% right turn followed by twice as long a climb as the first side because it’s all in one curvy piece. For me, where there’s snow, there’s ice. Like snow IS ice crystals, right? So the intense fear of driving on the black pavement, in dim lighting, with a heavily weighted van with rear wheel drive and a completely inexperienced cold weather driver, I believe, is justified. If you don’t think so, I can accept that. Hell, I can even accept being called a woosey. I’m a big enough guy to take that from the entire free world who might read this. Sure, it’s embarrassing. But so is admitting I wouldn’t willingly walk in that stuff for $1 million in pure gold. Bite me.

Something I’m playing with . . . I need to shoot it more. This foundry reminds me of the manufacturies of hell . . er . . . engines of hell? Something like that. Tripod mounted, E500, 150 mm lens; RAW, absolutely untouched in post beyond converting it to an 8 bit JPEG. Oh yeah . . . the name. The path to hell is paved with good intentions. (Personally, I’d pave it with Teflon, on the path to hell, the more slippery the slope, the quicker you get there.) I’ve avoided the thirds rule here. There’s a telephone poll centrally located,and talk to me. Or not.

love this. Lorri Barisic Memorial Ride and Party / held at Foundry Moto in Phx, AZ on June 20, 2009 ALL SALES FROM THESE SHOTS OF HER PARTY WILL BE DONATED DIRECTLY TO LORRI’S MEMORIAL FUND. Lorri lost her life in a tragic motorcycle accident on May 13, 2009. Although I never had the pleasure in meeting her, we do share mutual friends and I had the honor of attending this kick ass party that her family and friends put on in her honor. There was music, friends, family, bikes, an auction of all that was donated, and a whole lotta drinking and laughing on this night. Although the turn out was wonderful, there are still bills to be paid for Lorri’s family and hopefully we can raise even more than just what’s needed… maybe even enough for her ol’ man to get the fuck outta dodge for a minute. oh and…....
