Central and eastern Oregon is spotted with once vibrant farming communities that today exist as little more than a crossroads. This old church served such a community. It remains standing but the town it once served is no more. Please check out my series Grain Elevator, Sherman County, Oregon for a look at another historic Oregon building. More images: /
This is one of the Corporals from the Lord Strathcona’s Horse Regiment (also known as the Royal Canadians)...........with his horse, Sherman…....... Sherman was lying down resting in his stall after a busy morning…....All these horses are so beautiful and so loved by their humans…....... Behind the scene shots are my favorite…..........

Old and New Grain Elevators, Sherman County, Oregon is part of a growing series of images depicting a historic, wooden grain elevator located in Kent, Oregon, a once robust farming community that today is little more than a crossroads. [see the series] Concrete and metal grain elevators dot central and eastern Oregon and operate as hubs for farming co-ops. Farmers contribute their grain and in so doing, collectively maintain greater leverage on market rates. These elevators primarily serve large farms because that’s mostly what remains in operation in Oregon today, but this wooden example is part of a tangible legacy of small, family-run ranches and their fight to maintain a uniquely American way of life. This fascinating building is one of a precious remaining few – most have been disassembled or burned down (often due to arson). Its timbers graduate from as thick as 12”x12” at the base to much thinner as you ascend its elevation, an engineering tactic that enabled great scale. It’s no longer in use – the cement elevator next to it is – but it’s weather-worn and patinated, wooden mosaic and it’s sheer bulk – visible for miles – is quite incredible to behold.

When I see or read about the Battle of the Bulge, I can’t help not thinking of the Sherman Tank. They were like mosquitoes on the backs of the German Panzer Tanks. A real work horse in WWII.
Sherman is y parents cat that came from a litter of kittens of a cat that I once owned. Sherman is a cross tabby x Tonkinese. He weighs 9 and half kilos and he is a fantastic mouse and rat killer. This photo reminds me of a sleeping dragon ready to pounce.

This is a piece dedicated to, an homage to, etc. to one of my favourite photographers, Cindy Sherman. Influence in this piece can be seen in the Fairytales series, and her various use of dolls and other props.
WWII Sherman Tank converted into a bulldozer somewhere in the Boston Mountains of Arkansas
This is a school assignment. What I did is a replica of Cindy Sherman’s Untitled # 82, 1981 /
It was probably about 1980-81…I got paid big bucks to read in the shade, my sister in law got paid zilch to quench the Special Effects …
I can’t remember the name of the movie that I was working on, but I remember things about it. Like the type of motorcycle the fire team rode. All about the tanks. Where it was shot.
Sherman Avenue / Coeur d’Alene, Idaho / circa 1950 This photo was taken by my father, Kyle M. Walker. I met my wife crusing this street in the 70’s like American Graffiti.
This was something i had a play with. It’s my friends cat.
Someone was having fun playing fetch, but it wasn’t Sherman!
If you’re roughly my age, you’ll remember that song. I sent my parents one of those messages too, on a post-card, bought with the shillings that I was sent off to Nelson Bay Camp with. We were living in the migrant hostel, in Poziers Ave., Matraville and we children were given a holiday at another Migrant Camp (ex-army), which apparently wasn’t occupied at the time. (I’d love to know what the situation was.) / / Perhaps the intention was to show us, migrant children the good life. / Or give our parents a break? / / There was a daily inspection of the rooms. Prizes for the neatest group, at the end, or something. / / The hostel was within walking distance of Zenith Beach and when friends, in Newcastle offered to take me for a drive, in the late 70s, I asked to see Zenith Beach again. / I have been telling these stories here lately. —-—-—-—-- / Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah 1) Hello Muddah, hello Faddah, Here I am at Camp Grenada. Camp is very entertaining, and they say we’ll have some fun if it stops raining. 2) I went hiking with Joe Spivey, He developed poison ivy. You remember Leonard Skinner, He got ptomaine poisoning last night after dinner. 3) All the counselors hate the waiters, And the lake has alligators. And the head coach wants no sissies, so he reads to us from something called Ulysses. 4) Now I don’t want this should scare ya, But my bunk mate has malaria. You remember Jeffrey Hardy, they’re about to organize a searching party. 5) Take me home oh Muddah, Faddah, take me home I hate Grenada. Don’t leave me out in the forest, Where I might get eaten by a bear. 6) Take me home, I promise I will not make noise, Or mess the house with other boys. Oh, please don’t make me stay, I’ve been here one whole day. 7) Dearest Faddah, Darling Muddah, How’s my precious little bruddah? Let me come home if you miss me, I would even let Aunt Bertha hug and kiss me. 8) Wait a minute, it stopped hailing, guys are swimming, guys are sailing. Playing baseball, gee that’s bettah, Muddah, Faddah, kindly disregard this lettah. [Grades 2-5: History of popular music; Famous American Songs; Humor]
