Decorating the VHC for the Last Time

The lights at the Vigilant Hose Company in Shippensburg aren't what they once were but next year we will be in a whole new firehouse and starting new traditions.

Summerdale Fire Company

Digging deep for pictures today. I took these last fall. This is, or should I say was, the Summerdale Fire Company, Cumberland County Company 20. It's been about a year now that they joined forces with the Citizen's Fire Company of Enola (Company 18) and formed the Northeast Fire and Rescue. I was through this part of East Pennsboro last fall and caught the apparatus sitting out on the ramp, thought I'd burn a few images.

Morning Light

The Assateague Island Lighthouse, taken from the channel bridge over Assateague Bay about a half hour after sunrise.

Henderson Gymnasium at Ship U

Henderson Gymnasium on the campus of Shippensburg University in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania. (from SU's website...) "The Henderson Gymnasium houses the Department of Exercise Science and is located in the historic part of campus behind Old Main and Horton Hall. Henderson was built in 1937". This was taken from David See Field in the Robb Sports Complex.

Baltimore to New York or Washington

This is a picture I took from the concourse of the nose bleed section at Camden Yards in Baltimore. Just playing around I made it look old and like someone printed it backwards. Why? Because I can. And it makes it look more interesting.

Christmas at Children's Lake

Don't you just love last minute decisions? Saturday night I was at the camera shop, 12 miles southwest of home. While talking we decided to go check out the floating tree at Children's Lake in Boiling Springs, Pennsylvania. 25 miles northeast of home. It was cold and it was cool, but I may have to go back at try the picture thing again. The long exposure was not the problem. It was a light breeze the was my problem. There was just enough wind to move the lights and screw the focus. Anyways, the tree floats out on the lake and the lake is surrounded by luminaries. We drove home looking at some of the ridiculous, Clark W. Griswald wanna be Christmas decorators. Wow. 

And, no, that is the old mill back there, not a barn. So, no barn this week.
