Well ... Dam!

 

Ah, Civil Hydro-Electric Engineering. As usual, no info on the slide, but using my magical searching powers, I reckon that his is Moyie Dam in Idaho.

In fact, this news article has a very similar shot.

The Peebles Bull-Ring

 

People usually associate bull-fighting with Spain, Mexico or France, but are often surprised to know of the Scottish experiment with bull-fighting.

The sinking of the Armada on its attempt to sail back to Spain left many Spaniards ship-wrecked and marooned in Scotland. So, adapting to the economic climate, some started Bull-Fighting.

This was the Bull-Ring at Peebles in 1966. By 1970, the bull ring was un-used, and the structure was bull-dozed to create space for another 18-hole Golf Course.

Beach. With people.

 

Time for a Tedious Tuesday slide.

In fact....


This might actually sell as Wall Art

Bermuda Cricket Watching

 

There was circumstantial evidence that this picture was taken in Bermuda, and I'm guessing that the Roof-Sitters are settling for a day of cricket watching. 

However from a brief search on t'interweb, I've not tracked down the exact location.

The word "Superette" is new to me, but apparently, it means the same as a Mini-Mart.
