Moving a giant refrigerator into the basement of the Columbia Presbyterian Church at 360 Locust Street.
Hey, isn't that Bill Morehart (in the cap) helping out? They had quite a time of it, but I think they finally got it in.
Look closely - he's in there.
A torpedo (?) at Through the Fire Studios on Locust Street
In the window at the borough office
At BHI Properties on Locust Street - Interesting how the owner of many properties in Columbia shows little respect for the town's history, at least judging from how that mailbox post was slammed into the historic entranceway floor.
An ornate door handle assembly on the 200 block of Locust Street
Outside the borough office - Could this transport belong to a council meeting attendee?
(Nah, I think it was someone paying a bill. They may have needed the Radio Flyer to carry all the coins.)
The always-interesting Chris Vera of the Columbia Historic Preservation Society gave a presentation on the tunnels of Columbia recently. The term "Underground Railroad" is more than just metaphorical. It (the term and the tunnel network) originated here, folks.
National and team loyalty
A camera-shy bluebird
A close-up of the fence at Mount Bethel Cemetery
Shadows
A red-tailed hawk takes a look around
Looking good
Leaf imprint in the concrete at Locust Street Park
Mill stones on Manor Street
Street signs down - intentional or accidental?
Cardinal in the grass, alas!
Red-tail in a tree - I don't think this is the same one shown above.
Another look
At the Prospect Motel
Almost ready for pizza
I didn't notice all these before.
Love is in the air, or at least on the bridge.
Parting of the ways
Interesting ornament on a gravestone
Anyone remember these? I'm sure Clark Kent does.
I saw those booths here on Third Street.
Bluebird at Laurel Hill - This one wasn't camera-shy.
Chopper overhead
A work-in-progress progressing
This bust at Mount Bethel Cemetery is often mistaken for Lloyd Mifflin, second best poet from Columbia, but is actually his father, John Houston Mifflin.
The painting of Lloyd Mifflin is near here (on the back wall of the Foresters).
Ready to pull some wire (seen near Front and Locust)
At the Columbia Water Company - Are these The Donald's bags of gold?
Cones and More at 411 Locust Street - This was slated to open yesterday. Did it happen?
At Mount Bethel Cemetery
Streets signs are down from a vehicle collision. Driver took one out in river park then the one pictures. Also took out a vehicle as well.
ReplyDeleteEach photo collage is an expression of Life in Columbia and those of us who view your web blog so appreciate your efforts! May you keep at this as long as your are willing and able!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'll keep trying.
DeleteApparently BHI is too cheap to pay for a PO Box. Wonder why they need such a big mailbox? And isn't there any code for downtown appearances? I don't see any other business on locust with an in ground post and mailbox. They are either on the wall or they have a mailslot on the door. WTH!!!
ReplyDeleteRight. They're the only one. It looks bad.
DeleteThe tower equipment on the top of the building at 4th and Locust was approved to have a wall built around the top to hide all of that.
ReplyDeleteSounds good. Thanks.
