This is a shameless re-post from a year or more ago.
Let's see a very narrow urban street or alley.

Show us an old or old-fashion kitchen.

Not quite a full kitchen, but I hope this old coal stove will do- it was still in use on a campsite I visited way back in 2011.


Lets see library of books

Phew-talk about IT taking over the dominance of books in the the acquisition of knowledge. Surely someone has an image of a few books-or even a picture of a library will do!

Give me a bit, I'll see what can be found.

Here are two of the bookshelves in this room. The green folders are filled with what we call "reprints," but others call "tear sheets," copies of primary articles published in technical journals. There are more shelves in this room but it isn't possible to include them in a single image. There are more all through the house, in just about every room (not the bathroom) and many in the basement. More books stacked on the floor and in closets. Couldn't begin to count how many books and reprints there are in this house, certainly into the tens of thousands.
For contrast, let's see an interior space that is meticulously neat, clean and orderly.

I DO know what it is like. My son was little concerned with orderliness, and was also a relentless scrounger for the most useless bits of junk. But have faith, he now keeps his own home very well = the collected items are at least neatly displayed. Will I be forced to post an image to extricate us from my own challenge??

How about a room from Versailles ...

Let's see some stained glass, please.

(Can I play?) Here is one!
This is one of the oldest LDS Churches in Los Angeles, built by an architectural firm and therefore a departure from the usual member built buildings that are much more plain.



Can anyone show a structure with broken windows?

Here's a building along the line that long separated Catholic (Republican) from Protestant (Unionist) in (London)Derry.
While we're on windows, let's see an interior illuminated by tiny windows, preferably only one.

Here you are, not quite only one window, but it is known as a bay window. I could of course remove the side windows digitally. Hope this is acceptable.


Let see boardwalk
