The Pagoda, a famous structure located inside the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, in Indiana. I took it with a Fuji Film disposable camera back on May 18th, 2003.

This building used to house the glove factory that used to be here in town. For about a month, when my family moved to Norris City back in 1974, my Mom worked at the glove factory. She did this to help bring in an income until Dad’s electric motor repair shop could get established. I don’t think the glove factory lasted past the 1970s. This disposable camera was one I bought back in 2013 and I’m finally getting around to using it. You can’t use a camera you got at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum, in Springfield, Illinois, just anywhere!

The biggest house in my little town. Nobody has lived in it for forty years or so. This camera came as a freebie that was thrown in with a lens I purchased. It didn’t have the battery door anymore, so I substituted one from a Pentax K1000 and it seemed to work. Taken with my forty-sixth camera.

It opened on October 10th, 1979 and was designed by noted architect Richard Meier. It won the Progressive Architecture Award that year, the American Institute of Architects Honor award in 1982, and in 2008 it won AIA’s prestigious Twenty-Five Year award, given to no more than one building per year.

The title says "Hip To Be Square." I add this because when choosing to translate comments below images, the software doesn't include the title. I'm pretty sure this little square brick building was part of the railway complex that stood next to the railroad line that used to run through the middle of my little town. For the Saturday Self-Challenge group, who's theme this week was "Interesting Architecture." I think this little building is interesting due to the fact that it was designed for just one single purpose - to house the shutoff valves located inside it.

This is Independence Hall, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Declaration of Independence was signed in this building back in 1776.

The Wakeford House was built in 1877 here in my town of Norris City, Illinois. The town itself wasn't incorporated until 1901, so I find the fact that this house is older than the town to be quite fascinating. As far as I know, it's the oldest house here. For the Saturday Self-Challenge group, who's theme this week was history.

The Webb-Hay house, located in Carmi, Illinois. It is one of the old, original homes there, built in 1876 in the Italiante style. It's closed to the public right now, but there is a party room on the third floor and a pub in the basement. It used to be a bed and breakfast inn.

The top of the towering City Federal building, located in Birmingham, Alabama. It's design is pure classic.

This is what the side of my home looked like a scant 5 years ago - I hadn't realized that it had grown up so much. Now, the rose bush you see at the bottom of the chimney has grown so tall, it stretches above the top of the roof. And a tree has grown at the left edge that I'm going to have to remove. And the rest of the space along the ground has bushes I'm going to remove because I don't like the clutter. I think there are Elephant ears to the right of the chimney and hollies or pointsettas to the left.

I found out rather unexpectedly last night that last week, they bulldozed the home I used to live in. My Dad and I built this for my family back in 1976, but this picture dates from around 1978. It's really sad to know that it's gone and somebody just tore it down instead of living in it. It was a nice house.
