Jane

As cute as she may seem, this little one is quite well acquainted with darkness. She blends with the shadows and becomes one with the night; all that remains is a sigh, a whisper, and the faint pulse of a beating heart.

Journey

No matter how short or long your journey through time is; you can be sure that there's light at the end of it. Keep that in mind, dear fellow traveler, and aim towards the light, always!

Presence

An empty room. The golden hour, and the scent of stillness, mixed with the breath of the flowers in the garden, seeping in through the cracks in the ancient doors.

No one there, yet one can almost feel the presence of someone, or something, in the room. Voices and memories from the past cling tenaciously to the old walls and curtains. It's just another afternoon in the Centennial, that peculiar, silent majesty.

The Launch Pad (Drone view)

The toy rocket launch pad is real to the mind of a child. The wish to reach for the stars in ingrained in all of us from a very early age. I bet those brave men who took us to the moon never stopped being children to begin with.

Chopper

Hi everybody, how are you doing?

Here's something different and interesting: a little chopper made from an old spark plug, some screws, and bits and pieces of scrap metal. Not my own design, but I couldn't resist buying it, when I came across it in a shop with products made in the so-called "third world."

You see this peculiar dragonfly sitting here on top of one of my old and rusty steam engines. It couldn't be any more "rust and steel" than this!

Thanks for visiting, and see you next time!

Happy Saturday

 On this beautiful Saturday, let's "identify" as.... NUTS!!

The magic of the Centennial.

Seen here almost empty in an early photo, the Centennial has captured my heart and my imagination from the very moment I laid my eyes on her in the city of Amsterdam.

 

This 100-year-old beauty has a charisma that makes her almost breathe and be alive!
 

I've added quite a lot of items and furniture since this photo was taken, making her even more interesting and beautiful than she already was. Most of these items are very old too and, like her, have aged gracefully.

Believe

Dare to believe; to believe in something bigger than yourself, and to believe in you!
