Random Object Photographs

I was going through some of my older photos and found these. One is the Seattle skyline and Mt. Rainier taken through the sculpture at Kerry Park, the other is a fisherman a couple miles south of here:

The Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City.



This is the main lobby at The Huntsman Cancer Institute.
This is the view from where I get to work every other week.
From here I get to deliver flowers, oxygen bottles, help discharge and transport patients.
I also get to shuttle guests (patients) to and from Huntsman and the University Of Utah Hospital.



This is looking back down at the lobby from the third floor.
The entire building is more like a 5-Star Hotel than a cancer hospital.



This is the view from the same place as the above picture looking out over Salt Lake City. Its an awesome view.



This is the view from the Bistro on the 6th floor where I have lunch. They have two outstanding restaurants on the 6th floor.
The area marked off by the orange tape is where they are adding their new $31 million Proton Treatment Center. The only one in the intermountain area.



This is the view from the Infusion Center. This is where they administer chemo treatments and other infusions. They do an average of 130 infusions every day. Its the largest Infusion Center in the country.

Sorry the last two pictures are soo small. Long story. :D

This is such an amazing place. Everyone who works here is amazing.

I am grateful that Jon Huntsman Sr decided that SLC was going to be the home for this fine cancer institute.
 
What’s That?

A while back, oddball eccentric millionaire John McAfee moved down to Rodeo, NM.
He built an ultra-light airplane opetation which included this building.
Like most things he’s been involved with, it didn’t last and he moved on.

Cool little "random object" discovered at the in-laws. The WWI Shaving Kit of hubby's grandpa.

My dad when he was 3 1/2 years old on their dry farm in Ozone Idaho back in 1919.
Today is his 103rd birthday. Wish he was here to celebrate.[/QUOTE]

He looks like he’s ready for some action!
What’s that handgun he’s packing?
I hope you still have it!

maybe someone on the forum can identify it. I have no idea.

Over the years dad sold off what few guns he had.

My brother tracked down a German Luger that he traded for some car repairs back in the mid-60s. The owner of the shop still had t but wouldn't part with it. I'm sure my brother made him a handsome offer for it too. :(

We do have one Ruger .22 that my mom shot a window peeper with back in about 1949.

I’m thinking your Dad is packing a Colt Woodsman.

On this Cinco de Mayo, I remembered this recently scanned photo from my inlaw's collection. It was from hubby's great-uncle's photos. The identity of the flyer is lost to us, but the photo is taken in Mexico, March 14, 1918.

I don't read Spanish, but the note seems written by a son named Baudilio to his mother.

Edit: A translation was just offered by Stevens (Steve W):

Beloved Mother,
If in this life we don't see each other again, may this be a fond remembrance of your beloved son.
Baudilio.
Mexico 14-3- 1918
