That's why I'm always a bit upset when I see people only capturing an event through a phone lense instead of experiencing it in the moment. Of course I understand wanting to capture the memory, but if you're recording the entire memory through a phone you haven't actually experienced the moment. I always take a few pictures or a short video and then experience the rest in real time because there's nothing  like the real thing. Maybe I have an older mindset than most people our age, but I feel as though our entire generation lives life through a phone instead of really living. Alright I'm done thanks for coming to my Ted talk

I know where you're coming from. A couple of years back I realised that I was spending so much time at railway galas taking pictures that I wasn't really seeing the trains, so now I make a definite effort to lower the camera and actually look at the trains.

This is why I started doing the same thing when going to concerts. I felt lime I wasn't even really seeing and enjoying it anymore because I was recording the whole thing and really there was no need for that. You do miss the moment doing that so I've stopped taking so many videos when I'm going to events too.

It's hard to capture the true colors and beauty of something on just film. I think it's better to experience it yourself (▰˘◡˘▰) but you still do a darn good job.

Example: the moon :V the moon is too shy for cameras

These are amazing what are you talking about  

And it looks like it was supa dupa nice and relaxing.

Pretty great pictures again, as usual. That was a very nice day too. I wanted to put our names on the tree but she wouldn't let me because we would be "hurting the tree"

Tree hurter!!! 

O ya for sure with the heart health stuff. I probably worry too much you know me :V

He's been like going to the gym every other day lately I'm impressed lol ~ like every time I've called the past week he's been like ya we went to the gym earlier and swam some laps and did some working out @.@ 

He has I'm actually really glad for that too I think it will help his heart health more to get out and walk. I've also been worried about his weight because he seems too skinny lately. He's always been skinny-er y'know? But lately really skinny-er e.e

You should ~ you have the whole entire lakefront trail like RIGHT THERE lol I always loved walking on that 

Oh oh or go up to North Branch Trail I loveEEE it there. Or Northerly Island Park is a fave of mine too. 

I like north branch trail too it always seems less crowded than the other places mostly. If the weather is all good here this weekend I might do. Dad would probably tag along bwaha

That place looks so pretty and peaceful... maybe I need to start looking into taking more walks :V

Perhaps I shouldn't try to reply to questions early in the morning not long after I've got up .  I didn't do a very good job with my reply . Yes, the actual furnace, or perhaps crucible would be a better term, isn't all that big, but the structure that makes up the whole of the furnace is quite large from the ground to the top of the chimney it would be around 80 - 90 feet high and the walls of the structure would have to be thick enough to retain the heat and survive the high temperatures of the furnace 24 hours a day 7 days a week. The whole thing would also have to be wide enough at the top to allow room for them to add the ore into the opening at the top of the chimney.

I'm so glad to know they are huge because thinking they were only ten feet tall had me wondering what kind of midget fences that was on the front then

Ate those things only 10 feet tall in the picture? O_O they just look so big 
 

I love your photos I didn't know furnaces could be made that big either O_O they look like the size of mountains?! Or is the scale showing up bigger than it actually is in the picture? No I guess that can't be it because in that one picture there's a tall fence so they really are the size of mountains O_O 

Those are just too good wow! It's so nice you got pictures of the old farm too it brings back memories of being a kid and visiting Me and mum would visit for two weeks every Summer. It's so sad they sold it :<
