An envisioning. 1950 and mid August with cocktail hour coming on at Erskiniana Manor.

Oh to be here.

A pitcher of something to mix up, as soon as one of the recipes in the booklet that came stuck to the back of the Bacardi bottle looks pretty. That, and needing one that matches whatever frozen juice colors are in the freezer section of the fridge.

Bits and pieces of life long gone by that may or may not still be part of someone’s holiday villa. Imagery from an illustrated supplement to “Armorial of Jersey: being an account, heraldic and antiquarian, of its chief native families, with pedigrees, biographical notices, and illustrative data; to which are added a brief history of heraldry, and remarks on the mediaeval antiquities of the island.” Published between 1859 and 1865, written by James Bertrand Payne.

Royal arms ornamenting the walls of Elizabeth Castle: It will be noticed that the ensigns of England are here supported with the lion and a dragon, which last was first borne by Henry VII. as the bearing of Cadwallader, the last king of the Britons, from whom he boasted his descent. James J. was the first monarch who bore the lion and unicorn as supporters. So the coat of arms used before 1603 when James VI of Scotland inherited the crown of England from Elizabeth I and so became king of England too.

This work has a lot of images of coats of arms, too not just this last one that I picked up because I like the dog. Mentioned in case someone would like to look at those.

An envisioning. 2011, July, and early morning approaching the crack of dawn as the mosquitoes start to whine at the townhouse on Alexandrine Bay.

Oh to be here.

Another travel mug of iced coffee with half a chug of half and half and two spoonfuls of Demerara sugar. The last being a bit too healthy, what with being accustomed to food that doesn’t have a picture of the farm it grew up on. But no sacks of Domino sugar for miles. The only shop you can walk to being more like the essence of Whole Foods crossed with a hippie-era patchouli oil vendor instead of a regular supermarket.

The house is still there. It turns up on Redfin which states that it was built in 1955 so photographed right after it was built though whether for the architects or the owners I don’t know. These images (and more with them, 22 in all) are archived as part of a collection of Dearborn-Massar photographs. They were professional architectural photographers in the Pacific Northwest during the period 1943-1963.

With some of these the bedrooms and bathrooms weren’t photographed because they were private spaces as opposed to patio bars, carports and living rooms. I expect that is why there are no photographs of them.
