As with way too much of the U.S.A., today and for the past several days our landscape is monochromatic - AKA - Black & White.
As can be seen


Richmond, Indiana.
from a inside second story window.
At this mid morning moment, outside it is: Temperature is -2 F + Wind Chill = -19F.

Needles to say, as much as possible, we remain inside close to a portable heater.

Keep recalling : This will soon pass - and Spring with a colorful landscape will return.


Richmond, Indiana.
Till then - stay warm and continue to think -SPRING

While the weather outside remains cold, the temperature has warmed to 15F. Along with a spot of sunshine, folks are beginning to get out and about.


Richmond, Indiana.

Personally, will wait a bit until snow begins to melt away. See no need to rush it, as have plenty of reading to catch up on, ever so many sporting events to watch in addition to enough groceries and coffee to last till March.

Off course, all the above depends on the electric power to continuing. So far it has. Let's hope it continues.

Stay Warm - Coming soon to your Neighborhood -

SPRING.​

Young America is an unincorporated community, 11 miles west of Galveston on state route18, in Cass County, Indiana with a 2025 population of 375 and a poverty rate of 33.22%.

In 1856, Thomas Henry built a saw mill in a community of a few cabins and farms. When some machinery arrived for the mill several townsmen gathered to help unload it. A nameplate on one of the engines, designating either the engine or model "Young America" was noticed. A worker suggested that was a good name for the community. Two-thirds of the workmen agreed and called their town Young America.

The town has no industry and never had a railroad or interurban. The main center-of-town crossroad is a junction of state Route 18 and the Poplar Grove north-south road.

However, there is one standing abandoned red brick building.


Young America, Indiana.

The Building's headstone identifies it as once it was a Fraternal of Brotherhood - Lodge Hall.

For what's worth: Check out right center of image and you know this was taken in Indiana. For even, in a very small community with very little to offer, there is a BB hoop.

Gettysburg is a declining village located in Darke County, Ohio with a 2026 population of 462.
Now closed, it was once the home of Petersime Brood-Units.


Gettysburg, Ohio.

The origins of Petersime date back to the year 1912, when Mr Petersime invented the very first electric incubator in the United States.
In the 1920s, the first models of this incubator were produced in the US and exported to Europe.

In 1949, an agreement was concluded between the American exporter and Mr Bohez from Olsene, Belgian who started producing the incubators under license. 1949 saw the establishment of the Belgian company Petersime NV. The year 1968 marked the end of this license agreement. The name “Petersime” was kept and soon became a symbol of leadership in the European markets and in the Middle East. In 1984, the company was taken over by an international investment group.

Now headquartered in Belgium with offices in Brazil, China, Russia, Malaysia and India.
