For the price this was a pretty good campground. We were here over a weekend so it was very crowded. There are water outlets available at several locations, but not at every site. The restrooms/showers were clean but getting outdated. The sites were on grass so getting level was a little bit of a problem, but not serious. We would probably not stay here again. - SteveCampsTx

Beautiful park with 3 different campground areas. Most sites are quite large with grass everywhere. There were lots of pull-through sites. The camping area is next to the lake and several sites can park near the lake. We paid $15 for one night. There is a dump facility within the park but none at the campsite. We would stay here again. - Frank M

This is a beautiful park. The restrooms could use some work. The paint is peeling in the showers. Insect repellant is a must have, as the mosquitoes and other insects are great in number. The park has lots of shade. The fire ring has an adjustable grill, which was very nice for cooking. Bring your old tennis shoes or water shoes so you can walk in the creek off canyon road. It is great fun for the kids and nice to cool off in the summer. It is a bit of a hike down then up from the creek if the road is closed due to heavy rain. If the road is open, you can drive it and go over several bridges covered by water. Would definitely stay here again if we come back to the area. - Fam of 5
Jul 2015 - $16.00
Park has lots of shades. Some sites are fairly level while others require boards or such for leveling. Also, what is not indicated anywhere and no one will tell you is, if there is much rain received, multiple sites flood. Bugs can be quite bad so bring bug spray. Bathrooms are in poor condition and not kept up at all. This is a very popular campground and the surroundings are pretty, its too bad that the facilities are not improved (though I have been told renovations are in the planning stages). I understand old, but not being cleaned properly with the amount of use the bath house receives is disgusting. There is a place to fill water and many sites have electric. The dump is near the entrance. We have camped here for many nights, due to location being close to family.
Nice for walking (spray for bugs). - JonesAussies

Love this park. Stayed 2 nights. Restrooms were closed so used my own. Electric at site. Fill tank from hydrant and dump on way out. Lots of wildlife. Great sites. Not many RV parks open this time of year. Only problem is too many cares driving through. - camperbrave

My wife and I have camped at Spring Lake several times and have always enjoyed our stay. This lake is great for people who like to kayak and use paddle boats. The lake is not very deep. Most of the camp sights are on the lake. This park is great for kids. If you like to go berry hunting in the spring, this park is great for that. I found about 1 pint of black raspberries yesterday. Should be better next week. Spring Lake is well run by the county, very clean, sight are mostly level. They are grass. - Joceil

This place is a blast from the past. The roller rink is the center of activity in the evenings. Our family opened and closed the roller rink both nights we were there. It is first come first serve, however, that was not a problem for us. We arived at 8:00 PM on a Friday night and had our pick of many good sites. - Cornboy

We found this park because Ledges State Park was full. It's a small camp, but nicely shaded with big trees. Power pedestals are shared between units, as is water. There are also two non-electric sites, $11. Sites are mostly grass, no gravel or pad, so it could be dicey in wet weather. Picnic tables and fire rings provided. This is a family campground, mostly locals, and friendly. - BridgeInRV

The lower campsites have had a major upgrade. Now widely spaced, the sites have clearly defined picnic and fire ring areas. Most of the newly seeded grass is taking well. The lower sites now have electricity too, but no trees. This lower area can flood when the reservoir fills in wet years. We stayed in the upper camp ground with gravel roads, gravel sites, well-used fire rings, and lovely mature trees. Our site was completely level. The park's trails make a pleasant and quiet hike, the gold course borders the park, the fishing pond is tiny, the children's natural playground is wonderful, and the bison and elk viewing area is newly improved. Verizon phone and wifi coverage was strong. We will return. - AluminumCloud
Oct 2013 - $19.00
One of my favorite local county parks. The gravel sites are level, many with really large grass areas. Each site features a roomy level gravel patio with picnic table and fire ring. We enjoy a nice campfire, and most sites have one every night. I will return. The county park has many trails, with cell phone tour information. Also ranger lead educational hikes are available, occasionally. Neat children's nature center with nice new bison and elk viewing area. The upper campsites have electricity with water available, while the sites on the lake are dry camping due to seasonal flooding. The nearby Equestrian Center is a nice place to reserve horse for their trail rides. - AluminumCloud
Aug 2011 - $10.00
This is our home campground close to Des Moines and is a lovely one, equal to many of the top state campgrounds we have visited in our travels. Seniors pay half price from Sunday night thru Thursday night. Located on the Des Moines river down from an Army Corps lake, this park has good RV and tent sites. Clean, well-kept, great security and good camp hosts. Often has sites midweek, but book ahead for electric sites on weekends. Nice hiking trails. - User2225

Nanotechnology Could Improve Satellites, Solar Cells
Scientists at the NanoPower Research Labs at Rochester Institute of Technology, led by director Ryne Raffaelle, are using nanotechnology to explore this possibility through a project funded by an $847,109 grant from the U.S. Department of Defense. The project aims to take current state-of-the-art solar cells used for space power to the next level by developing nanostructured materials and, ultimately, by producing nanostructured cells.

NEW YORK Wall Street rose on Friday on signs of progress in talks about releasing aid to Greece and as investors bid up retail shares on hopes consumers will scoop up bargains on Black Friday, which heralds the start of the holiday shopping season.
U.S. equity market trading will end early at 1:00 pm ET (1800 GMT) after closing Thursday for the Thanksgiving holiday. With many investors on holiday, trade volume got off to a slow start.
Greece said the International Monetary Fund had relaxed its debt-cutting target for the country, suggesting lenders were closer to a deal for a vital aid tranche to be paid. But other sources involved in the talks cautioned the funding gap was far bigger than Greece has suggested.
Euro zone finance ministers, the IMF and European Central Bank (ECB) failed earlier this week to agree on how to get the country's debt down to a sustainable level and will have a third attempt at resolving the issue on Monday.
"Anything positive out of Europe related to the sovereign debt ... that can act as a catalyst," said Todd Salamone, director of research at Schaeffer's Investment Research in Cincinnati, Ohio.
The S&P 500 looked likely to break a two-week losing streak, having gained more than 3 percent this week so far. Stocks had tumbled earlier in the month on worries about the impact of tax and spending changes to take effect from January, but hopes that politicians will reach a deal to avert the so-called fiscal cliff helped the market recoup some of those declines this week.
The index also broke back above the 1,400 level, which could provide support.
The Dow Jones industrial average gained 112.71 points, or 0.88 percent, to 12,949.60. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose 12.34 points, or 0.89 percent, to 1,403.37. The Nasdaq Composite Index climbed 30.32 points, or 1.04 percent, to 2,956.88.
The retail sector rose as investors looked for signs of how much consumers are spending as stores lured them with Black Friday deals and discounts.
Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, kicks off the U.S. Christmas shopping season for retailers and is often the busiest shopping day of the year. The National Retail Federation expects sales during the holiday season to grow 4.1 percent this year.
Shares of electronics retailer Best Buy Co (BBY.N) were up 1.6 percent at $11.76, while J C Penney (JCP.N) gained 1.6 percent to $17.53.
Big-name technology companies also climbed as investors added to positions on a day of thin trading.
Microsoft (MSFT.O) helped lift the Nasdaq, gaining 1.7 percent to $27.41, while Oracle ORCL.O rose 1.2 percent to $30.76.
"Anyone that was on the sidelines waiting for a pullback like the one we just had in some of the tech names, they're looking for any glimpse of strong price action for permission to enter into those (stocks)," said Salamone.
Research in Motion RIMM.O surged on optimism about its soon-to-be-launched BlackBerry 10 devices that will vie against Apple's (AAPL.O) iPhone and Android-based smartphones. RIM was up 12 percent at $11.49.

I was 16 years old at the time, however I am fairly tall for my age and appear to be older than I really am, not that that should make ANY difference. I was taking the train to downtown Toronto by myself and walking to a little place called Kensington Market to meet my mother and sister who were already downtown. It was about a 15 minute walk from the train station and I felt confident walking alone downtown. As I was nearing the market I see a man riding his bicycle coming in my direction. I am a pretty polite girl so I simply smiled back at the man. As the man rode closer on his bike he seemed to be leaning closer to me and when he passed by he leaned ever further and TRIED TO KISS ME while he passed me on his damn bike! I totally did not see this coming and I was in complete shock. Sure I am used to getting cat calls very often but I have never experienced something like this. I had no idea what to do. I simply just kind of stood there in shock not knowing wether to cry or scream. I couldn't do much either way because the man had simply continued to bike passed me like nothing had happened. It was disgusting and I will never forget.
I was in London on business, for the first time I'd come by myself. Once finished I went to the Westfield Shopping Centre at 3 in the afternoon. I was wearing a shirt that was buttoned all the way up, not that it should matter in the slightest. Two guys started walking either side of me in the middle of the shopping centre, one yelled, 'Great boobs', whilst the other made growling noises. I felt really intimidated and upset, and ended up going home shortly after. Mostly I felt humiliated, there were lots of people around, no one said anything to these men. This is one story of so many incidents I've experienced.

Hey Hollas!
This week was shorter, but the movement was more fierce than ever! At Hollaback! HQ we are having a lot of fun preparing for our End of the Year Campaign, and you'll see what we are talking about very soon! This week we had a great Twitter chat on #SayftyChat discussing street harassment. We also learned so many things about Macedonia from Natasha, our IREX Fellow.
And at Hollaback! around the world:
Hollaback! Ottawa gave a lecture to a Carleton University class on Social Marketing, about their work and how they use grassroots, DIY techniques to "recruit" and raise awareness (i.e.: chalk walks, wheat pasting, attending ComicCon, etc.).
Hollaback! Italia chose Nov 25th, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, to reveal the results of the survey in partnership with Cornell University. They were featured in several online magazines among which Marie Claire. Way to go Italy!
Hollaback! Poland is taking part in the 16 Days of Action Against Gender Based Violence campaign. They started an education campaign on consent. Always on point Poland!
Hollaback! Cuenca held the First Day Against Street Harassment with the title "Street Harassment as a Socially Accepted Form of Violence" at the University of Cuenca, with talks, discussions, presentation of their first report on street harassment in Cuenca, and launch of the Hollaback! application. They were even featured in the media! This is amazing beyond words Cuenca!
Hollaback! London had a talk on street harassment at WAGfest, London Bike Kitchen free workshop for women and gender-variant people.
Hollaback! Vegas published Issue #3 of The League of Extraordinary Feminists. If you wanna check out this amazing zine by these kick-ass youth volunteers, write to them!
Stay tuned for more awesomeness next week!
Holla and out!
I was victimized horrifically by a subway sex abuser earlier this fall, on the E train during the morning rush. It was probably the most humiliating and degrading moment of my life. That day the platform was extra crowded because of delays, and so to avoid being late, I had to squeeze on behind this large lady. I barely made it on myself, so I was irritated when, as the doors were whooshing shut, this young man shoe-horns himself in behind me. His body was plastered against mine, and I could feel his junk crushed against my behind. But I thought it was an accident. When I craned to look behind me, he was a nicely dressed, pretty good looking white guy who didn't seem like he'd have trouble getting dates. I figured he was probably even more embarrassed at our awkward situation than I was. So I ignored it – at first.
As the train rumbles along, and my butt bounces against him, he starts sprouting this huge erection right in the crack of my ass. Using the motion of the train as an excuse, he keeps poking it in as deep he could. I thought, I am being dry humped against my will in the middle of a bunch of people! Totally disgusted, I tried moving forward, but the big woman wouldn't budge, in fact she elbowed me. When the train pulled into the next station, I prayed people would get off, but just the opposite happened. A wave of new passengers shoved on, and the pervert squashed against me even tighter. The train took off again, rocking back and forth, and it felt like I had a thick wooden broomstick wedged between my buttocks.
I thought of screaming, "Get off me, jerk," but I was too embarrassed and didn't want to make a scene. The next stop was in about ten minutes and I told myself I could stand it that long. Then, of all the freaking luck, the train STOPPED between stations for about 5 minutes. You'd think maybe this slimy creep would stop without the movement of the car giving him cover, but he actually became more aggressive, brazenly thrusting way up in between my cheeks. I was so shocked and paralyzed with fear, I could hardly breathe. And then the most horrible part. The vile piece of shit leans in and whispers in my ear in this creepy little voice, "If my girlfriend knew we were doing this, she'd kill me."
That was almost worse than anything, because it made it sound like I was his partner in his sick act. The train finally moved again, and I guess my assailant realized I wasn't going to do anything, so he just started POUNDING, very hard and fast. By this point I had my head down and my eyes were watering. I felt completely worthless. For all intents and purposes, I was being anally raped through my skirt. Well, I guess you can figure what happened next: He tensed up, his penis lashed around behind me for a few seconds, then I felt a wetness on my butt. I hoped it was my imagination, but when I got off the train and reached back, I was repulsed to feel the slimy gook. I hastily wiped it off with a Kleenex, but the whole time at work I couldn't concentrate because I hoped no one would notice.
Later at home, I told my boyfriend what happened and he was livid. He said I "clearly" must have done something to "encourage" the bastard, and that if I wasn't enjoying it, I would have stepped on the guy's foot or screamed. His not being supportive is one reason I am having a hard time getting over this traumatizing experience.
I've spotted the nasty train molester 3 times since the incident. Once grinding another woman and twice just standing nonchalantly on the platform. The scumbag didn't appear to recognize me. I guess I was just one of hundreds, maybe thousands, he'd used to relieve himself.
Walking my dog at 10 o'clock, apparently the new things is to have speakers installed on the outside your car and a microphone so you can more anonymously make women uncomfortable enemy you pull up beside them and cat call, backing up slowly add we walk past. Uncomfortable enough that I went and got my boyfriend and you immediately felt scared off and decided to leave me alone. Leaving me wishing I had confronted you myself, because my martial arts training means I probably could've kicked your ass myself, but I don't feel that kind of confidence.

Someone ran up behind me and forcefully groped my bottom while I was walking home. I have a stun gun but couldn't get him before he skateboarded away. He was wearing a black coat with a camo hoodie underneath and the skateboard was black.

While with a group of friends (four other women and four men), a male (wouldn't call him a man) approached us and said, "I see a lot of pussies here." He continued talking about our vaginas, so one friend and I screamed at him to leave us alone. Several strangers were around and didn't help us out, but finally told the server at the stand we were at to call the police. The person harassing us continued to make sexual comments at us. He then began calling me fat and ugly and walked away, but not before I snapped a picture of him and shared it with my mother, who works with the Oakland Police Department. We were all angry and disgusted by this harassment.

Holla and out!
I was outisde a starbucks, on the phone with my mother of all people, when a group of 3 men in a car pulled up and said "hey cigarette girl" and when i didn't respond they persisted with "what, you don't like blacks?" It was dark outside, i was on my own, and i'm 14. It scared me and ruined my day.

Walking home at around 2 in the afternoon I was verbally attacked for no reason at all by a woman and her young daughters. I was a block away from my house and they started calling me a "raggedy ann bitch" repeatedly and yelling at me to get out. They continued to taunt me but I didn't react, just continued walking. I crossed the street and apparently crossed into their 'territory' or something because there were two more young girls on the corner who stared straight at me and yelled at me for being a "raggedy ann bitch." I continue walking, getting upset and yelled back to stop at which point the mother yelled at me for talking back and threatened to beat me with a brick that she had picked up. The entire family began to follow me at a distance at this point and I yelled back to leave me alone, fuck off, and stop following me. They continued at which point I tried to call a friend but her phone was dead. When they saw me get out my phone they made comments about what was I doing trying to call someone to get out of their territory etc. Finally I got to my house (in a gated community) and locked the gate behind me. Two of the daughters come up to the gate a minute later and started yelling at me that I was a bitch at which point I yelled back at full force to fuck off. One of the girls then got down and went under the car gate and started following me through the complex! I started walking towards a man in a van inside and waving at him to help me but he ignored me. I had also tried to get the attention of a cyclist earlier who continued on as well. Finally the girl turned around and left and By the time I got to my apartment I was shaking and crying.
I just couldnt believe that they started verbally abusing me like that for no apparent reason, and that it was an entire family of women involved as well! I am so upset and scared to leave my house and run into them again because I don't know what they will do if they recognize me. I just wish someone who had witnessed this happening to me had stood up for me as well…

FAA CLEEN Awards $125 Million in New Contracts
The FAA has announced it has awarded $125 million in new contracts with GE Aviation, Honeywell, Pratt & Whitney, Boeing and Rolls Royce to develop aircraft and engine technologies that reduce noise and emissions and improve fuel burn, according to an agency press release.
The awards are part of the Continuous Lower Energy, Emissions and Noise (CLEEN) program, which seeks to develop and demonstrate new technologies, procedures, and alternative fuels that help the agency meet its environmental and efficiency goals. These goals include reducing fuel burn by 33 percent, reducing landing and takeoff nitrogen oxide emissions by 60 percent over the 2004 International Civil Aviation Organization standard without increasing other emissions, reducing noise levels by 32 dB relative to the current noise standard; and increasing use of more sustainable jet fuels, with transition strategies that don't require significant aircraft or engine modification.
The FAA's goal is to begin incorporate these new technologies into the U.S. aviation fleet by 2015.
The largest contract has gone to GE Aviation, which will share an investment of $66 million with the FAA for five years, while Honeywell will share a $27 million contract with the FAA, also for five years. Boeing will share a $25 million contract with the agency.
GE's contract will focus on the development of three of the company's aviation technologies: its TAPS II Combustor, Open Rotor and Flight Management System – Air Traffic Management (FMS-ATM) technologies. The FMS-ATM technology, which is part of GE's ecomagination initiative, will enable commercial aircraft to routinely fly more optimum trajectories resulting in less fuel, emissions and noise. According to the company press release, FMS-ATM has the potential to increase fuel efficiency by 5 – 15 percent. The company is working on the technology with Lockheed Martin, and plans to test the system on Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 aircraft this year to demonstrate the environmental benefits.
GE recently reported that the company generated $18 billion in revenue from its ecomagination products.
Honeywell, meanwhile, will be using its award to develop its TECH7000 turbofan, based on the company's HTF7000 propulsion engine, with a mandate to develop technology for Fuel Burn Reduction and test aviation biofuels. The company has developed technology to convert sources like algae and camelina into jet fuel which meets all and offer significant savings in greenhouse gas emissions. Honeywell said it will be working with General Dynamics Corporation, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) on the contract. The US Air Force recently awarded a unit of General Dynamics an $18.5 million contract this month to develop a greener jet engine.
Boeing will be testing and developing its adaptive wing trailing edges and ceramic matrix composite acoustic engine nozzles aboard two demonstration vehicles, a Next-Generation Boeing 737 in 2012, with a second series of test flights aboard a yet-to-be-determined twin-aisle airplane in 2013.
Adaptive trailing edges pertain to a collection of small controllable devices that are integrated into the aft portion of the wing. Most traditional wings are designed for best performance while at cruise, and have performance compromises during other flight phases. Adaptive trailing edges can help tailor the wing configuration to reduce fuel burn at takeoff, climb and cruise, and to reduce community noise at takeoff and landing.
Ceramic matrix composites offer the potential of better thermal and structural performance, while helping to reduce weight and acoustic footprint.
Boeing recently said it is on track to meet its 2012 environmental targets.
EADS, meanwhile, recently flew a plane powered by a biofuel made entirely from algae, the world's first such aircraft, and signed a deal with an Argentinean biofuels supplier to further evaluate the potential for an algae-based biofuel.

Wiremu Reid is a role model to many of his peers.
The Ranfurly sharemilker recently won the 2014 Ahuwhenua Young Maori Dairy Farmer of the Year Award - a title that will look pretty impressive on his CV.
"For me it's not about the prizes, but being an ambassador for the industry," Reid said.
While many 25-year-olds are travelling the world or still deciding what to do for a career, Reid is making his mark in the dairy industry.
He and his partner, Bettina Tolich, and their two sons - William, 5, and Manu, 18 months - moved to the Maniototo in Central Otago in early June.
They will 50 per cent sharemilk 1150 cows this season for Rodney Humphries and Monica Blaser and expect to produce about 440,000 kilograms of milk solids on 355 hectares.
The farm is irrigated with both centre pivot and K-line irrigation.
"It's going to be a real learning curve getting used to the irrigation," Reid said.
Reid spent his first four years in Whangarei, which he still calls home, before shifting south to the Hundred Line, near Winton, with his sharemilking parents Bill and Kate and his four siblings in 1994.
He returned to Whangarei to finish his schooling.
In 2009, he and Tolich returned to Southland to manage his parents' 450-cow farm for two years before taking up a 750-cow job at Kuana, near Winton.
This was followed by time spent managing an 800-cow farm at Methven in Mid Canterbury.
"We would have stayed there if we had a lower-order job. We really enjoyed it up there," Reid said.
It was while working on Stephen and Janet Pope's 650-cow farm at Otapiri as a lower-order sharemilker that Reid was encouraged to enter the Young Maori Dairy Farmer of the Year competition.
His friend Tangaroa Walker, also from Southland, had won the same award two years ago and urged him to give it a go, as did Primary ITO training adviser Michelle Phelan.
"She thought it was a great opportunity to get my name out there," he said.
Reid was assessed on a range of skills and attributes which included his commitment to farming, training and education - he is studying towards a Bachelor of Agribusiness Management - his community involvement and plans for the future.
"I was honoured and humbled to win the award," he said.
The couple spotted their current job on internet site Fencepost and said it instantly appealed to them.
"It meant we could have all of our cows with us.
"We have also bought another 400 cows," Tolich said.
Reid's parents have also made the move to the Maniototo to assist with the running of the farm.
His siblings are silent partners in the business.
"They have helped me get my foot in the door," he said.
Reid and 's herd is very young - few of the cows are older than five years - and they will be busy getting them used to the 70-bale rotary cowshed this coming spring.
The couple will employ four full-time staff this season and say they are still looking to fill a positions.
Their goal is to continue building equity in their stock and to get involved in an equity partnership or buy a run-off block within the next few years.

The new home of
Devon''s status as ''The English Riviera'' is well earned and is testimony to the popularity of this holiday destination, which attracts thousands of visitors every year who come to enjoy its special charms.
The county is blessed with two coastlines which are dotted with picturesque fishing ports and mile after mile of clean sandy beaches. The interior consists of a striking contrast of dramatic moorland that includes the Dartmoor National Park and a patchwork of green leafy lanes that criss-cross the region.
Dartmoor actually has two national parks as well as five areas of outstanding natural beauty, a UNESCO World Heritage site, Geopark and Biosphere Reserve. It's also famous as the location for Conan Doyle's 'Hound of the Baskervilles'. It has 368 square miles of windswept, dramatic and uncrowded moors to enjoy!
The English Riviera; Torquay, Paignton and Brixham, are a magnet for those looking for a seaside holiday with lots of attractions and activities for all ages. It also has a rich maritime history, plenty of sporting events and water sports activities.
South Devon is characterised by gentle rolling hills and a lovely coastline, offering easy walks, country pubs and great restaurants, while the northern coast has superb surfing beaches. Exmoor in north Devon is perfect for moorland walks, mountain biking and has wonderful natural beauty.
The many facets of Devon provide visitors with a wide choice of holiday options and lots of top quality visitor attractions and days out, such as the Dartmouth Steam Railway and The National Marine Aquarium; too many to mention here.
Of note is Woolacombe Beach, one of the jewels in Devon's crown with three miles of golden sand of Blue Flag status and the Tarka Trail; its 30 miles forms a figure-of-eight and follows the path the brave otter takes in Henry Williamson's beloved novel.
If you fancy walking on the wild side why not take a trip to one of Devon's many animal attractions? The zoo at Paignton offers an array of exotic creatures and makes for a wonderful day out, while the Totnes Rare Breeds Farm is also very popular with families.
Devon offers a wealth of holiday opportunities so if you're ready for a break take a look at our selection of holiday cottages in Devon.

Nestling in countryside, just on the outskirts of the vibrant, riverside town of Dartmouth, Lower Collaton is a hidden gem of an old homestead farm, dating back to the Domesday Book. Here there are 3 converted barns which offer super holiday accommodation, lying just across the courtyard from the owners' ancient farmhouse. The owners keep a handful of pedigree Jacob and Shetland sheep, which graze the surrounding meadows. Chickens roam freely in the pretty courtyard to the front of the barns. The Stables is a detached stone barn, with delightful living accommodation for 4 people, with high vaulted ceilings, exposed trusses and a woodburner in the living room. The Old Granary is tucked away in the corner of the grassy courtyard and is a little cosy nest for 2 people. Compact, detached and cosy, it was imaginatively designed by the owners' daughter. The Byre is where the milking parlour used to be, and in the living room the names of the cows are displayed on the original manger name plaques. This property, which sleeps 4 people, has a living room with spectacular vaulted ceilings and the original scissor beams. The area is surrounded by rolling hills in the tranquil valley of the River Gara, midway between Totnes, Dartmouth and Kingsbridge making it a perfect location for exploring this beautiful region of South Devon. From the moors of Dartmoor to the shores of the South Devon coast, there is much to do in the region. Spend a day shopping and eating in the historic naval town of Dartmouth, or explore the many beaches and coves along the beautiful coastline. There is plenty to do in the area: Woodlands Country Park is ideal for the children, or you can walk along the South Devon Coastal Path, catch a ferry across the river at Dartmouth to Kingswear, and then take a steam train along the estuary to Greenway and Paignton. There are boat trips along the coast from Dartmouth to the busier resorts of Torquay and Paignton on the English Riviera.

National Trust Holiday PropertyThe Watch Tower is a quirky holiday home, entered through a large wooden door in the side of Compton Castle, a fascinating building built into the curtain wall. From the moment you drive through the gates to this imposing castle, you feel like the lord and lady of the manor. The property is arranged over three floors and this holiday cottage has been carefully converted, retaining much of the character of this exceptional historic building. The castle is only open to the public from May to the end of October and is only open for three days a week, so there is a lot of private time at the castle. There are wonderful gardens to explore and the history is amazing. Compton is just three miles from inviting anchorage at Torbay, so would have been in the front line of any Spanish invasion. As Vice-Admiral of Devon, Compton Castle's Sir John Gilbert (1533-96) played a leading part in marshalling ships, men and supplies to meet the Armada in 1588, while Sir John's brothers provided ships for the English fleet. The fleet commanders, Sir Frances Drake and Sir John Hawkins, were both Devon men; their defeat of the Spanish Armada was one of the proudest moments in Devon's maritime history. A rare survivor, this medieval fortress with high curtain walls, towers and a portcullis, set in a landscape of rolling hills and orchards, is a bewitching mixture of romance and history. Home for nearly 600 years to the Gilbert family, including Sir Humphrey Gilbert - half-brother to Sir Walter Raleigh. There are many other places to visit close by, including Dartmoor with its dramatic tors and ponies, as well as Torquay, Paignton, Brixham and Dartmouth which are worth a visit, and many other National Trust properties close by. Beach 8 miles. Shop 1 mile, pub 4 miles and restaurant 100 yards.
Bathroom with over-bath shower (no toilet). Separate toilet. Steep, narrow stairs to first floor (rope handrail): Double bedroom. Steep, narrow stairs to second floor (rope handrail): Cosy open-plan living/dining room with electric woodburner and kitchen area.
Ideally located within the heart of the historic village of Hartland on the breathtaking North Devon Coast, The Garden Cottage is the perfect cosy, romantic retreat or coastal escape at any time of year, and a breakfast pack is available on request (at cost). Adjoining the owner's home, this pretty cottage sits within the gardens of their grand Georgian house, originally built for the local doctor. This is a walkers paradise, with dramatic coastal walks and 17,000 acres in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for you to explore. With everything on your doorstep, it is the perfect spot to unwind and recharge your batteries in this welcoming North Devon village which was the backdrop for the TV series, 'The Night Manager'. The cottage is close to two village pubs, village shops with local produce, pretty craft shops, coffee shop and galleries; it is a taste of the good old days. The coastal path and the pretty beach at Hartland Quay is just 2 miles and the famous surfing beaches of Westward Ho! and Bude are an easy drive. There are numerous National Trust properties in the area, as well as the RHS gardens at Rosemoor and Docton Mill. Hartland Abbey is well worth a visit, along with many other local beauty spots including Bucks Mills and Clovelly or hire a bike and explore the nearby Tarka Trail. Being situated right on the border in Hartland of Devon and Cornwall makes this ideal for exploring the far south west coastline or the perfect spot for surfing with Widemouth Bay and Puttsborough beaches within easy reach.

These fabulous apartments, with stunning views across the Exe estuary (Portland has limited views), were once the home of Captain George Peacock who constructed the Panama canal and they provide the ideal base for a really relaxing holiday. Easily accessible by road, rail and water, they sit opposite a small railway station and ferry port to Exmouth's two miles of golden sands and traditional resort facilities. The fine beach and nature reserve at Dawlish Warren are 2 miles whilst sightseeing and shopping in the cathedral city of Exeter are 7 miles. The surrounding countryside is particularly good for walking and cycling – nearby Haldon Forest is criss-crossed with trails and there is even a cycle track to Exeter from Regent House itself, Exe trail cycleway – and the Exe estuary is great for sailing, windsurfing and all manner of water sports, with tuition for all levels of ability. Powderham Castle is within walking distance, visit the castle, farm shop and check out the events held there including classic car rally, food fayres and concerts. Golf courses are also close by. Floating restaurant at Exmouth is well worth a visit, booking advisable. Guided bird watching cruises are available, river cruises run all year and Jurassic Coast cruises in summer. Some of Devon's famed resorts – Budleigh Salterton, Seaton and Sidmouth as well as the 'English Riviera' resorts of Torquay, Paignton and Brixham – and Dartmoor National Park's rugged beauty are a little further afield. Shops and a pub serving food are within a 5-minute stroll.

Electric heaters, electricity and air conditioning included. Fridge/freezer. Parking (1 car). NB: This property does not have a bedroom.

Wow, even as one of the world's most ancient artifacts of literature, you despise the book of Daniel? Do you hate the Vedas, too, or is it just a Christian grudge?
The Book of Daniel is not that old. There are many artifacts from the same period it was written. The oldest Vedas for example are much older in origin.

Gorgeous Lynn, a fave!
Lynn, this is absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for the info, too!
My mouth is watering! Lovely, Lynn!
I love it!
Thank you for web link! Info is very useful. I love vintage looking jewelry. Your bracelet is just beautiful!
Thank you girls, I seem to love the purple color lately.
This is so pretty Lynn (I saw it on your website too!). SLS
P.S. Purple does RULE, doesn't it??! SLS
this is soooo pretty
Lynn, this is so pretty! Love the colors!
I'm not much of a purple gal but I do love the look of this bracelet. (My colors are autumn. I look like a dead lemon in purple.)
I love it!!!
Beautiful, reminds me of rock candy!!
Lynn, this is a beautiful bracelet — love the purple, and the overall feel — these are beads i'd love to touch
Oh thanks everyone
Hi Lynn! This bracelet is wonderful. I love the colors of the fluorite and the cones that you used. What an exquisite piece. Also, thank you for the article address. I will have to check it out. Take care.
Lynn, this bracelet is so lovely and delicate! I also love purple and vintage jewelry. Thanks for the link to the article!
Very beautiful Lynn, I love florite, in fact I have quite a bit of it and haven't made anything with it for a very long time.. after seeing your bracelet perhaps I'll have to get into my florite tub and play with them hoping of course to be inspired..
Florite is one of my favs and so is this beautiful job.
Love it! Rainbow Fluorite is my mom's favorite, because it is all of her favorite colors, so I always keep some on hand for her. I love the cones, too.
Thanks, I always have so much Fluorite hanging around, I probably can make 50 0f these.
Just lovely Lynn!
'Berry' beautiful, Lynn! Great design, and I love the fluorite with the brass!
