Low head dam, aka Weir, across War Eagle Creek, used to divert water to the gristmill on the near shore.

Fun2BHere, if the mountains you photographed with Palm Springs in the photo are north of Palm Springs, then they are most likely the San Bernardino Mountains. The San Jacinto Mountains are right next to Palm Springs, to the southwest and cast shadows over the city in the late afternoon. You are probably right about the Santa Ana Mountains, but it is very rare for them to have snow, since they are much lower in elevation than the San Gabriel Mountains. I'm not that familiar with Orange County, however. But the San Gabriel Mountains are probably too far from Newport Beach for that view.

Nickel_kg, Thank you for your comment. Yes only 70 years ago. This is how they built houses there for hundreds of years. Many are still intact. Unfortunately not his. Since the early 1990's our relatives there who had looked after the house left for greener pastures. The missing stones were used elsewhere in the village to build other structures.

Jrb, unfortunately not very long. She laid eggs and they weren't fertile. ( She laid one while sitting on my shoulder, and it broke when it hit the floor). Not long after that, I found a pigeon under an underpass that had been hit by a car. He was injured, but recovered, and could fly but ended up blind in one eye. (I think I named him Junior). Anyway, they mated and had 2 babies. Hue was outside and a hawk got her. Junior continued raising the babies. I put them outside in a large cage and began feeding a flock of wild pigeons. When the wild ones were used to coming for food, I released Junior and the babies, and they joined the flock. I've raised several pigeons, including one named Checkers that I found in a trash can at Lowe's, completely covered in tar.

Ord River Dam - an attempt to turn the Northern Territory into a food bowl by capturing the highly seasonal monsoonal rains. Let us just say it hasn't worked exactly as planned: the initial crop, rice, was devoured by magpie geese and they've been trying different crops ever since.
