Beneath the Flags
I think the thing that surprises me most about the Lake Placid Olympic ice rinks is how *small* they are in comparison to (e.g.) Rochester's ice arena. It's understandable that attendance would be limited back in 1932 due to the expense and difficulty of travel, but not in 1980. Still, Salt Lake City's ice arena is of a similar size... -

U.S.S. Constitution
The USS Constitution was first set afloat in Boston in 1797. Notariaty came with the War of 1812, where she gained the nickname "Old Ironsides" for her oak hull's ability to deflect the British frigate "HMS Guerriere's" cannonfire. The ship has been preserved not only as a heritige icon, but also as a training vessel for Navy sailing staff. At nearly 217 years old (2014), she is the oldest commissioned warship in the U.S. Navy. -

Vintage Graffiti
Circa 1961, if the carved date is to be believed. I'd believe it -- it certainly looked weathered enough to be over fifty years old... -
