Historical Perspective

Cradled by Pennsylvania’s Allegheny Mountains, 70 miles easterly of Pittsburgh, Johnstown is an historical expression of the mineral resources, industry, immigration, and natural disasters which shaped it.

Initially settled in 1770 and formally organized as a town 30 years later, it served as the head of the Pennsylvania’s Mainline Canal between 1834 and 1854.  The Allegheny Portage Railroad, employing the most advanced technology then available, traversed the imposing, mountainous obstacles between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh by means tracks and canals, the former surmounting the peaks with canal boat-carrying trains and the latter permitting nautical negotiation of the flatter sections.  The boats themselves were refloated in Johnstown before continuing to Pittsburgh and the Ohio Valley.

Engineering maturity inevitably obviated the rail-and-water, intermodal system, facilitating track laying throughout the entire route, but the change only served to strengthen Johnstown, which became a stop on the Pennsylvania Railroad.  It, itself, connected with the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.

The rails brought people and commerce and connected the easterly with the west, but the area offered its own resources.  Mineral-rich, it brimmed with iron, steel, and coal, attracting the industry required to process it and the workforce needed to run it.

The Cambria Iron Company, a proverbial heart pumping blood into the town’s ever-expanding arteries, attracted countless immigrants and served as a catalyst of the Industrial Revolution.  Owning 40,000 acres and employing some 7,000, it fed the country’s insatiable hunger for steel needed to build skyscrapers, bridges, railroads, and ships, transforming iron in its sprawling processing plants and eventually becoming the leading steel producer.

Johnstown, however, was not all work.  A little pocket, located 14 miles from its core and created by Pittsburgh industrialists and businessmen such as Andrew Carnegie and Andrew Mellon, was for pleasure.  Like a ticking time bomb, however, it would also cause its destruction, and it was rapidly running out of minutes.

Located on a floodplain at the fork of the Tiny Conemaugh and Stonycreek rivers, it had been progressively depleted of its surrounding forest, ingested away by its expanding population’s need for land to support it.  Its thinning tree line, helpless to slow rain runoff, could only watch in vain as water flowed into the restricted channel.

Perched 450 feet higher on a mountainside was a two-mile-wide Lake Conemaugh, inactivity behind its South Fork Dam gates to be released.  Hitherto used for fishing and sailing, it was acquired by the exclusive, South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club, along with the forsaken reservoir once an integral part of the Pennsylvania Mainline Canal, and a clubhouse and cottages were subsequently built.  But the poorly maintained barrier progressively deteriorated in ratio to the lake’s progressive rise.  Even though predictions concerning its eventual unfortunate had yet to materialize, its roulette wheel had been spun too many times, and the “perfect storm” was about to rage—in more ways than one.

Memorial Day of 1889 could not have been less predictive of the event.  It was beautiful and bucolic.  People were jovial.  Parades graced the streets.

The time bomb’s ticking became progressively louder to those wishing to listen to it.  But few did.

Torrential rains falling throughout the night had caused the lake to swell to nearly uncontainable levels, its water creeping toward the dam’s crest, and on the morning of Might 31, Colonial Elias J. Unger, the club’s manager, discovered that it was now rising between four and six inches per hour.

Alarmed into action at 10:00 a.m., he prefabricated a last ditch effort, with the aid of a team of Italian laborers, to create a spillway on its west end and elevate its breast.  But the impossible odds of pitting a handful of men against a potentially volcanic force evidenced too high and too predictable.  The bomb—and the dam—burst!

Audibly confirmed with a low rumble, which exploded into a “roar like thunder,” the 20 million tons of water ate through the crumbling barrier like acid intake through paper at 3:10 that afternoon, transforming itself into a 36-foot-high aquatic monster of insurmountable force which cascaded down the valley at 40-mph speeds, consuming everything in its path and “crush(ing) houses like eggshells,” according to eyewitness accounts.

Reaching South Fork, two miles downstream, it ravaged between 20 and 30 structures before proceeding to narrowing Tiny Conemaugh River Valley, growing in height to 75 feet and ripping railroad ties and tracks in the process; it carried them as if they were helpless children.

Dividing, the deluge took two paths: part of it continued to follow the river and part of it plowed into the 78-foot-high Conemaugh Viaduct, which supported the railroad tracks.  But its debris-carrying stream formed a giant cork, as if it came crossways a secondary dam, forming a temporary, 19-foot-deep lake behind it—deeper, in fact, than the original one from which the deluge had been created. 

Pieces, portions, and entire houses, plucked from their foundations like crumbs, along with valley-dislodged material, piled up against the bridge’s arches, before erupting into telegraph pole-, freight car-, and human-fed flames, burning, according to Johnstown newspapers, with “all the fury of hell.”

Ultimately intake its way through the bridge’s arches, the debris-saturated torrent, now an oily-black slime, gushed with even greater intensity.

Continuing its descent, it plowed through the single-street village of Mineral Point, one mile from the viaduct, sweeping 16 people to their demise and leaving only bare rock.

Carrying so much debris by the time it reached East Conemaugh, it no longer appeared a transport medium, but instead resembled a rolling hill of solid material.

As the river valley straightened out between East Conemaugh and Woodvale, the tidal wave gained maximum momentum, impacting with the Gaultier Wire Works, whose boilers exploded into black mist.  Three hundred fourteen of the 1,100 local residents perished.

Plunging into Johnstown ten minutes after it had been unleashed, it smacked into the stone church at the corner of Locust and Franklin streets, splitting as if given divine direction and propagating until it lost power.  Behind it lay a trail of unprecedented death and destruction.

The following morning revealed its war-like, but ghostly-silent aftermath.  Locomotives had been lifted from their tracks and tossed for miles, as if they had been prefabricated of papiermache.  From the rubble of houses, which stood three stories high, protruded trees and telegraph poles, as if they had been the town’s dismembered limbs.  Entire blocks had been striped, leaving unclothed fields.  Bombing raid-reminiscent rubble rose into mini-mountains.  Oil- and coal-fed fires burned for two days.  Bodies lay buried beneath the muddy sludge.  And 2,209 souls had, as a result of it all, departed the world.  The subsequent spread of ravaging disease, mostly due to typhoid fever, bid farewell to another 40.  And the Great Flood of 1889 forever left its scars on Johnstown.

But, Phoenix-like, it rose from the rubble, the steel mills rebuilt and activated only a month after its destruction, once again resurrecting the otherwise decimated town, which entered its second, even more prosperous, period.

Always known for, and shaped by, the event, Johnstown was subjected to not one, but two, other catastrophic floods.

The first of these occurred on March 17, 1936, when a steady rain, coupled with snow and melting cover cascading down the surrounding hills, caused a steady rise in the Tiny Conemaugh and Stonycreek rivers, peaking at 18 inches per hour and spilling over on to Valley Pike.

The Johnstown Inclined Plane, connecting the lower city with Westmont, enabled half of the town’s residents to escape its harm, but when automobiles were no longer healthy to acquire traction, they could not reach it.  Workers were trapped in buildings and the electricity finally failed.

The water level, peaking at 17 feet at midnight, then receded, but left million worth of damage.

The third, occurring between July 19 and 20, 1977, resulted from unprecedented rainfall, totaling 11.82 inches in a ten-hour period and unleashing 128 million gallons of water in to the Conemaugh Valley when six dams overflowed and failed.

Most of this history can now be experienced by visiting Johnstown’s sights.

Johnstown Flood Museum

Located in the former Cambria Library, the Johnstown Flood Museum recreates the catastrophic, 1889 event through exhibits, artifacts, and films.

The French Gothic structure itself, designed by Addison Hutton of Philadelphia, rests on a circular, stone pier foundation and features Pennsylvania pine interior woodwork, eight chimneys, and third-floor dormers.  Replacing the original library, but occupying its original site on the corner of Washington and Walnut streets, it was constructed after the flood with funds provided by steel magnate Andrew Carnegie, who himself had been a member of the ill-fated South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club.  Before being converted for its present use, it had sported lecture rooms on its first floor, the library itself on its second, and a gymnasium on its third.

It is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Operated by the Johnstown Area Heritage Association, it features, as its cornerstone, a fiber-optic, multi-media relief map entitled “The Path of the Flood” and interpreted by a museum docent, illustrating the event of Might 31, 1889 in time and space.  A timeline with light and sound effects also navigates the visitor through it.

Other exhibits include photographs of, and artifacts from, the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club, actual flood objects, news stories, and recovered items, such as Red Cross supplies and a doctor’s kit.

“The Johnstown Flood,” a 26-minute, academy award-winning film, produced by internationally acclaimed filmmaker Charles Guggenheim, is shown in the museum’s second-floor Robert S. Waters Theater.  It won the honor for “best documentary, short subject.”

Additional, flood-related photographs hang from the stairway halls and from the walls on the third floor.  The room’s ceiling alone is worth the visit.

Appendaged to the museum is an actual “Oklahoma house,” a temporary shelter used by flood survivors and a marked improvement over the crude blanket, tent, and lean-to coverages they were otherwise forced to assemble from the rubble.

An primeval example of a prefabricated structure built in Chicago for homesteaders, the museum’s single-floor example, once located in the city’s Moxham neighborhood, has a wood plank floor, a pot belly stove, a round dining table, a wooden storage chest, and a rocking chair.

The houses built by the Johnstown Flood Finance Committee between July and August of 1889 were offered in two sizes: ten by 20 and 16 by 24 feet.  Three hundred ten were constructed during this period.

Like the Chicago fire and the San Francisco earthquake, the Johnstown flood of 1889 was an iconic and pivotal event in American history, and the museum admirably illustrates it and its underlying struggle of man versus nature—especially when the former tempts the latter.

Johnstown Inclined Plane

Symbolic of the city is the Johnstown Inclined Plane, which is a National Historic Landmark and is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as “the steepest vehicular inclined plane in the world.”

Designed by Samuel Diescher of Pittsburgh and built by the Cambria Iron Company as a steep rail system to transport its workers from the valley floor to the newly-created Westmont residential development located on the hill’s rim overlooking Johnstown, it features a double track.  Its original, dual-level cars, hailing from Pittsburgh, offered a 12-passenger cabin below and accommodation for horses and wagons above, and operated differentially, the upward-traveling automobile counterbalancing the downward one.  Power was provided by a steam engine connected to a 16-foot-diameter, dual-directional drum, which had a 50-foot circumference.

Inaugurated into service on June 1, 1891, or 13 months after construction had begun, the funicular assessed a two-cent fare for a single person, ten cents for a horse and rider, and 25 cents for a small wagon, operating at five-minute intervals and carrying 600 passengers and 30 horse-drawn wagons on its very first day.

Maintaining these five-minute interval frequencies 24 hours per day until 1920, it carried a record 1,356,293 passengers and 124,825 automobiles during the prior year.

Early improvements included the replacement of the steam engine with a 300-hp electric one in 1911 and the substitution of single-deck automobiles for the original dual-level ones in 1921.  Offering increased capacity, they accommodated 50 passengers and three Ford Model Ts.

The opening of Pennsylvania Say Highway 271, road-connecting Johnstown with Westmont for the first time, inevitably affected ridership, whose decline began in 1953 and slowed to a trickle, just before its 1961 closure.

Viewed as an area attraction, the Cambria County Tourist Council assumed operational responsibility for it in April of the following year, making several improvements before reopening it in July and altogether purchasing it for a token .00 in 1983, at which time it was restored to its original, 1891 appearance.

Today, the Johnstown Inclined Plane is accessed by a heavy iron bridge, which crosses the Stonycreek River, and its lower entrance is built up of three-foot-thick iron girders and supported by stone abutments.

Its two cars, measuring 15.2 by 15.6 by 34 feet and accommodating passengers in a bench-provisioned side cabin and several automobiles next to it, are copies of those which hauled cargo boats on the Allegheny Portage Railroad, weighing 38 tons each.  Pulled by three, two-inch-thick, power steel, wire rope, 2,150-foot-long cables, whose weight is 23,125 pounds, they ply the 85-pound-per-yard rail manufactured by the Bethlehem Steel Company and imbedded in the hillside at a 35-degree slope and a 71-percent grade.  The incline’s length is 896.5 feet, while the total rail length is 3,586 feet.

Powered by a 400-hp electric motor, the system employs a 16-foot, alternate-directional hoisting drum round which the cables are wound, reeling in one while releasing the other.  That on the drum’s top pulls the north automobile while that on the bottom releases the south one.

Wood-lined drum brakes are used for emergency back up, even though an overspeed lilly governor severs electric current to the hauling motor if any automobile exceeds a predetermined speed, stopping it.  Compressors supply air to the braking mechanisms.

Several facilities are located at the summit, including scenic overlooks, the motor room where visitors can view the system’s inner works during operation, a gift shop, a tourist information center, and the City View Bar and Grill.

Since its inception, the Johnstown Inclined plane has transported more than 40 million passengers and countless horses, wagons, and vehicles.

Frank and Sylvia Pasquerilla Heritage Discovery Center

Located in the Cambria section of Johnstown, 85 percent of which had been populated by immigrants during the 1880s, and operated by the Johnstown Area Heritage Association, the Frank and Sylvia Pasquerilla Heritage Discovery Center is a multiple-attraction venue housed in a 1907 building originally used by the city’s Germania Brewery Company.

One of many brick structures encircling an inner courtyard, it had been sold to Louis Zang for ,000 in 1919 when prohibition had obviated its purpose, but was nearly as swiftly resold to the Ferguson Packing Company for a single dollar.  The Morris Electric Supply Company became yet a fourth owner, in 1946.

Because of its important industrial history, the Johnstown Area Heritage Association acquired it in 1993, renovating it and opening it as the multi-faceted museum it is today.

A 12-foot sculpture, created in 1989 by Charles Zilch, Dennis Waitz, Larry Ramach, and Robert Scarsella, represents the struggles and triumphs of local steelworkers, entailing floods, recessions, and plant closings, thus reflecting the character traits expressed by its very title, “Man of Steel.”

One of the museum’s principle exhibits, as befits its Cambria section location, is “America: Through Immigrant Eyes,” which begins with immigrants riding the very rails they themselves would shortly make at the Cambria Steel Company in Johnstown.

The multi-media exhibit, located on the museum’s first floor, focuses on Johnstown-related immigration, providing insight into their adjustments and challenges as they transformed local resources into steel and, ultimately, paychecks with which to support themselves.  Represented scenes include the Old Country; Ellis Island of New York; the Johnstown Railroad Station, which served as their threshold to the area; and “The Neighborhood of 1907,” where they discuss life in an industrial town.

The building also houses the Johnstown Children’s Museum, located on the third floor; a Rooftop Garden; Galliker’s Café; and several temporary exhibits.

Aside from its immigration focus, another area-indicative aspect can be experienced in the Iron and Steel Gallery.

Its three-floor “Steel: Made in Pennsylvania” room itself, evoking a mill atmosphere, features prints by Say Museum of Pennsylvania photographer Donald Giles, while “The Mystery of Steel” film, shot in Johnstown’s Bethlehem Steel Mills just before they closed, chronicles the evolution of steel and its technological innovations during the 1854 to 1880 period.  Shown on a 30-foot, three-panel screen, it immerses the viewer in the experience with the use of infrared heaters, approximating mill-interior temperatures, and low-resolution speakers, which simulate incessant, machinery-created rumble.

Johnstown Flood National Memorial

Located outside of the city off of Route 219, the Johnstown National Memorial marks the origin of the cataclysmic, 1889 flood.

The valley below its Visitors Center once cradled scenic, two-mile Lake Conemaugh, held by the weakening earthen dam, and the exclusive South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club, remnants of which remain today.

Lush, green hills, a few distant houses, and railroad tracks now meet the visitor’s eyes.  Peace fills the air.  The sweet aromas of spring permeate the nostrils in April and May.  Immersed in this tranquil, bucolic setting, it is difficult to envision what transpired here more than a century ago, but the gruesome, National Park Service-produced “Black Friday” film, recounting the chaos, destruction, suffering, and death, and shown inside the Visitors Center, will snap you back to the area’s pivotal day in an instant.  It is complemented by maps and tactical displays of the flood and its debris-strewn aftermath.

The Unger House, constructed in the mid-1880s by South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club manager Elias J. Unger, is located crossways from the Visitors Center.  After lying forsaken for a decade, it was added to the memorial in 1981 and restored to its original, 1889 appearance, but is this day only used for administrative purposes and is therefore public-inaccessible.

The 1889 clubhouse is another structure retained from the resort.  Donated by the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club Historical Preservation Society, the three-floor, 47-room building served as the principle member lodge, and this day sports its original, wood-grained floors, ceramic tiled fireplace, and wallpaper.

Other Sights

Inextricably tied to the tri-flood history which shaped it, Johnstown offers several other event-related sights.

The Path of the Flood Trail, for example, is both a travel and bicycling route which retraces the Great Flood of 1889 from Ehrenfeld Borough Park to the Johnstown Flood Museum, navigated by means of interpretive signs, while a self-guided travel tour of the Johnstown National Historic District encompasses more than 15 sites.  Commemorative plaques put on the outside corner of the Johnstown City Hall at Main and Market streets mark apiece of the three floods’ highest water levels, recorded as 21 feet in 1889, 17 feet in 1936, and 8.6 feet in 1977.  The Monument of Tranquillity, located at Grandview Cemetery on Millcreek Road, overlooks the 777 graves of the unidentified, 1889 flood victims collectively designated the “Plot of the Unknown.”

We’ve all heard about the founding dads of the United States. Men like George Washington, Ben Franklin and Thomas President whose actions and sacrifices helped to make this nation independent from England. But what about our Founding Mothers? Women whose actions and kill both before and during the Revolutionary War helped to establish our independence. This is the story of just a few of these brave women.

Penelope Barker

Penelope Barker was at least on the surface the last woman you would think would have prefabricated a stand for the colonies Independence.

Not only was Penelope and her husband Thomas Barker wealthy landowners in North Carolina but her husband Thomas was an agent of the English crown. However, Penelope had a mind of her own and an interest in political affairs and believed that England had went to far with the Tea Act of 1773.

Hearing of the Boston Tea Party, Penelope decided to have a tea celebration of her own, southern style.

Going door to door and talking with other women, Penelope incited other women to boycott all British tea and clothing. She convinced 50 women to attend a meeting she held on October 25, 1774. In the course of that meeting the women drew up a letter announcing the boycott and signed it. They then had it published in a London, Newspaper.

The crown did not take the women colonists seriously and many in England laughed at their puny attempts. The laughter swiftly stopped however, when more and more colonial women followed Penelope’s lead and boycotted English prefabricated products.

Sybil Ludington

Sybil Ludington was born on April 5, 1761 and raised in New York. She was the oldest of eleven kids and the daughter of the commander of the New York Militia.

On the night of April 26, 1777 Sybil was putting her siblings to bed when the family received word that the English were burning Danbury, Connecticut.

The New York Militia under her father’s command were scattered over a 25 mile length of the Ludington home and 16 year old Sybil was sent to sound like alarm.

Riding 40 miles (twice the distance of Paul Revere) through out the night Sybil went from farm home to farm home knocking on door with a wooden stick and sounding the alarm “Muster at Ludington”

During the ride she was drenched with rain continuously and had to fight off a highway man using her father’s musket.

By the time an fatigued Sybil arrived home near daylight 400 militiamen had assembled. Though her warning came too late to save Danbury the assembled Militia were healthy to confront General William Tryon the then governor of New York and his army and drive them back to Long Island Sound.

Her actions led to her personally be thanked by general George Washington.

Sybil continued to serve her country during the rest of the war by acting as a messenger for the troops/

Molly Pitcher

Molly Pitcher is a legendary figure in the annuals of the Revolutionary war and in fact she might be a composite of two brave women of that time. Mary McCauley and Marget Corbin.

Both these women went to war with their husbands and served as “water boys” bringing water to the thirsty troops while in the heat of battle. Both women saw their husbands start while loading or firing a cannon in battle. Mary McCauley’s husband was either wounded or fainted from the 100 degree heat at the effort of Monmouth, and Margret Corbin’s husband fell at Fort Washington.

Rushing to their husband’s side, these women then took over the tasks at the cannons that their husbands could no longer perform.

After the war both women received pensions for their service to their country.

Deborah Sampson

Deborah Sampson is know as the first American woman to impersonate a man in order to fight in battle.

Born on December 17th 1760, Deborah was the oldest of 6 children. Abandoned by her father, and her mom in imperfectness health Deborah served as a indentured servant for several years. When her servitude

ended Deborah wanted adventure and she wanted to enlist in the army and help fight for the colonies Independence.

Knowing that women were unable to enlist in the army in 1782 she cut her hair, bound her chest, and went to the recruiting office under the study of her brother Robert Shurtliff. She was assigned to the light infantry company of the 4th Massachusetts regiment.

After serving at West Point for several months Deborah was twice wounded along the Hudson and latter took a bullet to her thigh during another battle. The bullet in her thigh would cause her trouble the rest of her life. Despite these injuries, Deborah was healthy to refrain having her secret detected.

However, near the end of the war Deborah suffering from a malignant fever was hospitalized and treated. The attending physician discovered Deborah’s secret but stated nothing. Once her health was restored the physician met with the commanding officer.

The commanding officer ordered Deborah to carry a letter to the Commander in Chief of the continental army, George Washington.

The jig was up. Washington handed Deborah a discharge from the army, a note with words of advice, and enough money to pay her expenses home. She received an honorable discharge.

There are many other women whose stories deserve to be told. Women who hid messages and important documents in their petticoats and delivered them to the commanders of units, women who picked up muskets and fought alongside their husbands and brothers, and women who nursed the wounded. Many will remain anonymous and never receive the recognition they deserve but they like the women mentioned above were all part of making the United Says a free and independent nation.

Yeah BOI – Cape Reinga to Russell

What an disturbed night’s sleep. I had one of those had-to-get-up-early- so-I-kept-waking-up-thinking-my-alarm-had-failed-to-go-o? kinds of nights. But I did happen to be asleep when my alarm really did go o?, at 4:15am. I was actually quite awake, considering the hour. I hit the road pretty much straight away, heading for sunrise at Cape Reinga, after having my iced co?ee Up-and-Go of course (all the goodness of 2 weetbix and a glass of milk without any of the point, it doesn’t ?ll you up or make you feel like you’ve really had breakfast). On the way to Cape Reinga I passed a campervan on the side of the road. Tourist’s obviously don’t read week old papers before touring the country (2 tourists kidnapped, one raped, while staying overnight in a parking lot by Haruru Falls on their honeymoon. Go Northland!). Then when I got to Cape Reinga there was another one in the parking lot. Why, I could have had an extra hours sleep. And miss a drowsy drive crossways ridiculously rugged dirt roads? Not in your life. As it was I got there just in time. Not just in time for sunrise, but just in time to realise that you can’t actually see the sunrise from Cape Reinga. I did get to see the lighthouse in action. Up until now I had never seen it emitting light, and since I knew it was no one’s house, I could never truly believe it existed until this day.

After the Cape (we’re on an ambiguous partial study basis now) I headed for Te Paki sand dunes. I wasn’t after the sand dunes themselves, as much as a swift hike up and run down would have satis?ed both primeval morning cravings for excessive exercise AND a mouthful of sand, I was actually there for Te Paki stream. Without a moment’s hesitation, disregarding the few moments I took to place the Hilux into 4WD and take a few photos, I shot down the stream. I was having so much fun barely being healthy to see out the windscreen through all the water splashing up as I hurtled down the stream that I didn’t realise the truck was in low gear, and revving like a banshee. This was swiftly remedied and soon I was hurtling with even more hurtle having the time of my life. When I got to the end of the stream I took it out of 4WD and used my extremely weighty arse, and by that I mean the truck’s arse, to, as the youth of my day would have said, “hook some doughies”. The smile on my grappling was now at maximum stretch. Thank god I ?lmed it all so I could watch it all again and even share it with my friends and family. What’s this? The camera was on full zoom? Possibly the most visually exciting part of my entire trip and all you can see are my grinning eyes? It’s times like this all you can do is laugh. Or swear profusely. I leant towards the latter. Guess I’ll have to do it again soon. What a crying shame.

At the end of the stream I headed down 90-mile beach, stopping a couple of times to let Palin run around, and taking some potentially honor winning photographs featuring my glorious ‘ride’ in the morning sun. By the end of my time on 90-mile beach I had ?nally solved the puzzle of why it has such an exaggerated name. It’s simply because the exit you want to take is so indistinguishable from all the streams and sand dune alcoves, that it is far too simple to drive straight past, invoking the need to back track considerably, carry the one, and voila. 90 miles travelled on 40 kilometres of beach.

After heading back to the campground to get my money’s worth in shower and toilet usage, I prefabricated tracks for my ?rst tearooms in Awanui then up and round Karikari Peninsula. What a stunning place that is. I mean that, no sarcasm intended. Matai Bay especially. I couldn’t go down there because dogs were prohibited, but from afar it looked like New Zealand’s take on Thailand. Complete with seemingly out of place island just o? the beach. The road between the previous bay and Matai Bay is unsealed. Here’s my tip for buying investment property. Property at the end of gravel roads, especially when at the point the road becomes sealed, there is a massive building pretentiously titled “Carrington” with it’s own golf course, is likely to be a good investment.

From here I travelled round Doubtless Bay, containing numerous sub-bays. Each of these was probably more outstanding than the last, even though I didn’t go to any so I can’t comment at this time.

I place more diesel in my truck in Kaeo, it’s been a carbon credit hungry couple of days. I don’t have much to state about Kaeo. I don’t think anyone has much to state about Kaeo. It amazes me that the people working in the service station are so young. I guess the cost of living in Kaeo is so little, it’s the only area young people can a?ord to live. Or maybe they were brought up in Kaeo, or one of the smaller surrounding towns (commonly referred to as ‘houses’), and feel no need to move anywhere else. Home is where the heart is. There’s no place like home. Home, home on the range. Etc…

Eventually I prefabricated it to Waitangi. Home of the Waitangi Treaty Grounds (not Government funded, as the signs seemed adamant in reminding me). The very site that the Treaty was signed on. The document our country was built on. Such an important place to visit, such a signi?cant piece of our heritage, such a need for each one of NZ’s citizens to. . . ! Such a lot of money. I didn’t go in. I breathed in some of the grandeur while I was using the toilets. Outside there’s a plaque that reads: “In 1932 this land was purchased by Lord and Lady Bledisloe and gifted as a reserve to the people of New Zealand. . . ”. The Treaty is responsible for numerous land claims as Maori land was purchased for what is now considered by some to be far too little, and here, the very place in which it was signed, was purchased as recently as 1932 and simply gifted to the people of New Zealand, and is now used as a money-making tourist attraction. There’s irony in there somewhere, I’m sure of it, but I dare not place my ?nger on it.

Next stop was Paihia. By now the sun was literally beating down (not literally of course, that kind of thing would de?nitely make the news, but it was hot) so I decided to have my ?rst swim of the season. The water was cold, but not too cold. It was force-the-air-from-your-lungs-cold, but not prevent-the-air-from-getting-back-in cold. After that I lay on the beach for a while and since I hadn’t place sunscreen on I followed my grandma’s immortal advice and “rotated like a chicken”. It wasn’t long before I thought I superior get back on the road. It was only a short drive to Opua and the automobile ferry that would take me to Russell. Half an hour later I was at Orongo Bay Holiday Park, just outside of Russell. You could never ?nd that sort of e?ciency in Auckland. After ?nding a spot on the desolate camping plains, in the far corner so Palin could run free without too much clean of neighbourly interaction, I place sunscreen on, a chicken can only rotate so much before it gets burned, and took a look around the campground. A pool! I swam. The water was exactly the right temperature for the amount of hot that I was. Then I went back to my site, lay on my towel and promptly dozed away after being awake and driving for 11 hours.

When I ?nally got up about an hour and a half later I decided to get out of the campground and drive to Russell. I could have walked. I wouldn’t have walked, but it was not so absolutely out of the question. Russell is one of New Zealand’s oldest towns, and it shows. It seems anything that hasn’t blown away in the wind or dissolved since the Europeans ?rst arrived is now part of the heritage trail. ‘This crane was used to o?-load the ships of the primeval settlers’. ‘This cannon, from the HMS Etcetera, was ?rst brought ashore in 1893’. ‘This shoe was left when Robert Donaldson, of Bristol, stepped on some gum during his honeymoon in 1987’. I’ve never seen a town with so many buttresses. All that aside, it is a very sweet, quaint tiny township. And I can’t envision you’d ever go hungry, with what seems to be a ratio of 4 restaurants to each 1 room of accommodation. Perhaps Russell is the township that never sleeps. Most people are probably too scared to, if you’re not careful your heart-rate might drop too low and before you know stepped on some gum during his honeymoon in 1987’. I’ve never seen a town with so many buttresses. All that aside, it is a very sweet, quaint tiny township. And I can’t envision you’d ever go hungry, with what seems to be a ratio of 4 restaurants to each 1 room of accommodation. Perhaps Russell is the township that never sleeps. Most people are probably too scared to, if you’re not careful your heart-rate might drop too low and before you know it you’ve become number 62 on the 50m heritage trail.     

Awanui Bakehouse & Tearooms

Awanui Bakehouse & Tearooms is de?nitely leaning more towards bakehouse than tearooms. In fact, I’m not even sure if they serve tea. I would have asked for some, but there were some intimidating truckers having their regular plate of fried food and I didn’t want to look like the out-of-towner I knew I was.

Instead I did my ideal to ?t in, and had a mince & cheese pie, which was very tasty if a tiny high-priced for a smal l-town pie. . Lucky for me I’m travel ling on Auckland dol lars, so that translated to roughly AKL.80. I also had a bottle of coke, or tea of a new generation. Black iced tea, with extra, extra sugar.

As for the tearooms themselves, they weren’t even set out like a tearooms. It was set out like a bakery with a plateau in the corner. I would have asked the owner a bit about the history, but when I asked if I could take some photos, “because I’m visiting each tearoom in the country and might be writing a book”, she just stated “Ok” and went back to stocking her pies. I could have stated I was casing the joint, and planned on coming back in an hour or so with each intention of robbing her at knife-point, and the answer probably would have been “whatever, just let me stock my pies ?rst”. Asking any further questions seemed liked it would be a waste of both my time and hers. Besides, those pies won’t stock themselves.

People dress in all kinds of clothes while travelling. Some dress casually in jeans while others wear business suits. Some people wear track pants or even pajamas for the flight. With the increase in airfield security some people wonder whether one needs to dress in a particular way for flights. Actually, it doesn’t matter really what you wear for the flight.

Comfort has become an important consideration for choosing the clothes during air travel. It really doesn’t matter whether you are taking a long flight or not. Nobody wants to be uncomfortable during a flight. After all, there is nothing more uncomfortable than tight clothes and itchy pants. Even if you are travelling for business you can wear loose and comfortable clothes as it is doable to change into business suit in the airfield bathrooms.

Sweat pants and loose top are saint for air travel as they pose no problems with security. This is because sweat pants don’t have metal parts and security checks take less time than the travelers who are full with accessories which trigger security alarms.

Earrings and other jewellery create some problems at the airfield security. You will be asked to remove the jewelry and keep in a bin. Necklace and rings have to be removed. The jewelry is scanned along with your other baggage. While you might not be asked to remove earrings, it might set off the metal detectors, in which case you might be taken aside for security check.

Belts also trigger alarms. You are asked to remove them when you enter the security area. If you are uncomfortable about removing belt and jewelry it is ideal to leave these items at home when you travel.

These days the security might ask you to even remove shoes. Earlier such checking was random. Now it is nearly mandatory and your shoes are scanned like the rest of your luggage. Therefore it is advisable to wear shoes which are simple to remove and wear again.

Of late liquids are not being granted in the planes. Even liquid water can't be carried. You can't therefore keep liquid toiletry items in the carry on baggage. Some women are concerned whether gel filled bras are granted or not. Actually, you are granted to wear them currently. In fact, unless you mention it to the security they might not even know about it.

Hampton Court Palace, on the banks of the Thames, is considered one of the most haunted buildings in the United Kingdom. Most of the famous phantom visitors are contemporaries of Henry VIII, like Cardinal Thomas Wolsey who gave the palace to Henry, two of Henry’s beheaded wives, and maybe the Tudor King himself returned to the palace in December 2003.

A few days after he had disposed of his second wife Anne Boleyn, Henry octad married Jane Seymour. Anne was beheaded for alleged treason, incest, adultery and witchcraft. She has been seen, most of the time headless, in the Tower of London and in the castles where she once lived. You’ll find her story here: The Traveling Headless Witch Anne Boleyn. At Hampton Court, she is seen as a Mohammedan dressed in blue or black.

Jane Seymour, the third wife of Henry VIII, died in 1537 after giving birth to the child who became Edward VI. Her life was deliberately sacrificed by the performance of a Caesarean operation in order to ensure the country of the precious male heir. Jane had an uneasy conscience concerning the circumstances in which she supplanted Anne Boleyn, and after her death her worried spirit remained earthbound, seeking contact with the ghost of Anne. Jane Seymour haunts the Silver Stick Gallery in Hampton Court each year on the birthday of the baby whose birth had meant her death. On moonlit evenings, dressed in white and carrying a candle, she ascends in a melancholic way the staircase leading to the Gallery, where she glides wreathed in a silvery light.

Maybe the most famous Tudor ghost is that of Catherine Howard, fifth wife of Henry VIII. For only one year, this captivating girl was Henry’s “rose without a thorn”. He forgot all about her youth of fun and games with a variety of young men, from spinet instructors to page boys. Henry wept over her reputation that was the speak of the Court and sent her to the block, together with her lovers, past and present. She was arrested at Hampton Court, but she broke away from the guards and ran along a corridor now known as the Haunted Gallery, to the chapel where Henry – “the professional widower” – was praying for her soul. Catherine tried to make a last plea for her life, but the guards dragged her back, shrieking and lamenting, into a barge and then down the Thames to the Tower, where she was beheaded on 13 February, 1542.

You can still hear her chilling shrieks there, in Hampton Court, and her ghost has been seen on many occasions, racing along the gallery, chased by spectral soldiers. As a consequence of a true invasion by these otherwordly spirits, the Haunted Gallery was shut up and for centuries was used as a lumber room for wornout furniture and motheaten tapestries. In April 1918, the Office of Works, had the Haunted Gallery cleared out, renovated and opened to the public – but Catherine’s ghost seems to like the Hampton Court gardens nowadays, where she is seen on sunny afternoons, reliving the memories of more pleasant times. And then there was this man, who heard someone knocking on a door and who saw a woman’s hand wearing the elaborate ring Catherine wore in a royal portrait…

Dame Sybill Penn, also known as the Grey Lady of Hampton Court, was the foster-mother of Edward VI. When the young king died, she mourned him as her own son. Afterwards she was allowed a residence at Hampton Court, where she died in 1562 of smallpox and was buried in an imposing tomb in the old church of Hampton-on-Thames. Until 1829 she rested there in peace, but when the old church was demolished, her tomb was disturbed… and so was her soul. The ghost of Mrs Penn returned to her old rooms at Hampton Court, where angry mutterings were heard, and the sound of a spinning wheel echoing through the southwest wing. Workers traced the sound back to a brick surround and uncovered a secret room with a 16th century spinning wheel and a variety of curiosities… Hampton Court records showed that this room once had been occupied by Mrs Penn who had often used the spinning wheel. Since then, people sleeping in the Palace have been awoken many times by the icy hands of Mrs. Penn put upon their faces, and a luminous figure in grey bending over them…

The Surveillance Tape Ghost

In December 2003, Hampton Court was in the news again, this time with a ghost caught by a security camera. The extraordinary piece of CCTV showed a tall figure wearing a long dark coat, shutting a double fire door situated in a part of the palace that is forbidden for the public and where the costumed guides don’t go. The figure had a grappling that was, according to a security guard “incredibly spooky, because it didn’t look human”. There had been a security alarm sounding, but the guards had found the fire doors shut and there had been no-one around…

The camera footage of the ghost closing the door baffled researchers of the paranormal. Maybe it was nothing more than a publicity stunt to attract more visitors? A spokesperson for the tourist attraction declared it wasn’t a joke: “We genuinely don’t know who or what it is.”

Could it truly be the Ghost of a Professional Widower, an arch-vilain who doesn’t sleep that peacefully? Judge for yourself and do it here:
