And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Wooden house decor in Tomsk. Photo by Georgiy Argiropulo (Russia, 1970s).
Serious Victorian gingerbread, used to do copper and slate work around Boston during the restoration in the 80's, amazing craftsmanship during that Victorian period.
That’s the fanciest log house I’ve ever seen!
