I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

Help? The Medium (Email) links are for screen viewing and emailing. You'll want bigger sizes for printing. [Click here for additional help]

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. SMMISC_190808_13.JPG: KILROY HOUSE Dr. Philip Kilroy had this stucco building constructed in 1905 as his home and office for a cost of $11,000. Its tile roof, stained glass windows and wood paneled interior earned an early description of "model of elegance". Dr. Kilroy was born in County Cavan, Ireland, in 1866 and came to the United States with his parents in 1880. After receiving degrees from Holy Cross College and Harvard medical School, he studied at the University of Vienna and the University of Paris. Returning to Springfield, he became well respected as a neurologist, dermatologist and as an "alienist" (psychiatrist). His obituary in 1932 described him as "a brilliant member" of the medical profession and spoke of "his unusual intellectual qualities and extraordinary breadth of his interests". Shortly after his death, the house was purchased by WSPR, the third radio station in the city, which broadcast from here from 1936 to 1981. The building was purchased by the Springfield Library & Museums Association and today it houses the administrative offices for the Marketing, Development and Public Relations Department. Kilroy House is part of the Quadrangle-Mattoon Street Historic District and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Wikipedia Description: Quadrangle (Springfield, Massachusetts)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Quadrangle is the common name for a cluster of museums and cultural institutions in Metro Center, Springfield, Massachusetts, on Chestnut Street between State and Edwards Streets.

The Dr. Seuss National Memorial Sculpture Garden, in the center of the Quadrangle, is surrounded by a park, a library, five museums, and a cathedral. A second cathedral is just on the Quadrangle's periphery.
Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
Connection Not Secure messages? Those warnings you get from your browser about this site not having secure connections worry some people. This means this site does not have SSL installed (the link is http:, not https:). That's bad if you're entering credit card numbers, passwords, or other personal information. But this site doesn't collect any personal information so SSL is not necessary. Life's good!
