Black and white photograph of a preserved railroad complex in St. James, Minnesota. A white wooden signal tower dominates the center frame, with a dark caboose visible to its left beside a low depot building. To the right, a tall wooden water tower rises against a dramatic overcast sky. Bare deciduous trees and a large evergreen frame the scene; flat prairie landscape extends into the background.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Despite Google Maps claiming the train museum was open we saw nothing but the outdoor displays.

Petrified Wood
I believe it qualifies for old. The petrified wood at Escalante Petrified Forest State Park in Utah is said to be over 150 million years old.

A high-contrast black and white photograph from 1978 featuring a discarded, frosted metal drum top leaning against weathered wooden planks. The drum top is a dark, rounded shape covered in a fine, sparkling layer of hoarfrost that catches the light. Above it, the horizontal grain of the old wood is deeply etched and textured. A single hexagonal nut sits atop the drum lid, adding a sharp geometric detail to the organic scene.

Looking up at a vibrant display of Yoshino cherry blossoms against a clear blue sky.

I was drawn to the curves of the branches of this Yoshino cherry tree.
These were a gift of friendship from Japan in 1912.

Bought this pitcher at a house sale, researched it only to find it is 200 year old English pottery.

It has been stowed away in a box to prevent the orange cat from destroying history...

A view at dusk of Victoria Street towards West Bow in Edinburgh, Scotland, a popular and historic street known for its curved shape and colourful storefronts. 
The view is looking down on the street from Victoria Terrace which runs above Victoria Street.
It captures the street scene at dusk on a clear November evening. The scene is lit up by lighting inside and outside of the buildings.
The cobbled street is busy with people enjoying the view or congregating near some of the shops.
There are many chimney pots on the top of the buildings and they stand out against the clear blue early twilight sky. There is an orange glow on the horizon from the setting sun.
The street is located in the Old Town of Edinburgh, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

A Beaux-Arts style building that houses a performing arts and cinema complex. 
From the theatre's website:

"On November 2, 1960, Durham’s Youth Chapter of The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) began protesting the Carolina Theatre’s segregation policy. Their protests focused on the illegality of a city-owned venue upholding laws of segregation. Black patrons arranged round robin protests—lining up at the white ticket window, being refused a ticket, and getting back in line to do it all over again. After years of pressure from protesters, the City of Durham desegregated the theater on August 5, 1963."

The Carolina Theatre in Durham, NC was built in 1926; it's celebrating its 100th birthday this year. Glad it survived here in the land of teardown and rebuild instead of restore and preserve.
