		<description><![CDATA[I have the honor of being asked to give a talk on the life and work of James Betelle at the Durand-Hedden House and Garden Association, on April 29th, from 1-4 pm. All are welcome—and I promise to reveal stories, some of a scandalous nature, not yet shared on this site&#8230; &#160;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Beyond architecture, James Betelle occasionally wrote about grander social issues.  This article was written in 1917, shortly after the U.S.&#8217;s entry into World War I. Transcribed from The American Architect, Vol. CXII, August 22, 1917, No. 2174.

		<description><![CDATA[James Betelle&#8217;s death is one of the more curious aspects of his story.  He died in Italy, ending up in an unmarked pauper&#8217;s grave, while in Delaware, a stone with his name on it sits quietly in an old cemetery. How did he come to be buried (as it were), in two places? I&#8217;ve already [...]]]></description>

A company in rural Pennsylvania called Firefly Landing appears to be in the business of making nothing but wood blocks die-cut in the shape of the schools and buildings of Maplewood, New Jersey. Talk about targeted marketing! According to the site, &#8220;The vintage images are digitally printed, mounted to maple hardwood [...]]]></description>

Last Friday, I hopped the train with my bike and camera to have a look for myself. This amazing 1879 Victorian pile—apparently in [...]]]></description>

In it are typical scenes of a family&#8217;s life; Church, Christmas, Halloween, hanging out at the pool, etc. Interspersed with this are scenes around Maplewood that any resident will easily recognize.
