Quarry Park and Nature Preserve
This 682-acre area, near Waite Park, Minnesota, was formerly the site of granite quarries. The granite quarry operations ceased in the mid-1950's, and nature began to reclaim the land. In 1992, Stearns County purchased the land and added it to the Stearns County Parks System. It opened to the public in 1998 as Quarry Park and Nature Preserve. The park has something for nearly everyone. Activities possible here include hiking, mountain biking, cross country skiing, rock climbing, fishing, swimming, scuba diving and many more.
For All the World to See: Exhibit at Stearns History Museum
New exhibit at the Stearns History Museum in St. Cloud, Minnesota.

US Hydraulic Elevator - Midtown Square Office Building - St. Cloud, MN
This is the US hydraulic elevator in the Midtown Office Building at Midtown Square Mall in St. Cloud, Minnesota. I suppose it is possible that another company installed this elevator and used the US elevator fixtures...There's no faceplate to indicate either way so I have no idea.

Otis Elevators at the Medical Arts Building
This is 1 of 4 Otis traction elevators at the Medical Arts Building in Duluth, MN. This is a neat 1930's Art Deco building (the only one of its kind in the city). Elevators were modernized by Otis a few years ago. Only 1 of the 4 elevators goes up to the 14th floor and I happened to get that one!

Star Trek - Horizon: Full Film
We're continuing to tell original science fiction stories, please consider supporting us on Patreon!
Star Trek - Horizon is a feature-length fan film made by a single filmmaker as a personal passion project and love letter to Enterprise, the fifth Star Trek series. Pre-production began in December of 2012 and this 3-year-long odyssey concluded on February 25th, 2016. It's been a long road, getting from there to here.
The Coalition of Planets, a young alliance of worlds led by Earth, is at war with the Romulan Empire. Desperate for a chance to gain the upper hand in the war, the Coalition forms an alliance with T'mar, a Romulan deserter, in the hopes that she can provide valuable intelligence on her former masters.

Star Trek - Horizon, the website, the promotion thereof and/or any exhibition of material created by Project [N] ReSource Films, Tommy Kraft, or the Star Trek - Horizon team are not endorsed or sponsored by or affiliated with CBS/Paramount Pictures or the STAR TREK franchise.
With this project I intend only to use my skills to show my love for a franchise that has been an endless source of inspiration for me, not only professionally but personally as well.
