Western Mass.
Made one of my rounds taking pics of chimneys in the area - and found this beauty at Mt. Holyoke College across the river.

I have about 40 more nice ones which will be added to the chimney gallery at:
https://www.hearth.com/gallery/ within 48 hours or so....as soon as I can get them captioned and processed.

Enjoy!

Well, at least I get to write the trip off!

If anyone here has any neat chimneys in the neighborhood, please take a photo and send to me.....
 
This is one I've always been fond of...how DID they do that cap?
(I just may copy this when we raise mine)

Saftey nets for the gargoils :lol:
 
Ok, from a southerner,

what is a snow jack?
 
Up here; we at times get 18-24 inches of snow in one shot; on slate or metal roofs it comes off in one shot which can be quite dangerous to folks on the ground. These hold the snow and ice up there so it slowly melts. Then if the air temp is cold enough you get icicles all the way to the ground and big around as some trees
