Die knowing your life was my life's best part"

Old barn beams were brought in to give the coffee house Double Shots atmosphere, I guess this beam connection was in the way so removed.
I can make you rich (I can make you rich)
I can make you this, baby, I can make you that
I could take you there, but baby, you won't make it back
Growing sick of this and I don't wanna make you sad
Do I make you scared? Baby, won't you take me back?

Coming to an end. Great right?
Whether due to an accident or birth defect, this urban (feral) pigeon (Columba livia f. urbana) is missing one leg. As a result it is only able to move on land by hopping on the other one.
Czy to wskutek wypadku, czy wady wrodzonej, ten gołąb miejski (Columba livia f. urbana) nie ma jednej nogi. W efekcie po ziemi jest w stanie poruszać się tylko skacząc na drugiej nodze.
I should probably explain why I haven’t been around for a while.
A few months ago I put down my camera and put on my running shoes to begin training for a 48 hour fixed time race to bring in the new year. It didn’t end well.
Going forward, I want to put down my Nikes and pick up my Nikon. As soon as my broken finger heals, I want to go out and take some pictures.
In the meantime, here is a repost from a few years ago, when the Trump administration proposed the removal of this place from the protection of the Grand Staircase/Escalante National Monument. Nowadays, things are looking better for the future of my hoodoo friends.
The photo has been lightly edited, and the text, below, somewhat more.

Memento Mori (The Queen)
Daughter of ancient sea and flowing lava
conceived and buried
after a million centuries rising
her crown choosing her
as the land falls away
She has lived through it all
seen fantastic things come
and go in a stream
of deep time ending
with the arrival of man her assassin
She has not much longer to exist …
what wind earth and water would do
slowly
man will accomplish in an instant
And so I come to her court
cloud moon and stars
this beautiful woman who has
endured,
like me soon to be no more
to sleep at her feet
and dream

Jal Mahal (meaning "Water Palace") is a palace located in the middle of the Man Sagar Lake in Jaipur city, the capital of the state of Rajasthan, India. The palace and the lake around it were renovated and enlarged in the 18th century by Maharaja Jai Singh II of Amber
In the past, at the location of the lake, there was a natural depression where water used to accumulate. During 1596 AD, when there was a severe famine in this region there was consequent acute shortage of water. The then ruler of Ajmer was, therefore, motivated to build a dam to store water to overcome the severe hardships caused by the famine to the people inhabiting the region. A dam was constructed, initially using earth and quartzite, across the eastern valley between Amer hills and Amagarh hills. The dam was later converted into a stone masonry structure in the 17th century. The dam, as existing now (see picture), is about 300 metres (980 ft) long and 28.5–34.5 metres (94–113 ft) in width. It is provided with three sluice gates for release of water for irrigation of agricultural land in the down stream area. Since then, the dam, the lake and the palace in its midst have undergone several rounds of restoration under various rulers of Rajasthan but the final restoration in the 18th century is credited to Jai Singh II of Amer. During this period, a number of other historical and religious places, such as the Amer Fort, Jaigarh Fort, Nahargarh Fort, Khilangarh Fort, Kanak Vrindavan Valley were also built in the vicinity of the lake. All these places are now linked under a tourist corridor of road net work.
The silent tears which remember you
you are in my silent prayers
do you know that i miss you
do you know that i truly do
I always catch my breath
And I’m still standing here
And you’re miles away
And I’m wondering why you left
And there’s a storm that’s raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile
I spend my time
Thinking about you
And it’s almost driving me wild
And that’s my heart that’s breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone away
I ain’t missing you
No matter
What my friends say
There’s a message in the wild
And I’m sending you this signal tonight
You don’t know how desperate I’ve become
And it looks like I’m losing this fight

I was going thru some slide scans and came upon some Conrail stuff.. It started to occur to me that Conrail has now been gone MORE years then it was alive (23 years)! I miss Big Blue, always a steadfast of alot of trains in the Chicago Terminal, you would never be disappointed on the Chicago Line (NYC) east of town.. Do we have a John Stanovich sighting here in the seat? Here I presume is ELBR tip-toeing into 1 lead at the east end of BRC's Clearing Yard at Hayford Jct, on a beautiful late summer afternoon in 96.. Conrail would last but 2.5 years and be dissolved on May 31st 1999 - 26 years and 9 months ago...

Awesome landscape photography prints available on on Society6 and Redbubble
On a sunny day you walk past the park and they are empty...
No yells, screams, bangs and prangs.....
Just a sad silence and yearning swings....
