i've had a splitting headache since 11 or so this morning. Made for a fun afternoon staring at a computer monitor at work.

First proper cold morning signalling winter is on it's way. Took me ages to scrape the car windows clear
today Nyla saw her first dandelion. She also pulled, blew, licked, and threw her first dandelion. She enjoyed it. I enjoyed shooting it.
I'm working on turning our living room into a part-time studio for the winter, so today I did some experimenting. Setting this up with a baby strapped to my chest and these two monkeys tearing the house apart all morning was a challenge, so I'm really happy I ended up with nice photos for the effort!
Bolton Corporation Transport 310, an Electric Railway & Tramway Carriage Works Limited tram with a The J.G. Brill Company 21E truck, two Walker Electric Company 33S 25 horsepower motors and Dick, Kerr & Company Limited S1 controllers built 1899 with a The English Electric Company Limited H28/22R body on Bradshawgate in Bolton. Saturday 28th April 1945
Note, 310 was delivered as an open top tram with the fleet number 10. It was fitted with a balcony top cover at some time before 1914 with the seating being altered from O29/22R to H34/22R and the original Electric Railway & Tramway Carriage Works Limited body was replaced by a new The English Electric Company Limited body in 1926. It was renumbered 310 in 1940 tram renumbering scheme
310 was possibly working a Walkden to Bolton (Great Moor Street) G service

After getting in line at 3:30 a.m. I was feeling a bit light on my feet, getting the chance to see the president was something I have been trying to do for the last 3 years (he first visited to the open public in September of 2010) but after a run in with the secret service spooked me: I vowed I would get his picture somehow/someway before the end of his presidency.
So when he decided to pay Madison a visit in October (to which I couldn't attend do to work conflicts), I thought my chances were gone to see the man. But alas news came late last week that he was going to pay a visit to the city county building in the heart of the Isthmus. ONLY A MERE .5 MILES FROM MY APARTMENT! With no commitments to work until 3:30 on Monday afternoon I did it, all things aside (pushing and shoving, and old ladies grabbing onto me for help to get them to the security checkpoint) I got to see the President. We all seemingly waited forever, and our feet were sore by the time he came on stage (at that point we had been waiting in line for eight hours) with no bathroom breaks (so not to lose our spot in line) he was greeted with a thunderous applause.
At the end of the day, I felt like I had accomplished something: nearly 1400 (1385 to be exact but whose counting them anyway) since I snapped photos during my first year of a "365 project" of a man on a snow hill on inauguration day wishing instead of being in Madison I could have been in DC. But heck, a presidential visit to Madison for the 2nd time in as many months and a photo to share with you feels great, not to mention the memory!
