T-6 Shuttle from the Ahsoka serie. Original MOC design from Pixel_Dan on Rebrickable with only minimal cosmetic changes on my side.
The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carrying the Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich spacecraft lifts off from Space Launch Complex 4 at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, Nov. 21, 2020, at 9:17 a.m. PST (12:17 p.m. EST).
The Sentinel-6/Jason-CS (Continuity of Service) mission consists of the Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich satellite, which will be followed by its twin, the Sentinel-6B satellite, in 2025. The Sentinel-6/Jason-CS mission is part of Copernicus, the European Union's Earth observation program, managed by the European Commission. Continuing the legacy of the Jason series missions, Sentinel-6/Jason-CS will extend the records of sea level into their fourth decade, collecting accurate measurements of sea surface height for more than 90% of the world's seas, and providing crucial information for operational oceanography, marine meteorology, and climate studies. NASA's Launch Services Program at Kennedy Space Center was responsible for launch management.

6 months now and full of smiles. Just seems like Kelley and I did her newborn...
Here she is at 9 days:
Tonight I find myself in a most unusual situation...almost wireless...hundreds of miles from home for the next 6 days...have my mac with me to process images...but no portable hard drive to switch them over to this rinky dink old pc which serves as my only source to the internet!...so it would seem that for the moment I can only comment and not submit! I found this image on my photostream from a while back...obviously one which I had decided not to go with...how handy it is now...a bit like the humble button from my last post! PS this pc is so rinky dink the only punctuation that works on it is the full stop...I think you call this a period in the US!...oh yes...the exclaimation mark works too!
Toronto got some beautiful snow last week. I love the beauty of winter but I'll never get used to being perpetually cold and tired in these dark months.

Regretting the fact that I didn't get out and shoot today. Buddy loves the snow, but this will have to work until tomorrow.

Of all the places I traveled last year, Point of the Arches on the Olympic peninsula is near the top of my list. The fact that it takes 4.5 hours of driving, 2 hours of walking and that it rains 300 days a year makes it difficult to reach, but when you get a sunny day, it can’t be beat. I’ve spent both a miserable rainy day and 2 beautiful sunny days… I’ll take a sunny day please :)
buy a book!

I finally got around to editing some of the shots that I was able to get of this American Avocet that I came across near Viscount Saskatchewa...
One of the more colourful shore birds, the American Avocet is definitely one of my favorite shore birds to capture...

My first 6 wide car! I spent ages making sure that 4 minifigs could sit comfortably inside. The roof's a bit chunkier than I'd really like though.
