Gale force 8 hits the harbour arm

 

With a train of stone loads from Plum Run, CCET rolls west past an N&W doll arm intermediate just east of Peebles. This was something I didn't know even existed until recently, and I can't think of anywhere else something like it is still standing. It also seems that someone came back here to clean up the brush recently, opening up what I can only imagine was an overgrown mess. I'm glad to reap the fruits of their labor, and it was a treat to be able to shoot such a unique scene.

Es war Winter, und es war kalt. Schnee war viel zu wenig. Dennoch freuten sich Kinder und auch große Kinder. Sie bauten einen Schneemann - mit dem was da war. Der Schneemann stand, er hielt dem Wetter stand, er hielt dem sich ankündigenten Frühling noch lange stand - bis er letztendlich doch verschwand. Was blieb, das diente Vögeln zum Nestbau. Nun ist nichts mehr schmutzig und grau. Die Wiesen grünen, Blumen blühen, und oft ist auch der Himmel blau. So ist der Gang der Dinge.

 

It was winter, and it was cold. Snow was too little. Nevertheless, children and big children were happy. They built a snowman - with what was there. The snowman stood, he withstood the weather, he withstood the approaching spring for a long time - until he finally disappeared. What remained was what birds used to build nests. Now nothing is dirty and gray. The meadows are green, flowers are blooming, and often the sky is blue. Such is the way of things.

We went looking for Dall Sheep and found some along the Seward Highway. It was late in the day sun-wise (but only 4 PM) and the tide was rushing in so I took this shot looking down the Seward Highway towards the end of Turnagain Arm, well past the peninsula of land jutting out from the left and extending far to the right in the image. The tidal variance on the Turnagain Arm is quite spectacular, similar to the Bay of Fundy on the East coast of Canada. Here it's beginning to cover the wet glacial till, a flour-like mixture, which has been deadly to those who wade out and get stuck in it.

 

Taken 15 November 2020 on the Seward Highway, outside Anchorage, Alaska.

Today I was super lucky to see an ABA Code 4 Fieldfare! The bird was first found and stunningly photographed by Roger Beardmore and his wife Nan and their friends Peter and Sharon Lawless. It is the second record for the province of BC.

 

It took just shy of 5 hours to get there and it was a lovely drive.One of my fave twitches as it is a bird I have always wanted to see in BC. It was a lifer for me! ABA bird # 696 and BC Bird # 425. Many Birders from the Pacific Coast will twitch this bird and especially BC listers because the last record was a one day single observer sighting from 2003 by my friend Larry Cowan.

 

I was really struck by the elegant beauty of this bird.

 

Good luck to all who twitch this bird go ASAP because all the berries on the bushes are being heavily eaten by a large flock of Bohemian Waxwings and some Robins he's loosely hanging with.

Newhaven Harbour, East Sussex. Waves from the open sea on the other side crash over the harbour arm during a storm.

At low tide, the shallow sea is almost empty. A water roller rolls at 20 to 25 km / hour into the silt at high tide. The silt is very dangerous because of drifting sand. In this bay Captain Cook had to turn back in his quest for the northwest passage. The bay got the name Turnagain Arm.

The morning view across Turnagain Arm between Anchorage and Seward requires an infinite number of stops with camera in hand.

When our niece and her hubby visited us with their boat for a few days, we were so fortunate to have a beautiful clear day, free of smoke from all the forest fires burning in B.C. at the time. This is a view at the end of Shuswap Lake's Seymour Arm. (17-09-16-8276)

Des armes, des chouettes, des brillantes,

Des qu’il faut nettoyer souvent pour le plaisir

Et qu’il faut caresser comme pour le plaisir

L’autre, celui qui fait rêver les communiantes

 

Des armes bleues comme la terre,

Des qu’il faut se garder au chaud au fond de l’âme,

Dans les yeux, dans le cœur, dans les bras d’une femme,

Qu’on garde au fond de soi comme on garde un mystère

 

Des armes au secret des jours,

Sous l’herbe, dans le ciel, et puis dans l’écriture,

Des qui vous font rêver très tard dans les lectures,

Et qui mettent la poésie dans les discours.

 

Des armes, des armes, des armes,

Et des poètes de service à la gâchette

Pour mettre le feu aux dernières cigarettes

Au bout d’un vers français brillant comme une larme.

I have seen this Agile wallaby in my backyard a few times. I have spoken to the local wildlife carer and he said that the missing arm and the deformed arm was probably caused by a dingo attack. She must find it difficult to get around because they do use their arms for mobility when they are not hopping with their legs and also cleaning themselves.

Alaska Railroad Train 120S bound for the barge in Whittier is seen hustling along the Turnagain Arm just south of Beluga Point behind a trio of the railroad's geeps. With two of the three remaining as delivered black geeps in this consist, this made for a memorable chase from Potter Marsh down to Portage.

1. Arm Check!, 2. Ah, still smells nice and fresh :-)

 

Thought you guys might enjoy my odd sense of humor this weekend. This is a diptych when junior was about a week old.

 

For those following the saga, I just found out that the Princess's simple handpainting has been used by this "ColourLovers" site in addition to the one I mentioned yesterday. The sad part about the site I found today is that it says it is for creative folks (who should know better). I wonder if these brainiacs (NOT!) realize that if they ask permission and use a photo they will likely drive new hits and possibly customers? I would call their approach "stupid" but the Princess would scold me for using a bad word ;-)

 

Not gonna let the losers get me down though :-) So feel the love and let's have some fun this weekend! Thanks for all the comments, visits and faves!

Hey there now did I hear your voice,

ringing out in the early morning?

Did I hear you singing right through the night,

out there while I was rolling?

 

Did you see my brother lying in the ditch,

knuckles all scraped and the powder on him

passing like a shadow right through the night,

through my days and through my mind?

 

Love is dead and truth is empty

it won't heal and it won't save me.

 

See that girl in the checked white skirt

I'll hold her tonight and maybe it'll work

 

Love is all,

a white dove in the snow,

passing through,

like a bright new moon.

Mama froze.

Women's blood once flowed.

 

Death runs deep in this family.

Write your song for the left and only.

Lost my arm in the first great war.

Wish I'd never learned that piano before.

 

See my brother drinking from the glass.

They say he died with his eyes wide open.

Poison flowing right through the veins.

Glass of milk fell from his hands.

 

Love is all.

Find the right way home.

Time is all.

Find the right way home.

Powder moon.

Find the right way home.

Time is all.

Find the right way home.

 

Hey there now did you hear my voice,

ringing out in the early morning?

Did you hear me singing right through the night?

I wonder if you'll ever get tired of this.

 

Death runs deep in this family.

Write your song for the left and only.

Lost my arm in the first great war.

Wish I'd never learned that piano before. (repeat)

 

Love is all.

Find the right way home.

Time is all

Find the right way home.

Powder moon

Find the right way home.

Time is all.

Find the right way home.
