In November the Danube valley and some tributary valleys are covered with fog all day long. Climbing a hill is often sufficient to see the sun. This image was image near Gossersdorf above the Kinsach valley.
No stranger to these rails, a former Soo Line SD60 curves through the beautiful bluff country of the northern Mississippi River watershed just south of Lansing, Iowa with a train of loaded auto racks bound for Kansas City.
The hill above, coloured green
The hill above, where is seen
The tree of love and of bliss
Where you share, a lovely kiss
That does thrill your tender heart
Makes your defences, slowly part
Against the tree that rises high
As the love birds , they do fly
Over the hill, coloured green
Where your passion is now seen
Pressed against the shaking tree
Where its seed is now set free
Somewhere above Yellowstone. I wanted to see some new locations in Yellowstone away from all the people. I found this trail that wondered through some of the hills and offered this great view.
The temperature eventually got above zero! Following a week in the freezer the thaw descended and the sun melted the frost where it could touch. Another from the Beacon woods.

A one-seat, powered parachute (or ultralight) aircraft flying above the colorful trees at Brenton Arboretum near Dallas Center, Iowa. These ultralight aircraft are popular and a common sight in this particular area.

Inside story on the shot: We had begun ascending the ridge above, when we all looked back at this view. When Chris and I commented that it'd be a superb shot but it would work better with scale, Simon backtracked down the slope and climbed out to the lookout. Now that is what I call doing anything for the right photo! From afar it may look precarious but he assured me at the time that it was not difficult ground at all.
Fantasy Faire charms our spirits for a week at a time year after year. It reminds me of The Smithsonian Institute because you just can’t really ever see it all. Thanks goodness for all the photographers, writers, bloggers and shoppers who present their photographs not only for the week, but all year long and ever after.
My favorite first stop has always been Fairelands Junction where I melt over the presentation teleporters which display a glimpse of what you will find behind the door.
Fairlands Junction is where you whisper…..”decisions, decisions, decisions”!
Of course, there’s plenty more there….more to come….

Had a wonderful trip visiting the Black Hills, Badlands and Devil's Tower.
Enjoyed watching this small group of bulls wander about with this impressive geological wonder nearby.
Devils Tower (also known as Bear Lodge) is a laccolithic butte, composed of igneous rock in northeastern Wyoming, above the Belle Fourche River. It rises 1,267 feet (386 m) above the river, standing 867 feet (264 m) from summit to base. The summit is 5,112 feet (1,558 m) above sea level.
Devils Tower National Monument was the first United States national monument, established on September 24, 1906, by President Theodore Roosevelt. The monument's boundary encloses an area of 1,347 acres (545 ha).
And yes, people do climb it.
Have a wonderful weekend!
