The approach to Ibrox from the subway station - the North East side. The clouds looked threatening, but it didn't actually rain until later in the day.

I understand that a man and woman got married, both dressed as grooms, and everyone else in the wedding party wore a wedding dress. Spectacular!

 

Four brass bands took over Fort Greene Park. The Hungry March Band, the Rude Mechanical Orchestra, the What Cheer? Brigade, and A Lesser Panda, four of the most titanic, charismatic, enigmatic, never sycophantic, and always up your antic brass bands the Northeast has to offer. It'll make you want to have grandkids so you can tell them about it.

 

All hyberbole aside, yeah!

I had taken a few photos of the tracks and the snow, and then I heard this train's horn in the distance. I stuck around for a couple of minutes so I could photograph it. Here, you can see the locomotive's lights reflecting on the rails.

Soon after, a thunderstorm of epic proportions hit our camp and sent tarps, tents, and people flying.

N455 'City of Swan Hill' curves and approaches Kilmore East Station awaiting to collect its next token authority to Tallarook, on the lunchtime Goulburn Valley Limited to Shepparton.

Taken by my wife as we crossed the Second Severn Crossing back into England. It costs £5.70 to get into Wales, but it's free to get back!!!

The crossing is 3.2 miles long, consisting of a single central navigation span over the "Shoots" channel and approach viaducts on either side. The Shoots channel is the deepest section along the width of the Severn Estuary, and a longer span was required to ease the passage of shipping under this section. The central bridge section, called the Shoots Bridge, is of cable-stayed design and the central span (between the bridge pylons) is 456.3 m in length. The approach viaducts are of a segmental bridge design. Its Welsh end is near Sudbrook, Monmouthshire and its English end at Severn Beach in South Gloucestershire. The crossing forms a gentle S shape and near the English side crosses over the top of the Severn Tunnel.

 

The sides of the bridge are fitted with special railings to reduce lateral wind loads coming from the Severn Estuary onto the traffic and this has reduced the number of times that speed restrictions have been needed. The overall design of the new crossing makes it more resistant to high winds than the old Severn Bridge.

A trip to the wonderful Lofoten Islands for hiking and the midnight sun.

 

After a night in Oslo we flew to Bodo to catch a ferry to Svolvaer, where spent our first days exploring.

Flaps down lower and lock gear adjust for crosswind, LOL.

Cut this way it seems like this were the final steps before reaching the royal palace.

 

Actually it is just the State Capitol and the end of state street (decorated for Christmas). State Street is a pedestrian walk way that leads from the heart of the UW campus to the Capitol.

 

The scene looks eerie and alone. Why? Well....it was 4 am. I am definitely a night owl.....a creature of the night judging by the direction this photo stream is taking:)

Clouds rise over Crater Lake as storm approaches in July, 2007. When you first see the lake you will get the biggest "Wow" of the national park system. Nothing can prepare you for the sight of the "blue" water on a sunny, calm day. I just doesn't look real.
