My sister and I passed by this power plant as we were driving home from the beach a while back. We both found it quite an eerie sight. I tried to bring that mood into this piece.

Many thanks for your kind visit and support; I wish you a wonderful day, please stay safe and healthy!
The adult males are difficult to find. During the migration they are the first to leave on their road South. I felt fortunate to catch this one zipping around the backyard the last of August.

When it started raining on our park hike he drove down the main road with our windows opened to see what we could find. The trails are so wet that most of the deer are right on the roadside.

"Paris Streets 400, Louboutin Attraction." Dedicated to Angela, a most stylish and fantastic wife, mother, and daughter-in-law.
On this day last year we were exploring the back roads of the Palouse in eastern Washington. I think this barn with the collapsed roof has been photographed many times, but, what the hell, here is mine to add to the collection :)

Howard Solomon's 1990's project. The Boat on the Moat is a 60ft replica of a 16th century Portuguese Galleon to serve as the castles restaurant. After Solomon finished building the boat he built a lighthouse to handle the overflow. Four generations of Solomons have lived in the castle. Howard Solomon passed away in 2016, but the family still run the restaurant and the Florida attraction. The food is delicious by the way!
Happy Fence Friday and have a blessed weekend!
The fortifications and walls of Dubrovnik are most interesting tourist attraction of this city. They are about 1940 m long, up to 25 m high and 1.5 to 6 m thick. The walls, built from the 9th to the 17th century, additionally strengthen five bastions and towers.
The first walls were probably built at the end of 8th century. The rapid development of city, and especially the appearance of aggressive neighbors, prompted the citizens of Ragusa to build more powerful fortifications. In 867, the city was attacked by Arab troops. Later, many times the walls defended the city against hostile invasions. They were also rebuilt and modernized many times.
Outside the walls are two fortresses (Lovrijenac and Revelin), which were the first line of defense of city.

Fortyfikacje i mury Dubrownika stanowią najciekawszą atrakcję turystyczną tego miasta. Mają około 1940 m długości, wysokość do 25 m i grubość w granicach 1,5 - 6 m. Mury, budowane od IX do XVII wieku, wzmacnia dodatkowo pięć bastionów oraz wieże.
Pierwsze mury zbudowano prawdopodobnie pod koniec VIII wieku. Szybki rozwój miasta, a zwłaszcza pojawienie się agresywnych sąsiadów skłoniło obywateli Ragusy do wzniesienia potężniejszych umocnień. W 867 roku miasto zostało zaatakowane przez wojska arabskie. Później jeszcze wielokrotnie mury broniły miasto przed wrogimi najazdami. Były również wielokrotnie przebudowywane i modernizowane.
Po za murami są zlokalizowane dwie fortece (Lovrijenac i Revelin), które były pierwszą linią obrony miasta.

Each day gets a bit scarier on the planet. I was thinking that they would contain this right off the hop and stop all travel right at the start of this. I think it would have made a big difference. But no. So many died a 100 years ago before massive travel.
Be safe. Keep on Truckin'
