THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY COMMENTS!!!
reading one of his books, i liked it a lot better when i didn't know it was about his heroin binge after accidenatly killing his wife. i love sad books, music and movies but for some reason it made me feel guilty.
Random stuff from my room include 99 cent fake flowers, polaroids from winter break, my lovely geometry text book, a clock found in my basement, a 1966 senior pin that was owned but the guitarist of the dictators, a lacy bra, a lollipop bought at a bright eyes concert which i didn't like the taste of but won't throw out, red lipstick, a coke bottle, and a plasmatics poster
I have lovely memories of this walk, cuckoos, thrushes and early Spring birdsong have lifted our spirits on many a sunny day!
Technically, this is a planetary fantasy. Classic Frank Frazetta cover. Found in the basement of the Harvard bookstore: www.harvard.com/
So I think my P6 has finally had it. Which is pretty depressing. At some point I will try and get a few quid together to find another one - hopefully in better condition than the ones I have (none of which work) For all their weight and solidness they are delicate things....
I still quite like what it's done here, even if it's pretty f**ked up.

You might say in "Texas Speak" that this is just around the block from where we live. Well, first time we've taken since mid-September to spend in leisure just enjoying being. Moved in, finished furnishing, installing, unpacking, putting away, doing what needed to be done...." At our age moving was a huge endevour. I'm so glad it's over. However, I had to throw in one photo of what's happening all around us - CONSTRUCTION. I guess you might say the handful of us that are in the neighborhood are the founding families. By the end of January I'll have next door neighbors and the house under construction will probably be finished. I see deer regularly and would see them more often if I would get up early. So, yes, I've picked up my cameras and plan to keep up the habit.
It is April, 1986 and we are at Burroughs, Georgia looking south on the CSX mainline. This is former ACL trackage and where the SAL once crossed at grade. After the SCL merger, the Diamond was eventually removed and a connection track was placed in service here to route S Line Trains to the A Line.
(Both routes were parallel for several miles) A new connection was also built at Ogeechee to connect back to the S line. Both routes were used by SCL up into the CSX era when the former SAL was abandoned south of Riceboro. We are looking at CTC Signals and in the distance is a flashing Signal for a southbound Train coming down the old SAL from Savannah. This was and remains a very interesting place. Trains approaching from the south can be seen for many miles due to the ruler straight trackage. In 1985, when the former SAL route was still in use, approaching Trains could be heard coming up to the connection at Ogeechee, about 2 miles down track from here...then the Headlight would suddenly appear. We saw this, so I know the route was still in use in mid 1985. But traffic was rerouted sometime after that as the line was closed by the end of 1985. The Signal Bridge was removed in 1992. All the poles are gone but there are plenty of Trains using both routes here today!!! About 30 plus Trains go by here daily. Burroughs is about 10 miles south of Savannah. It was pitch dark outside the night I shot this "time exposure"
but the sky is quite lit up for reasons unknown to me. This was about a 3 minute exposure.
