I am so glad to see that someone hooked up a battery to this old tractor. And here I was afraid that it wouldn’t move because of the flat tires and all the rust. Apparently it was the battery. I guess a mechanic has determined that is all it needs to plow again.
I don’t know the make or the year of this tractor. It does seem to be all in one piece though.

To find these batteries I had to dig into my plastic box where I store all my expended batteries before taking them to the recycling. Most have come out of old film cameras so are not pristine. Before anyone asks the question, the one on the right is actually a stack of two batteries and if you look closely at the right side of the top one you will know what I mean by "not pristine"!

Went to Fort Warden to shoot the lighthouse with my drone but when I pulled it out of my car to fly, I discovered I had left the mini SD card at home. Plan "B" was to shoot some silly selfies in the dungeon like atmosphere of the nearby Kinzie battery.
This is an old battery for SLR, again on the stage!!! 😉
Have an Happy Crazy Tuesday, dear friends! 🙋♂️
Many thanks for all views, fav's - and particularly comments - all are greatly appreciated!
Happy Macro Mondays to you all!
The lighthouse that guards the entrance to Crescent City Harbor in northernmost California. The spit of land connecting the lighthouse’s island to the mainland is submerged by the tides most of the time, so bring your tide tables with you if you visit! You’ll need them to time your return.
A lemon (or lime) battery is a simple battery often made for the purpose of education. Typically, a piece of zinc metal and a piece of copper are inserted into a lemon and connected by wires. Power generated by reaction of the metals is used to power a small device such as a light-emitting diode. (Disclaimer: My hubby didn't really believe this would work, so he hooked up the diode to a pair of AA batteries, with a little resistor. The zinc nail, and the copper coil are just for photogenic effect!)

I was sitting at my desk last Friday when I got a call from the boss telling me to get my bum out the door and get a picture of the moon. I had no idea what he was talking about so I wandered around my building until I saw it. It was gorgeous!! Like a good employee I rounded everyone up for a look and while all were nicely distracted, I slipped out the backdoor. :-)
Totally uncomfortable with night photography, there I was in the freezing cold and wondering how to do this. There is a line in a song I like, "It is better to feel pain, than nothing at all," and let me tell you, it was painful. :-) Literally, my hands hurt, I could't feel my face, also no tripod. So I propped the camera up on a bollard and gave it a try. I lasted ten minutes max before I thought I would freeze to the earth.
Anyhow...here is the wolf moon. I wasn't sure if I was doing it justice but regardless, I loved being out there. Me and night photography.....a stubborn love.

I'm snowed in today but cozy, happy, and hopped up on coffee. Wishing you all the same good Friday feels!
Originally built as an 1870s System battery for the defense of San Francisco Harbor under the supervision of Colonel George Henry Mendell. Construction took place between 1871 and June of 1873 but the battery was not armed and the suspension of coastal defense funding in 1876 placed the battery in caretaker status without any cannon in place. Although some official documents refer to the nine gun emplacement as Battery Ridge, the builder of the battery referred to the four north most emplacements as Battery Ridge and the five south most emplacements as Battery Cliff.
The battery was built with emplacements for nine smoothbore 15″ Rodman cannons mounted on iron Barbette carriages. The five south most gun emplacements were 6″ center pintle mounts while the four north most emplacements were 6″ forward pintle mounts. Two earth covered brick magazines were built for the south most cannons and two for the north most cannons. The battery had a commanding view of the Golden Gate and, at 445′, was one of the highest seacoast batteries in the country.

Located at the northern end of the Odaiba reclaimed land, this is Odaiba in the narrow sense. It is an off-shore islet protected by stone walls and installed with cannons, which is conserved as a historic monument.
Planted trees are Japanese black pine (Pinus thunbergii). It is planted all over Odaiba.
In response to the provocation by the US "Black Ships" in 1853, Tokugawa Shogunate ordered Egawa Hidetatsu Tarouzaemon (江川英龍太郎左衛門) to construct a set of battery to protect the capital of Japan from foreign powers. He barely completed the difficult task in eight months and died soon after the completion probably due to the hard work.
He was originally a local magistrate in Nirayama at the foot of Izu Peninsula, Shizuoka prefecture. He became interested in the coastal defence matters, learned Western gunnery and techniques in Nagasaki, and eventually involved in the Tokugawa shogunate with this matter.
He realised the necessity to introduce modern iron foundry techniques to produce modern arsenal, for which he auto-didactically constructed the first reverberatory furnace in Japan in his home town of Nirayama.
Egawa's residence is conserved in his hometown. It is a traditional wooden structure constructed in the 17th century without a nail (flic.kr/p/HaHVkF), which is interesting as he is considered the father of modern iron foundry in Japan.

The first day of operation of a new flow of stone from Shap Quarry destined for the construction site of the British Volt 'gigafactory' at North Blyth.
The Newcastle Carlisle line sees very little freight since the demise of coal traffic so a new (if perhaps temporary), flow of traffic is most welcome. The first day saw 66798 collect the empty wagons from Thrislington Quarry, running via the Durham coast and N&C to Shap in the morning. The return was an early evening offering. Perhaps not ideal as it was running straight out of the sun!
66798 heads the 6E80 16:49 Shap Summit Quarry to North Blyth along the banks of the Tyne at Hexham, on the 4th July.
