Grosmont is one of the stations on the North York Moors railway. These fire buckets are on the station platform.
I like the striking colours and simple repetition of the three buckets.
Walking down Mott St. in Chinatown, NY
I bump into this bucket of frogs
Live frogs, hanging out
chillin...
waiting to be picked up
with the silvery tongs, then transferred into a plastic bag...

Expired Fuji Velvia 100F slide film, cross processed in Tetenal C41 chemistry. The cross-processing leaves a green cast on the film, which after scanning and converting to a positive image, gives a red/mauve cast.
This Classically Designed Belgian Art Deco Silver-plate Wine Bucket has a 3-tier shape reminiscent of an inverted Crysler Building. Straight from the Jazz Age, this is the type of object of opulent living I can picture F. Scott Fitzgerald drinking his bubbly from. And indeed, this bucket has been the belle of the ball, many a night. The interior is well used with a gorgeous turquoise tarnish that one can only acquire after more than half a century of parties lasting long into the night. While one could consider re-plating it to bring back it’s original splendor, I prefer the look as it is, with reminder of yester-years.

Bucket O' FriesWhile at the Roscoe Village Burger Fest in Chicago's Roscoe Village Neighborhood, my wife pointed out the Bucket O' Fries. I feel a lot better about making the photo than eating the contents.
The final year of the 1960 full-size Fords was 1964, with the 300 base model again using the Custom name. The base Galaxie was now called "Custom 500." The Sports Roof was continued for all hardtop coupes. In addition, new sloped rooflines were introduced for all non-wagon '64 big Fords. Interior trim was new, including new thin-shell bucket seats for all XL models. The instrument panel remained the same, except for the ignition switch, which was moved from left of the steering column, to the right. External styling was once again refreshed, with a more sculptured body that was supposed to reduce drag at high speeds, no doubt done for NASCAR.
Under the hood,the 427 CID (7.0 L) engine carried on the high performance duties. Ford again took the 427-equipped Galaxie to the racetracks in serious fashion in 1964, building a number of lightweight, fiberglass equipped cars just for that purpose. These competed with success not only in North America but also in the United Kingdom. Initial doubts as to their competitiveness in Britain were short-lived; despite their great size and weight compared to the opposition, the Ford 427 engine gave them a competitive power-to-weight ratio and the handling was better than might have been supposed. They were raced in Europe reasonably successfully.
Late in the year Ford introduced their new engine challenger, the SOHC 427 Cammer, Though it is not documented it is believed a few may have found their way onto the street. (This engine was only available to racers through the dealer network or from the manufacturer, none were ever factory installed) Rated at over 600 hp (447 kW), this is possibly the most powerful engine ever fitted to a production car by an American manufacturer. NASCAR changed the rules, however, requiring (instead of hundreds) thousands of production examples in service to qualify for the next season, and Ford decided against producing the Cammer in that quantity. Fears of liability concerns and the bad publicity possibilities in giving the public a car that was so dangerously powerful are often cited as reasons, but it might simply have been that Ford doubted that an engine so unsuited to street use could sell in such numbers.
The 1964s represent a high point in early 1960s Ford quality, durability, and styling. They were not only enormously popular, but proved to be so durable that many continued to run well past the 100,000 mile mark without a major overhaul. Holman & Moody continued to supply high-performance equipment for the big '64 Fords, giving them wins at NASCAR.

I (reluctantly) accepted Jeremiah’s ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and nominate my friends Matt, Klara, and their son Mason to participate and raise awareness for ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease.
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN - You can pick it up and carry it wherever you want! Doesn't hold much water, though...
Thanks to Jim Lister from Wasilla, Alaska for his Alaskan Grow Bucket SIP. Testing one out this season.
A 5 Gal bucket, plastic colander, and fabric shopping bag is all it takes to make an Alaska Grow Bucket. Get free instructions at alaskagrowbuckets.com/
A comment from my Facebook page on May 9th.
This SIP design is particularly ingenious as Jim uses the technique of "air root pruning" and has linked the buckets together so they water themselves. That's what I like simple and elegant. It's the 18th century English coffee house all over again...the web really allows one to tinker with other folk's ideas.
I made this stump bucket for a skid steer loader from my scrap metal supply. The tops of the teeth are made from a car spring which is hardened. The thick scraper across the bottom front was from part of a city snow plow section that is not only thick but hardened. I ran into a concrete wall with the bucket and it did not affect it all. I removed a 12" stump plus the roots with this. It was about an 8 foot circle of wood and roots. I copied this bucket from an ebay version.
My usual bucket is too wide and has no teeth and cannot dig very well in clay or frozen ground. I hope this bucket will solve these problems.

I have also made a backhoe attachment, a log splitter and a boom grapple for my Bobcat. They are heavy and require some work to attach. The boom grapple design can be seen on the internet, possibly ebay too if it is still on there. It was invented in Florida to load hurricane debris into high sided trucks. It extends the upper reach of the loading ability. My design is only slightly different. See the following for the boom grapple I made: flickr.com/photos/21702692@N05/2156494569/
The backhoe design is similar to one sold by Northern Tools but mine has a bigger bucket: flickr.com/photos/21702692@N05/2199209170/

The C-45 is a military transport version of the Beechcraft Model 18, which began its 32 year production lifespan in 1937. It was the result of Walter Beech’s desire in 1935 to build a low-wing monoplane to compete with the commercial biplanes of the day, like the Curtis Condor.
​
The C-45 was first ordered by the U.S. Army Air Corps for use as a staff transport. It was continually modified throughout its production life with changes like increased seating capacity and a longer nose. A navigator training version was put in service as the AT-7, and a float-version was designated the AT-7A.
​
The Model 18 was further modified during 1941 as the advanced trainer AT-11, equipped with a small bomb bay, transparent nose section, and two .30 cal. machine guns. This variant was used for bombardier and gunnery training. A photo reconnaissance model, designated the F-2, was the final wartime variant of the Model 18 The U.S. Navy and Marine Corps also acquired more than 1500 Model 18s during World War II, with respective identifiers of JRB and SNB.

The tweed on the exterior is the perfect backdrop for the brown and pink cotton on the inside.
This is the largest size bucket at 8" in diameter.
I have lived in South Korea, Alabama, Texas, and Kentucky. I have traveled to 25 countries, and 49 states and enjoyed many cruises, train and road trips. Hadley gave me a gorgeous Diamond ring when we married. I don’t care about clothes, a big house, or a fancy car. But I have been wanting really nice pots and pans since I started cooking last year. So… I am delighted to announce that last week, I crossed this wish list item off. I have an awesome set of Calphalon pots and pans. Next is a new oven….ODC: Bucket List
This is the bucket brigade used to water new plants and seeds. A bucket was passed from person to person down a long line. (Left line) Patsy Johnson, Laura Johnston Kohl (in kerchief), Lois Ponts, Christine Lucientes. (On right, second person, moustache) Tim Tupper Jones.

Who needs a drum kit when you can get the same effect from buckets and saucepans!! He was brilliant really entertaining!
Project Flickr - Week 28 - Different Camera
I actually took this shot yesterday and I happened to have my other camera with me. My bridge camera is a whole lot easier to carry about than my dslr ! Hope nobody minds me adding to the group.
