A westbound Santa Fe freight climbs Ash Hill at Klondike, California, while crossing the Mojave Desert on March 9, 1995. Powering the train is GE C40-8W No. 851, GE C44-9W No. 610 and EMD SD45-2B No. 5514.
I wish you all a wonderful weekend! I will be off for a couple of days. Will try and catch up when I get back!
Made by my spouse decades ago when then-Storage Technology gave away tiny chips. (If you're into geeky 'where are they now queries', Storage Tech was acquired by Sun Microsystems, which was later acquired by Oracle Corporation.)
But back to our wee 2cm chip. He is climbing a tiny piece of driftwood. That's a winter leaf or two behind him (he has very long horns or antennae, hence his gender). Bokeh balls come from a crumpled piece of foil some distance away. Tried this outdoors, but a strong wind toppled the fearless mountain goat.
I think perhaps Howard made EPROM earrings for me around the same time (see first comment).
In January 2022 I asked for help and a Flickr support hero removed both of my accounts from the Explore algorithm. I feel more relaxed and my jaw no longer hurts. I’m grateful to SmugMug for saving Flickr, and I have nothing against Explore; it just is not for me—especially during this pandemic.
The one on the bottom looks like she's climbing an invisible ladder
Hope you can see this on a large screen. The one on top is a crossbill
Small springtime white flowers in the warm sunshine, with an even tinier insect making the most of this early food source.
The climb up the Niagara escarpment begins for both of these trains. CP 247-31 ascends the 2% percent grade up the Hamilton sub as CN A43531-31 starts to climb the grade to Copetown. Sometimes the stars align and things work out. Not a bad way to end 2020. Cheers to health, happiness, and prosperity in 2021!
67010 makes a fine sight as it climbs the bank at Llanellen heading for Cardiff. I wanted to grab another Class 67 working here before the foliage really gets going. 1V46 14:30 Manchester Piccadilly to Cardiff Central.

I obtained this surreal view of Utah Lake in the distance below by climbing a mountain in my truck. Quads and side-by-sides were surprised that a truck made it there. Although not very deep, the water is an unusual color and has a bacteria growth that deters swimming.
Zoom in to see the snow-covered mountain peak in the distance.

At Pashley Manor Gardens you will discover 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden. These graceful gardens, on the border of Sussex and Kent, are family owned and maintained – visitors often express delight at the attention to detail displayed throughout and the intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
All the ingredients of the English Country Garden are present – sweeping herbaceous borders, ha-ha, well maintained lawns, box hedges, espaliered rose walk, historic walled garden, inspiring kitchen garden, venerable trees and the Grade I listed house as a backdrop. The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan. Then, of course, the plants! Borders overflowing with perennials and annuals – the look changing through the seasons, but always abundantly filled, and each garden ‘room’ planted in a different colour theme.
Pashley is also renowned for fantastic displays of tulips, roses and dahlias. Our annual Tulip Festival features more than 48,000 tulips this year! During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. Then in late summer our Dahlia Days event transforms the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.
Add to all this a Café and Terrace with excellent garden views, serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes; Sculpture and Art Exhibitions; a Gift Shop with Plant Sales; and a friendly, knowledgeable team waiting to welcome you, and the recipe for a wonderful day out is complete.

The next five day's I will be over to the other side of the country for my real life job.
So no second life, no taking pictures.and not posting.
This will be the case for four weeks on weekday's.
With a Second Life inventory exploding with stuff to show I have to let real life get my full priority.
In the meantime have fun while you shop until you drop.

This truck must have a magnetic personality the way it is attracting all this metal junk!
Happy Truck Thursday!
The 672 job from Watertown, SD climbs the Coteau des Prairie near South Shore, SD as it treks eastbound early morning on its way to Willmar, MN. This large rise in the land left over from the glacial era causes the railroads that cross it to bend and curve as they are forced to climb it making for some really scenic shots.
Two Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep ( Ovis canadensis canadensis) climb up the walls of North Fork Canyon west of Cody, Wyoming. The sheep winter along the lower elevations of the Absaroka Mountains.
After not really going anywhere for nearly 3 months, I took an opportunity in the weather to climb a local hill called Bennachie. Although we have no snow at all at the house, this is only a 10 minute drive from where I live, and the slightly higher altitude means it is covered in snow. We are only low down at the moment so let's climb!
