As they were packing up their things to get ready for the return to school, Cam and Lyn were excited and decided to take a moment to be playful! Gripping a camera, and posing for the shot they totally messed up their smiles but the intent was the same. See you all soon on our new adventures!

Making quite the impression blocking Vermont Route 103 for a moment is another look at the Vermont Rail System plow extra. Here is the caption I wrote at the time.
Winter Storm Gail slammed into the northeast on Wednesday and Thursday and deposited record breaking snowfall throughout the region. This was New England's first real snowfall of the year and led to the hope among railfans that the holy grail of railroading would be out....the plow train!
While most railroads in the region chose to open their rights of way with MofW equipment or light engine moves the Vermont Rail System realized that the 40 inches of snow on top of the Green Mountains was too much to handle. So to that end the regular 263 freight crew was assigned to head east from Rutland at 0900 on Friday with a single unit pushing Green Mountain Railroad wedge plow X106 (blt. by the Russell Snowplow Co. in 1954 for the Central Vermont).
I intercepted them around Ludlow and chased them down the mountain to Bellows Falls where the plow was spun on the North Walpole turntable to wing back west. Unfortunately the chase did not yield any dramatic snow blasting shots as they seemed to not exceed 10 MPH at any crossings that had large berms and in fact in most cases they stopped before entering the crossing. According to the radio chatter this appeared to be because their sole unit, GMTX 2205 (EMD GP38-2 blt. May 1972 as PC 7948) could not generate enough air pressure to operate the wings (or even the horn in a few cases!), so they would pause to let the compressor recharge the main reservoir before proceeding.
But regardless of those issues the bluebird skies, three feet of snow, and bucolic Vermont countryside yielded some great images. The only thing I wish is that they used a red Vermont Railway unit for a true Christmas card scene Here they are on the Green Mountain Railroad's Bellows Falls Subdivision (ex Rutland) mainline at MP B24.3 having just crossed busy Vermont Route 103 east of the ski town of Ludlow.

A 3rd Marine Regiment color guard takes its place, July 25, 2015, during a repatriation ceremony in Tarawa, Kiribati. The ceremony honored the remains of approximately 36 Marines who fought and died during the Battle of Tarawa during World War II, and were loaded onto a C-130J Hercules aircraft to be transported back home to the United States.

SHIPtember
One Month.
One SHIP.
One Hundred studs (plus).
Rules: Build SHIP must be 100 studs or longer between September 1st and October 1st. That's it!
How do I enter? Simple! Start building your SHIP starting on Sept 1st, and start posting WIP shots as you go so everyone can all praise your guts for building a SHIP in a month!
WIP and your final glory shots should be posted in the LEGO SHIP group:
www.flickr.com/groups/the-shipyard
What about [insert standard ship critiera]? We don't care, as long as it's a 100 studs [+] and you build it all in SHIPtember we'll be happy...
Though there will be Trophies for people that build a really good SHIP... ;)
Trophies?!?! Yup. Trophies. There will be a number of custom trophies that will be awarded in various categories. Categories will be Judged by a cabal of SHIPists who are not participating in the building (or will not be eligible for trophies/prizes). And there will also be a limited of Engraved/Printed Badges for participants
Engraved/Printed Badges!?!?. Yup, we got those covered too. What's a trophy without a nice engraved brick? And we got some extras for SHIP Builders, and maybe a few for non builders.
Wait? why are non builders getting prizes too? The way I see it, SHIP building doesn't have to be a solitary affair. It seems to be one of the few builds that people typically post WIP shots leading up to the final completed SHIP. Furthermore comments and critiques offered by the larger community may actually be incorporated into the final SHIP. So I'm hoping all builders and those that can't build will help encourage the courageous few who will be attempting to build a really cool SHIP in a month.
FAQ:
What is a SHIP? a S.H.I.P. is a Seriously Huge Investment in Parts and is at minimum 100 studs in length. Alternatively it has also been dubbed a S.eriously H.uge I.nvestement in T.ime...
What scale should the SHIP be? Any scale you want, Minifig, Micro, Frog, Chicken, whatever floats your SHIP - as long as it's 100+ studs.
Does it have to have an interior? It's up to you, It's not required, but definitely bonus marks if you do. Some contend that it's not a real SHIP without a kick butt interior.
Does it have to be swooshible? Again it's up to you. It's definitely high execution points if you do. But given the size and complexity of ships these days it may not be feasible for swooshing- especially given the time constraints. Short answer: no, longer answer - swooshing is fun.
What is the current record for the longest SHIP? I believe it's Adrian Drake's Tribunal at 487 studs... let's just say if someone can top that in SHIPtember, I have something very special in store for them.... not that it's a challenge... but I bet you can't do it.
100 studs in a month? that's easy! What else can I do to make this challenge actually hard? Well there Mr. or Ms. Overachiever - you can always make it BIGGER, or build a full interior, or make it swooshible, or add play features, or add motorized functions or all the above. You have one month... impress us.
What if I build a 1x100 stud ship? Then I will laugh and mock you till next SHIPtember and disqualify you for all the awesome trophies and prize(s).
It's August, why are you announcing this now? While you're not allowed to start building your SHIP till September, part of the SHIP building process is the preparation of building a SHIP, so we decided to give a one month 'sort/prep' lead time. So start mentally thinking of how you're going to make your SHIP / pre-cracklink.

I just pointed my cam towards this group of people not knowing what would happen or what the outcome would become.
I don't know, i just kinda like it how it turned out.

October 2013 will mark the dawn of a new era in literature. Be a part of the revolution. Be a part of the future. Pre-order now from amazon (In case you haven't already)
I am almost there. Still not in London. Will be visiting your streams very soon but will be slow ;) still very much in holiday mood
In honor of Thanksgiving and the release of The Hawkeye show, I unveiled the first teaser for “The Grim Tales of Hawkeye and Clint”. A series that will be released next year which is set in my very own PhantasmVerse. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
No longer do men roll into Laramie Wyoming on a horse - nowadays it's the steel horse. A rather large switchyard with trains passing through every 10 to 15 minutes with coal or crops from the west.
It also looked like it has a large portion of railroad repair area. This is looking South out of city area, with eastern Sun coming from my left.
