Tropaeolum, Flame Creeper, grows up trees or through hedges spreading it's dense red flowers and bright green leaves. (Indeed it will climb over and up just about anything.) Seen here growing through a cropped leylandii hedge. It moves about the garden so we are never sure where it is going to appear.

I really appreciate any Views, Faves and Comments and I will try to visit your sites in due course. Thank you so much.

Thanks for your faves and comments!

A California Scrub-jay is climbing a redwood tree ✔️

As seen on a tiny patch of land, that nature had taken over by the edge of an inner city car park.

A westbound Burlington Northern Santa Fe freight train climbs Raton Pass at Gallinas, Colorado, on February 26, 1999, led by Santa Fe GE C40-8W No. 911 still looking pretty good in the railroad’s famous warbonnet livery.

Climb the mountain and get their good tiding, nature peace will flow into you as sunrise flows into trees, the wind will blow their own freshness and storm their energy while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of spring

It had been dining on Daisy Pollen.

Small springtime white flowers in the warm sunshine, with an even tinier insect making the most of this early food source.

A long country road to go, a steep and winding climb before reaching its destination.

Hill climb.

Another shot from yesterday.

Sedona, Arizona.

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!

C17 974 works up the grade from the Mary River on the return to Gympie

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.

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.

The small figures give good scale. this is the largest dune at Sossusvlei, Namibia.

Nearing Gympie station, C17 967 makes easy work of the load up the grade.

In the rose garden at the Ringling Museum. It was not the best day to photograph the roses because they had just been cut back and fertilized for the growing season, but I managed to find a few to capture.

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.
