The goldfinch's are passing through again. Looks like they are getting ready to head north. Unlike the bunting, they probably will stick around a few days. At least that's what they normally do during this time of year.
I love my backyard! There is a lot going on back there today. I am supposed to be doing inside chores. I have a contractor coming over to deliver some stuff after while and I need to be ready for the delivery. But I really just want to play outside. Why do I have to be an adult today? Oh wait, because I asked the contractor to come over. I want the job done :)
I hope you are having a delightful day, happy snapping.

Contractor Norman Hudson called me on February 18, 2021 to tell me he was in line to get the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. He died two days later, at 77 years of age. He thus fulfilled his often-expressed desire never to retire.
Contractors working on the new Mississippi River Bridge at Lansing Iowa imploded the center and east spans of the old Black Hawk Bridge on December 19th, 2025, severing the 94-year connection of this classic truss structure. The bridge was originally to remain open while it's replacement was completed, but issues with too much movement of the old bridge while the new was being constructed nearby meant that it was closed a couple years earlier than originally intended.
The classic bridge has long been an interesting experience to cross for generations of area residents, and a neat bridge to photograph. Since it's demise was well-publicized, on a recent trip to La Crosse in early December I took the "long way 'round" and got a chance to see it one last time. Conveniently I arrived town right as a CPKC train 883 did - coal loads for the Portage, WI power plant, with the rear DPU seen shoving under the west span. The bridge has been a great prop and occasional photo platform for lots of railroad photographers over the years.
Some "drop under" sunlight on a crisp winter morning helped to light up the old bridge nicely. Out on the water, the barge pushing away from the camera is a construction barge, but the small one in the center right coming towards us is the temporary car ferry the DOT is utilizing as a replacement for the bridge. It's free and runs roughly every half hour in each direction - if you are in the area I highly recommend taking a ride across sometime in the next year or so as the new bridge takes shape above it's path. And there aren't many chances to ride on the upper Mississippi River for free!
When the bridge was imploded, they left the west span and will remove that with more typical methods because it spans the railroad and is near houses. The new bridge is starting to take shape behind the pier seen in this photo, and will have a similar truss look to the old structure (the result of a big push by the local community that actually influenced the DOT to change the design from a more standard arch bridge type early on in their planning). But since it won't have a deck of open-grate metal you could see down through, nor the suddenly vertical break-over on either side of the main center arch span that gave one a bit of a jolt when driving over it, the new bridge will likely lack a bit of the "character" of the old.

Hotel Europe is a six-story heritage building located at 43 Powell Street (at Alexander) in the Gastown area of Vancouver, British Columbia. The building was commissioned by hotelier Angelo Calori and built in 1908-1909 by Parr and Fee Architects. Situated on a triangular lot, the building is designed in the flatiron style. It was the first reinforced concrete structure to be built in Canada and the earliest fireproof hotel in Western Canada. Contractors had to be brought in from Cincinnati, Ohio for the necessary expertise; the Ferro-Concrete Construction Company began this project six years after constructing the first tall concrete building in the world.
With funding from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, the building was renovated in 1983 as affordable housing with A. Ingre and Associates as the project designers. The residential units are now managed by the Affordable Housing Society.[1][2] A beer parlour formerly existed below the ground floor, which included areaways extending underneath the above sidewalks. To prevent a cave-in from the weight of pedestrians and above ground traffic, the City of Vancouver filled the areaway in with pea gravel at a cost of $215,000, which presumably can be easily removed in the event of future restoration.[3]
The Hotel Europe was one of the filming locations for the suspense movie The Changeling. In it, the building houses the Seattle Historical Society, but the hotel sign can be seen on the right side facade of the building in some takes. Some scenes are set on its roof terrace. Hotel Europe was also a filming location in the 1994 epic drama film Legends of the Fall.

Ok, So I've had this Fuji X100F for a couple of weeks now and can't make up my mind if I love it or hate it. On the plus side it's small, mirrorless and inconspicuous, meaning I can get away with a bit more street photography without being glared at!
However, the ergonomics of the camera are painful. The grip if far to small, and as a result it's easy to accidentally knock one of the four buttons on the command dial. I've disabled two of them, but it's impossible to disable the "drive" button. As a result today I managed to knock the camera into "filters" mode without realizing it and spent 10 minutes trying to work out what I'd done. Somehow it also switch from raw mode to jpg mode at the same time which I didn't realize until I got home, at which point I gave the camera a stream of four letter words.
Just some combos, I've been thinking about getting some new modern parts, now that BA released some sweet stuff, I think I will.
Another ruthless killer.
Have a great time guys.Thank you for visit.

The Tadich Grill is an American seafood restaurant located in San Francisco, California. Founded in 1849, it is the oldest running restaurant in California. Based in the Financial District, the restaurant sits on 240 California Street. The dining experience features Croatian-style cooking techniques that include grilling seafood over mesquite- and charcoal-broilers for varying flavor profiles and uniform broiling.
The original restaurant opened in 1849 as a coffee stand on Clay Street in San Francisco, California. It was founded by Nikola Budrovich, Frano Kosta, and Antonio Gasparich, three immigrants from Croatia, who launched their restaurant as "Coffee Stand". The establishment was renamed "New World Coffee Stand", following a move to the New World Market, a local market place in San Francisco.
In 1887, their restaurant was purchased by and renamed after John Tadich, a Croatian hailing from Stari Grad on the Island of Hvar. In 1928, Tadich sold the restaurant to another Croatian family, the Buichs. In 1967, the restaurant moved to its present location at 240 California Street; this was after Wells Fargo bought the Clay Street location for redevelopment. The current space is one-third larger than the original, and the Buiches worked with contractors to recreate the Art Deco interior design that the Clay Street space had. All of the moldings and woodwork were copied, and the original Clay Street bar was moved to the present location. The restaurant reopened within one month of moving.
In 1925, Louis Buich implemented Croatian-style cooking at the Tadich grill, requiring chefs to use a mesquite broiler for cooking seafood. The restaurant's use of the grilling technique became popular, and in a single day the restaurant can go through four 40-pound bags of mesquite charcoal. Little has changed in regards to the restaurant's cooking methods, and the restaurant has had only seven chefs since 1925 (as of 2011). After operating at several locations in the previous century, the restaurant's last move in 1967 was to a location on the California Street cable car line.
In 1999, R.W. Apple called the restaurant, "old-fashioned, a nostalgic shrine to local piscine tradition." According to Apple, the restaurant's best known dish is cioppino, a seafood soup created in San Francisco, and other California seafood specialities like Petrale sole and sand dabs. Herb Caen, longtime columnist of the San Francisco Chronicle, was a fan of Tadich's version of the Hangtown Fry, a Gold Rush era combination of scrambled eggs, bacon and oysters. In The New York Times, Sadie Stein wrote in 2013 that the restaurant is "Festive without being stuffy, it offers a taste of the San Francisco of yore while embracing the present day." The restaurant operated a branch in Washington, D.C. from 2015 to 2018

This beautiful church was incorporated in 1923. Work was started the same year toward a new edifice and was completed in 1924. The rectory was moved north to parallel the construction, facing the lake.
L. Phillips Clarke, of Harvey and Clarke, was the architect for the new church, as he was later for the new parish hall in 1929 and for the new rectory and Sunday School rooms built later. Wilcox Bros. Inc., the contractor, built the church and also did repair work after it suffered hurricane damage in 1928.
The marble and mosaic work was done by craftsmen from Italy, who brought much of the material with them. Louis S. Clarke (whose father, C. J. Clarke, had donated the community building in which the original church group met, and whose son was the architect for the present building) made the chandeliers for the church by hand, together with the chains by which they hang, all of which he forged himself. The marble altar and the original Skinner organ were made possible by generous donations.
On February 24, 1924, the first service was held in the new church. The old church building was then used as a parish hall until it was destroyed in the hurricane of September 1928.
Some features that identify it as the original church building are the arch detail over the entrance, the screen doors, and one of the small front windows.
In May 1929 work was started on the first two units of a new parish hall. The cornerstone was laid on July 14th and work was completed in September. A choir room, kitchen quarters, and a new rectory were added in 1939. Funding for and work on the Sunday school rooms which frame the current courtyard commenced in 1948.
The collapse of the land boom in 1926, the killer hurricane in 1928, and the stock market crash of 1929 brought development to a halt in the region. Holy Trinity, holding a large debt for the new building, endured a very difficult struggle and at one point foreclosure was threatened. However, in 1938 as the depression waned, the debt was restructured and disaster was averted.
The formal consecration of the church was held on April 29, 1945, after the mortgage was retired. The event was hailed in the press as "the high point in the history of the Episcopal congregation in West Palm Beach." The consecration services were conducted by Bishop John D. Wing of the Diocese of South Florida, before a congregation that packed the building. The Rev. William S. Turner was rector at that time.
Memorials and gifts throughout the years, too numerous to detail in this limited space, have enhanced the beauty of the church. A large Skinner organ was added to the original organ in 1939, and other additions were subsequently made. The stained glass windows were installed over a period spanning sixty years, with the first window, the large rose window over the altar, being installed in 1924. The most ambitious window addition program occurred in the 1950s with the Rev. James Stirling as Rector. The most recently installed windows, in the south wall of the Baptistry, were installed in 1984.
Having originally been started with the help of Bethesda-by-the-Sea, Holy Trinity has in turn through the years helped start five other Episcopal churches in the area: St. Andrews Church, Lake Worth, St. Georges, Riviera Beach, St. Marks, Palm Beach Gardens, The Church of the Holy Spirit, West Palm Beach, and Grace Episcopal Church, West Palm Beach.

Whilst on our 1989 Benelux rover, we had to change trains at Arlon, probably because we were on a local train from Libramont which may have terminated there, whereas our destination was Luxembourg.
Late in the afternoon 5217 heads up a northbound freight through the station. This loco was originally built to the classical American Nohab design, but it was bodywork was later modified in Belgian service.
After retirement, it was brought back to work with a contractor in association with railway construction works in the south of France. This was between 2013 and 2017.
