I've just about recovered from what turned out to be a rather gruelling day photting the Royal Ascot Ladies day coaches in an energy sapping 30 degrees heat! An amazing 225 coaches (including a few buses) arrived for the biggest day (Thursday 19th June 2025) at the Berkshire race course.
It's impossible to capture everything as there were 5 coach parking areas (#6, #8, #10N, #10S, #10E) in use today, although #6 now has very few visitors. Among those that caught my eye was a Van Hool Astrobel, a brand new Barnes Higer, a Volvo 9700 from Royal Motorways, and the unique in the UK King Long C9.
With Saturday expected to be even warmer, if you decide to visit the coach parks, then TAKE PLENTY OF WATER!!

When it was new and beautiful. Now it's long-abandoned, and parts have been demolished. My photos (exterior and interior) of many visits here, including the now-demolished sections, are here: www.flickr.com/photos/katherineofchicago/sets/72157603381...
Observation: While the Sheriff's car was there, the panhandler stayed along the side of the road; otherwise he was out among the traffic.
Amanda Cook's band will bring some of my favorite musicians to the stage at the Charlotte Bluegrass Festival this weekend. They'll play twice on Friday afternoon, at 3:15 and 7:50.
Amanda's a fine singer, and her band has an excellent personality.
Here's Amanda on guitar. That's Josh Faul playing bass in the background (there's a rule: bass players hide in the background).

Not only am I a voracious collector of House Plans, I collect cook-booklets. I think that it is time for me to unleash them... Maybe "The Daily Bungalow Cooks"?
A beautifully illustrated cook-booklet from the K C Baking Powder Company, 1933. More than 20 recipes for cakes, cookies, shortcakes, dumplings, and puddings.
These should print nicely in the large size, set at about 80% on the printer. If you make one of the recipes, we'd love to see it.

Cook is a railway station and crossing loop on the standard gauge Trans-Australian Railway from Adelaide to Perth, with no inhabited places around.
The town was created in 1917 when the railway was built and is named after former Prime Minister Joseph Cook. The town depended on the Tea and Sugar Train for the delivery of supplies, and is on the longest stretch of straight railway in the world, at 479 km which stretches from Ooldea to beyond Loongana. When the town was active, water was pumped from an underground Artesian aquifer but now, all water is carried in by train. Attempts have been made to introduce trees and other vegetation, but these have not been successful.
Today, it is said to have a resident population of four, and is essentially a ghost town. The town was effectively closed in 1997 when the railways were privatised and the new owners did not need a support town there, although the diesel refuelling facilities remain, and there is overnight accommodation for train drivers. Cook is the only scheduled stop on the Nullarbor Plain for the Indian Pacific passenger train across Australia and has little other than curiosity value for the passengers. The bush hospital is closed, and the shop is only opened while the Indian Pacific is in town. It has a few houses and fuel tanks for the locomotives. The crossing loop can cross trains up to 1800m long.
The cook was preparing his vegetables for the days meals this morning and
sun through the galley porthole washed over his stainless steel tray full of
the days ingredients. Nearly too much light but I'll put it up anyway.

The beautiful Cook Park in Orange, in the central tablelands of New South Wales. Cook Park is one of the oldest parks in Orange, having been established in the 1880s. While the autumn colours hadn't peaked it was a majestic park to walk around. Minutes walk from the Orange town centre, it's easily accessible.
