8 weeks today until we fly out again for the UK. We think we should be made honorary citizens as we have been there many times now.
We will be staying two nights in Dornie which is walking distance to Eilean Donan Castle - one of my favourite castles.

The ladies have spent literally days getting ready for the event! Their stylist is completely exhausted and only wants to sit back with a cocktail (or two) and watch the show!

The final RoadRailer Train ever, NS Train 255, speeds west toward its terminus in Kansas City passing through the sweeping curve at Arnold Illinois. NS 9936 was likely the most photographed GE locomotive on this day as numerous chase vehicles and many people from across the country came out to document the final run of this unique train and staple of rail traffic in the Midwest.
The long rumored day has finally come and the Countdown to Extinction is in its final hours. Once this train arrives in Kansas City RoadRailer Trains will be a thing of the past. The day prior which was the last day that both the east and westbound trains ran was rumored to be a Symphony of Destruction with a couple of vehicle crashes, although I have yet to actually see any evidence of such destruction. But here on the final day with the final chase of the final RoadRailer train it was much different than the rumored chaos of the day prior. The day featured many staples of summer train chases in the Midwest, mainly High Speed Dirt road driving, and Sweating Bullets on this Mid 90s day in late August, but This Was [Our] Life on that day, and I don't think many who where there would've changed that. It was a great time with some great people and was a fitting send off to one of, if not the most unique trains operating in the Midwest.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pain froze you, for years — and fear — leaving scars.
But now, as though miraculously, it seems, here you are
walking easily across the ground, and into town
as though you were floating on air, which in part you are,
or riding a wave of what feels like the world's good will —
though helped along by something foreign and older than you are
and yet much younger too, inside you, and so palpable
an X-ray, you're sure, would show it, within the body you are,
not all that far beneath the skin, and even in
some bones. Making you wonder: Are you what you are —
with all that isn't actually you having flowed
through and settled in you, and made you what you are?
The pain was never replaced, nor was it quite erased.
It's memory now — so you know just how lucky you are.
You didn't always. Were you then? And where's the fear?
Inside your words, like an engine? The car you are?!
Face it, friend, you most exist when you're driven
away, or on — by forms and forces greater than you are.

Beneath the sky where starlight spills,
The Seine flows soft, the city stills.
The Eiffel Tower, crowned in gold,
Keeps secrets of the stories told.
Ten whispers float through winter's air,
From cobblestones to Montmartre’s stairs.
Nine lanterns glow in amber haze,
Their flicker paints the night in praise.
Eight lovers pause by old cafés,
Where time slows down in soft bouquets.
Seven bells from Notre Dame chime,
A lullaby to fleeting time.
Six shadows dance on river glass,
As midnight dreams begin to pass.
Five violins beneath the moon,
Play waltzes wrapped in silver tune.
Four kisses bloom on crimson lips,
While champagne sparkles in each sip.
Three seconds left—the city sighs,
As fireworks bloom in velvet skies.
Two—la lumière begins to gleam,
A fleeting pulse, a fleeting dream.
One—the city bursts in song,
A Paris night both bright and long.
Confetti rains on cobbled streets,
Where past and future gently meet.
Oh Paris! Timeless, bright, and clear,
You wear so well each passing year.
