The Dinorwic quarry is a large former slate quarry, now home to the Welsh National Slate Museum, located between the villages of Llanberis and Dinorwig in North Wales. It was the second largest slate quarry in Wales, indeed in the world, after the neighbouring Penrhyn quarry near Bethesda.
It covered more than 700 acres (283 ha) consisting of two main quarry sections with 20 galleries in each and a number of ancillary workings. Extensive internal tramway systems connected the quarries using inclines to transport slate between galleries.

The tiny sanderlings were impressively effective hunters! As waves receded, they would spot tiny crustaceans breathing through the wet sand, dig them out when their sharp beaks, and hop away before the waves arrived again.
Digging the new potato bed. Over time, we will gradually improve the soil by adding lots of organic matter. Growing potatoes in heavy soil will help to improve the structure.

Young ram and ewe beside lodge playground afternoon of the second day and the ending of the major storm.... i'll put up a short video of a buffalo in the same spot the morning before..... and a still of a small band of deer the morning after this shot... Big game are drawn to the grounds in major storms primarily for our spring water and short feed near the ground water source...Experience has taught me not to manicure lodge grounds so there might be food for the wildlife especially when the winters grow long. These stress times are critical for big games survival and I try not to disturb them in any way so as not to cause them to burn vital energy stores hoping they will make it to spring... So too there is a certain safety I think being near a human source during deep snow because the predators are having a hay day right now.... there are lion, coyote and wolf kills nearby and in every direction of the lodge right now...

My neighbors and I begin digging out after the Nor'easter dumped 29 inches (NWS official report) of snow, overnight. It took me 3 hours, using a snowblower, to clear my driveway and the walkway to the front door. 5/6 foot drifts were not uncommon.
The mail box at the end of the driveway stands 4 foot.
