Why'd you ever want to leave?
Why'd you go home?
Why, when the view is this good?
They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Does the beauty go away if you stay too long?
Does it lose its impact?
What is enough?
How much is too much?
How can I know?
When can I go back?
I want to go back.
I always want to go back.

for all of us. The elk cow to the right had to go back and get her baby calf because it wouldn't come. She looked rather perturbed judging by her ears being pinned back every once in a while. The very last baby was hurt in the hind end when it climbed the bank. If it doesn't heal soon things won't look good for it, the predators prey on the weak. Taken from my kayak.

The Ehrbachklamm is wild and romantic, even in overcast winter weather.
Sometimes I ride my bicycle through the places of strange calmness. It will force you to stop and unmount and observe. The forest communicate on strange levels with the soul. It keeps your counciousness out of the game, leaving only the weird sence of spiritual experience...
Northern class 150 unit 150104 (partnered with 150138) departs Blackpool South with the 3.16pm to Colne (2N78).
With a scheduled 4 minute turnaround at this terminus, there's barely time for the driver to walk from one end of the train to the other before setting off again. On this day the turnaround was even tighter seeing as arrival from Colne was 2 minutes late.
Blackpool South, with its single platform and evidence of former glories en route, is very much the Cinderella line into this popular northern seaside town. In fact a significant part of the remaining platform has been abandoned to nature, as seen in this shot. By contrast Blackpool North is vibrant, recently electrified, and boasts fast direct services to London Euston. No surprise It also handles the vast majority of passenger arrivals and departures.
I arrived into this station on a sunny Sunday afternoon and walked the two miles or so along the bracing, enjoyable and ever vibrant promenade before waltzing back inland to North Station for the rather faster ride back to Preston.
A bit of a record shot so I'm not expecting a ten from Len. Sure I spotted Madge though.....

Making donuts at home can be a delightful experience! Here's a basic recipe for classic fried donuts:
Essential Ingredients:
2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110°F / 45°C)
3/4 cup lukewarm milk
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for rolling)
Oil for frying (vegetable, canola, or peanut oil)
For Glaze:
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Activate the yeast: In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water. Let it sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.
Make the dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture, lukewarm milk, sugar, salt, butter, and egg. Gradually add the flour and mix until a dough forms.
Knead: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Cut out donuts: Roll the dough out to about 1/2 inch thick. Use a donut cutter or two different-sized round cutters to cut out donuts and holes. Place them on a floured surface and let them rise again until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Fry: Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F (190°C). Fry donuts in batches, turning them once, until golden brown (1-2 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels.
Glaze: Mix the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Dip the warm donuts into the glaze and let them cool on a wire rack.
Enjoy your homemade donuts! 🍩
One of the many money shots of Horseshoe Bluff in the Mines of Spain State Park near Dubuque,IA. This historic park stems from the areas beginnings when Spain owned the area and lead mining was king.The Park,which contains many areas that are listed as National Historic Landmarks,was first developed as a lead mining site by Julien Dubuque. His grave site is on a scenic bluff overlooking the Mississippi River within the park....

Visited a very quite Moraine Lake ("above" Lake Louise). the parking lot at L. Louise was full again so we decided to try our luck at Moraine. No problems parking there. You should have seen it last year, people lining up at the road entrance at 5:00AM to get up to the lake. Like it a bit better this way. ;( though mixed feelings about the reasons !! see date if you remember those times.

Siento la necesidad de desconectar de internet y de todo lo que eso conlleva; de las redes sociales o antisociales, como quieran llamarlas…
Creo que me tomaré ese tiempo (no sé si largo o corto) para conectar conmigo misma.
Without a doubt, the alpinism is an amazing experience with a little bit of adrenaline dose and outstanding landscapes.
This image is taken during the ascent to Island Peak. After a big snowstorm, nobody had come at the summit, because a lot of snow. However, we decided to try. All in all, it was going to be an authentic adventure.
Sin duda alguna el alpinismo es una emocionante experiencia con un toque de adrenalina e impresionantes paisajes.
Esta imagen fue tomada durante el ascenso al Island Peak. Después un gran tormenta de nieve, nadie había conseguido llegar a la cima por la gran cantidad de nieve. No obstante, decidimos intentarlo. Con todo, iba a ser una gran aventura.
