On a rainy morning at the end of May, I thought I would brighten the day with some cherry blossoms from early April. Garry Point Park, Steveston, Richmond, B.C.

This photo was taken just over two years ago, funny how much time can change things.

Spontaneous street portrait from Glasgow, Scotland. Captured at a protest against President Trump in January last year. There will be quite a big protest against Trump in George Square today and I'll be there with my camera. Wishing you all a great weekend ahead!
Just dusting off my archives. Remembering the warmer days of summer. Brrrrr chilly here in Dixie, if it's gonna be 14 degrees, a little snow would be nice. It would definitely keep the stores busy, I haven't seen a milk and bread run for quite some time. LOL!
HBW!
hope you don't mind revisiting

Along the north shore of Lake Ontario, on one of winters' coldest days, water from waves crashing against the rocky shoreline freezes quickly. This is a sharp contrast to the current humidex readings of around 40C / 90F in Southern Ontario and upper New York State.

As the current lockdown has given me some spare time , a look in the loft has found numerous boxes of slides. In amongst them i have found a few railway images taken from a good while ago. My scanner does not do this slide justice as regards quality but its the best I've got.
Double headed class 37's headed by 37687 and another unknown at Water Orton in i believe February 1990 .
37687 entered service as D6881 on 21-10-1963.
Re-numbered as 37610 in 1995 and still in service 14-04-2020.
One of the Chinese built S12 power sets number 923 departs Peradeniya with the 1025 Colombo to Badulla. She is heading north to Kandy only 6 kilometers away where she will pick up passengers and then reverse passing this same spot 30 minutes later.
This beautiful gantry is lower quadrant and reminds me of any number of gantries once found on the GWR. Peradeniya is a triangular junction with 3 signal boxes and dozens of semaphores. It is a magical place.
Since Cryptid and the Wolves dragged me back to a med unit, I had been laying in bed, recovering. Several more attempts had been made on my life. The CO insisted that a guard be posted at the entrance of the med tent, but I didn't trust my life to some GI. I had begun sleeping with a knife under my pillow, and after more gas attacks, an oxygen tank. After the medics bandaged me up, I donned my armor once again. That too, I had begun sleeping in. I trusted no one, and was always wary. The flashbacks had stopped, possibly due to the intense stress I was under. Hopefully, it stayed that way. Man, I can't wait to get out in the field again, miles away from everything except those I trust. Anything would be better than this living hell I was in. Wait. What was that? There was a noise outside.
A masked face peered around the corner; I threw one of my knives. The face ducked back at the last second, as the knife ripped a hole in the far side of the tent. "Come on and finish it, you bastard!" i yelled, hatred and fury dripping from my voice. I heard the sound of rapidly retreating footsteps. Thus it went, night after night. I hardly slept anymore, with sounds from the camp waking me up, heart pounding. I could not live like this for long...
Several weeks later...
Finally, I was back in action. After several days of attacks, a trio of old Silent Wolves veterans stood vigil over me, switching off every few hours. I then had a chance to rest, feeling safe. The attacker didn't show up, given the presence of the armed men. And it paid off. Now, I was back on my feet , and preparing my belongings to leave the infirmary. I still had an ugly scar where the bullet penetrated, and the wound twinged every now and again. But I would be all right. I strapped on my armor, and threw on my pack. I gave it a quick, weight-settling jostle, and began to head out of the door. And then, I saw a grenade, standard USDF issue, minus the pin, roll towards my feet...
FURX SD40-2 7934 leads a ballast train west past the searchlights at B-plant in Galesburg, IL. The searchlights are long gone, the area is now triple track, the Main St crossing in the background is now a underpass and of course power like this rarely finds the mainline.

So this is one of my picks for today's Flashback Friday .. I will never forget when I went to see them in concert when this album came out .. My mom decided to call the radio station here when they were having a contest .. and she got through and got my cousins and I tickets to the sold out concert ..
I just so happened to see one of my neighbors there and she hung out with us .. little did I know that she would have a HUGE asthma attack and we got to go backstage and while we were back there guess who we met? Yep New Edition .. They came over to see if she was ok .. Thanks Nancy for a memorable night in my childhood lol

Our brake van tour of Scunthorpe Steelworks was great and gave a fascinating insight to the plant and provided some amazing photo opportunities. As if that wasn't enough our hosts hooked up 4 Billet wagons and did a couple of run pasts. What a treat, and it was fantastic to see the ex industrial 0-6-0 called Cranford (Built by the Avonside Engine Company in 1924) doing what she was built to do.
I wasn't sure how to present this shot. The lighting and livery made it extremely difficult to balance.
I opted for this black and white offering as it seemed more natural and authentic.
Big thanks to the crew for accommodating us.
To tulip time.
Hope you have a wonderful Sunday and a good start to the new week. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.
