The managers parking spot needed some attention. You saw the finished picture earlier and thought I just backed in and set up camp didn't you? Bringing in gravel and using the tractor the spot was graded and leveled. One side was off almost 2 feet.
So how hard could it be to run a campground? It fell in our laps so we decided to give it a try! I will put up a series of photos of our campground life.
This is where I spent 3 months (July - early October) as a Campground manager. Seneca Shadows Campground in Seneca Rocks, West Virginia. It is in the Seneca Rocks - Spruce Knob Recreation area that is part of the Monongahela National Forest
Genesee and Wyoming's Maryland Midland Railway out of Union Bridge is primarily a cement-heavy operation. Hauling the heavy stuff to CSX connections on both ends of its former Western Maryland, it is the lifeblood of the MMID.
On a sunny and warm morning, a G&W SD45-carbody rebuild and the Heritage MMID GP38-3 were dragging some hoppers out of the cement plant in Union Bridge for Emory Grove.
IC 9632 sits outside the loading bays at Neenah Paper giving you a real good idea on how steep the little hill up to the building is. The engineer really has to dig in to get a couple loads moving up the hill for spotting.

Known as the Cathedral of the Moors, the Grade I-listed medieval church at Altarnun on Bodmin Moor has Norman origins but was largely rebuilt in the 15th century from stones from an earlier church plus unquarried stones from the moor. The font dates from Norman times and features a fierce bearded head, still with some colours remaining. The altar rail extends the full width of the church, embracing the chancel and aisles. The benches date from the 16th century, and the 79 bench ends are among the finest in Cornwall. This is considered by Simon Jenkins to be one of England's Thousand Best Churches.

- www.kevin-palmer.com - I've seen fogbows before, but they are so transient they're difficult to capture. The fog must be just the right thickness with the sun at just the right angle. The fog was moving around so much it changed by the second. This was on Red Grade Road in the Bighorn Mountains.

The Grade II* Listed Guildhall in Salisbury, Wiltshire.
The first guildhall, known as the "Bishop's Guildhall", was built on the initiative of the Bishop of Salisbury, Simon of Ghent, in around 1314. It was so-called because this was the place where the bishop would exercise his feudal rights.
A second building, known as the "Council House" was built by the Merchants Guild to the north of the original building in 1585. After the Council House was burnt down in a fire at a banquet, it was rebuilt, with a gift from Jacob Pleydell-Bouverie, 2nd Earl of Radnor, in 1780.
In 1785 the bishop gave up his rights as clerk of the market and in return was released from his obligations to maintain the guildhall. This enabled the old Bishop's Guildhall, which had become dilapidated, to be demolished.
The current building, which was designed by Sir Robert Taylor and William Pilkington, was built on the site of the former Bishop's Guildhall, and completed in 1795. The design involved a portico with Doric order columns with triglyph frieze above; tall arched windows were inserted on each side of the portico.

Still tackling the steep 2.8% average "Camelback Grade" westbound into Canton, North Carolina, Blue Ridge Southern's 4 pack of EMD's thunder up the former Southern Railway Murphy Branch.
In 1961, the first vice-chancellor of the UEA, Frank Thistlethwaite, had approached architect Denys Lasdun, an adherent of the "New Brutalist" trend in architecture, who was at that time building Fitzwilliam College in Cambridge, to produce designs for the permanent campus. Lasdun presented a model and an outline plan at a press conference in April 1963, but it took another year to produce more detailed plans, which diverged considerably from the model. As a result, the first buildings did not open until late-1966.
Lasdun moved the teaching and research functions into a single 460-metre (1,510-foot) long concrete block following the contour of the site. A walkway was built alongside the teaching wall, providing access to its various entrances, with frontage roads running below. Attached to the southern side of the walkway, six linked blocks of terraced accommodation residences were constructed to appear as one structure. The residences became known as the "Ziggurats" and were designed by Lasdun to recall "vineyards in France or a rocky outcrop on a slope".

The Saluda Grade is the steepest standard-gauge mainline railway in the USA and opened in July 1878. The three mile railway grade ranged from 3.7%- 4.7%.
The railway line was constructed to connect Spartanburg, South Carolina, Asheville and North Carolina through the Blue Ridge Mountains. It has been out of service since 2001.
Since 2001 the vibrant green vegetation around the railway has started to rapidly grow over the tracks and in some sections completely engulfed the railway. Beneath some of the railway it has been heavily eroded, which has caused many railway ties to become detached from the railway lines.
