Poor Vidalia longs to cuddle, but Cumin wants nothing of it. Thankfully, Vidalia regularly cuddles with Curio and Mr. Grigsby.

Having dropped off 1108 at Lithgow, 1107 and 1106 continue West, as they head into Tarana with a 12 hour late running 9865 empty ore train, bound for Blayney to load.
Climbing the Blue Mountains near Bell, 1108 suffered a collapsed axel, causing the train to be stopped and requiring immediate repairs. The bearings were subsequently held up with blocks of wood and the train was moved at 5km/h until Lithgow, where the locomotive was finally detached from the lead and put into a siding.
The 1100 class typically only leads with the cab facing forward, however on this occasion, with no turning facilities available, the train continued on "long end leading" at a top speed of 50km/h to Blayney.

One of a number of small streams that cross this landscape - I was glad of the bridge as there was a significant amount of water in it.
Alright, it's been a slow week over here so I'll just post an obligatory Bizzaro and Bat-zarro (or Batman Bizzaro... or whatever)
Because I feel that if I own the coveted SDCC Bizzaro and don't shoot him with Bat-zarro then like, what am I doing with my life?
I don't even know man.
One thing I have always dearly loved about where I live is the breathtaking skies. Florida has its share of turbulent weather, which often brings very dramatic cloud formations. On windy days, if can be like watching a kaleidoscope of billowy change ups that create scene after scene of intense beauty!
I took many shots on this particular day at Ponce Inlet. It was impressive, with such low lying cloud formations that if felt like you could almost reach out and touch them. The ocean was more green than normal for this area, which didn't come through in the original shot, so I brought that out in post processing.
I'd like to thank those of you who have been praying for my friend, Don Briggs, over the last few days. He's really had a trying time, and is back home recouping and getting much needed rest. Please pray for his continued recovery and strength. He still isn't feeling very well, as could be expected after having a stroke. He was well enough last night to post a remarkable grasshopper shot, though, so I hope you'll check it out! www.flickr.com/photos/donbriggs/28718709431/in/dateposted/
The size is between 5 and 6 centimeters. You can make them as big as you want. Just cut the thread the length you ,like.
How many will fit in my mouth at once? It appears that only one will fit at a time, though he kept trying to shove more in. lol..
This is in the yard on top of the fence.
1, 2, & 3 Plate inclines. One plate is too shallow, but 3 plates seems pretty steep, so a 2 plate rise it is
How did it happen that their lips came together? How does it happen that birds sing, that snow melts, that the rose unfolds, that the dawn whitens behind the stark shapes of trees on the quivering summit of the hill? A kiss, and all was said
