Le rideau tombe sur l'année 2025. Oublions bien vite tout ce qui a pu nous peiner, nous chagriner, nous frustrer pour nous tourner vers une année 2026 que nous vous souhaitons pleine de petits et grands bonheurs. Bonne année 2026.
Cedar Lake Trail
Jackson County Illinois
I found these stacked rocks on the Cedar Lake Trail in Southern Illinois. I have hiked all over the United States and often find stacks of rocks along the trail. Typically on glades at the top of hills where the vegetation is sparse and rocks are plentiful. In this case this rock stack was probably used as a trail mark since it would be difficult to put a post in this rocky soil. These rock stacks are called Cairns which is derived from Scottish Gaelic.
I have never seen a smoother-running Accucraft Ruby. When you consider this one hasn't had the inside/outside admission swapped, it is mind-blowing. It also has the stock pistons. A lot of us upgraded to a larger bore piston.
My friend Mike spent a while fiddling with the eccentrics to nail the timing perfectly.

I need to find out what kind of tree this is in the forest.
They are small understory trees with leaves shaped almost like an elm leaf.
I'm going to tie a ribbon around some of their trunks so I can go back and see what emerges this spring.
A solitary fly agaric mushroom adds a splash of color to this serene forest scene near Visegrád, Hungary.

Not sure if this is an anvil crawler or what?? Most of this event occurs outside the cloud.
Brightest star is the planet Jupiter.

One of the most picturesque stone bridges of Zagori, Kokkoris bridge is located among the villages of Koukouli, Dilofo and Kipoi in central Zagori, Epirus, Greece. Built in 1750 under the sponsorship of Noutsos Karamisinis from the nearby bradeto, the 24m long and 14m high arch bridge was repaired at the end of the 18th century by Alexis Noutsos and renewed by Grigoris Kokkoros in 1910-1911. Kokkoros owned the mill nearby the bridge, hence its colloquial name “bridge of Kokkoros”, although it is also known as “bridge of Noutsos”.
